    ^^ What he said. It just doesn't sound right. Much like dumping the exhaust at the diff, or twin 2.5" tips on a 1 1/4" pipe.

    I had a V6 for 12 years (Supercharged for 8yrs) wtih all different styles and sizes of exhausts fitted and I can honestly say none of them sounded any good, as you said the loud ones were like a big fart.
