    all BOMB style mufflers sound the same... well its almost un noiceablke difference... they are all very deep and low sounding... just get the style you like and get it welded to a 2.25 inch catback

    i have the Bomz Racing GT-spec muffler on my car. I love it. If you don't like being loud though, i don't recommend it, cuz its extremely extremely loud. It goes along great with DC headers and 2.25 catback piping, no resonator.

    I have pacesetter headers, straight pipe, pacesetter exhaust piping w/an Arospeed Bomber Series Muffler. I ported the headers out a lot and it is really loud. It's really deep sounding though.

    if you get the gt-spec, dc header, 2.25 catback with no res., you'll be loud as hell and have everybody's attention, like mine does. Granted, i still get the unwanted attention of law enforcement, but thats ok. i have no emissions here, so its all good. It'll be even worse when i slap the high flow cat on. Go for it dude.

    If you want LOUD.....run a straight manifold or if you have a header just run it. j/k. bomz mufflers are pretty good i hear.

    straigh header is loud... i run a 2 inch pipe from header back with a cheapo stainless muffler... its pretty quiet till 3000 when it starts making cool sounds... i have the silencer in so its real quiet.. but at 3000 it gets loud
