Thanks. That was a year ago. Hard to remember all the mods that all of the forum members are doing and too lazy to reread threads. Sounds good!

Sounds great at WOT. Although I am already somewhat conscious of starting the car up at night when the neighbors are sleeping, so maybe not for me, haha.

Had this done to my muffler thanks to this thread. Sounds louder, but not too loud. No drone. I have active exhaust valves and they still work.

Awesome! Glad to hear there's at least one other that did it.

I've since changed to the quad setup on my V6. Of course, I couldn't leave it alone and had to modify it (probably more out of boredom than anything).

I'll make another thread about it, but here's a sneak peak...

Just replaced the resonator with an x-pipe in conjunction with this muffler mod. I think it sounds better now.

Do you think the same thing can be done to the v8 and have similar result?

i am sure it is possible. The OP just did it to a V8 muffler. He has pictures somewhere on this thread.
