Since you didn't post a video I'm assuming it sounds really bad, you should probably just sell your car.

The exhaust you posted in that vid doesn't sound like it has a lot of character. It just sounds like noise imo.

that clip don't sound like bees in a can. I personallly like it. And with the magnaflow I think it gets louder the more you go WOT. Sell it to me if you dont like it....I'll take it.

Yeah. Magnaflow exhaust isn't very unique sounding at all.

Who cares what other people think, if you like it, that's all that really matters. Give it a few weeks, once it "breaks in" it will tame down a bit. I notice once the car is tuned, it also gets a little quieter. If you still think it's too loud...add a resonator.

It's hard to make an inline 6 motor sound like a 4 banger. Cocaine is a helluva drug.

Weld on some resonators to get ride of the tincan rice sounds.

imo you get the most unique tones from the 3rd section (mufflers). bastuck, eisenmann, remus, etc. all have unique exotic tones
