The Cherry Bombs? Yeah I've heard of 'em, wonder what it'd sound like if I threw one in where my res used to be and left my Flo-Pros on.

good start up, good idle, nice low rpms. but in the higher range IMO sounds way too high pitched and poppy

what would be the solution to fix the high rpm sound but keep that low end sound?

That sounds killer in the low end.
Nice growl to it.

High end sound kinda ruins it, but most V6 exhausts have that problem.
Is that because of the higher rpm's of a V6 engine, compared to a V8 that doesn't need to rev as high?

Take two plastic bags. One is a 2 gallon, one a quart size bag. Blow them up with air. Tie them off. Then pop them. Listen to the sound difference. If you popped them both slowly, they would sound similar, but the faster you start popping them, the bigger change in tone you will have. Same goes for our engines. Pop a 231 engine cylinder, bounce if off the crossover, the cat, and then down one narrow 2.5" exhaust, and it's gonna sound bad. But it's a small price to pay for having such a sweet ride =)

Good feedback, no wonder the guy didn't have a drive-by.

I will respond to his youtube that way since he responded to mind by not thinking he kinda sounded bettter than my Super 44's.
