Sounds pretty good to me. What are you looking for, something louder?

Try deleting the u-bend first, that is what I have on mine, 40's w/u-bend delete, and it is a bit louder and beefier than how yours is right now. Might be just what you're looking for?

Sorry a few days late on the reply, been busy!!

Here is a link to a few before and after pics of a Buick, but the same deal is on our MC's. Just before the Resonator and has the O2 sensor bung on it, which will need replaced onto the new straight pipe.

Cuts out some restriction, I like the sound, was going to replace the res also, but am happy with how it sounds with the stocker and my setup!! Hope this helps, wish I could get a sound clip for ya, will try to get one up.

Mike

i remember reading that 7th gens had them also, the engines have similar horsepower and if anything the ubend robs the car of power.

the ubend won't really make your exhaust louder but you could put in a shorter resonator and like you said high flow cats

Im pretty sure the 7th gens dont have a u bend. I remember a while ago a member posted a pic comparison between the 6th and 7th gen exhausts.
