What kind of exhausts are you guys running? I'm looking changing my exhaust soon. I've still got the stock exhuast and it sucks. Post up what you got and how many db's it registered. Thanks.

I'm looking to upgrade my exhaust so I was trying to get an idea of how high of db's you guys are getting with your exhaust setups. Thanks to all of those that have chimed in.
I've currently got hooker ceramic lt's and a tsp cat'd y pipe with stock exhaust.

The great thing about the trapps is that you can tune the system as you need.

Borla with an electric plate. Can adjust from quiet to not so quiet with a switch from inside the car.

I don't know the exact numbers for "closed" but it should be well below 90 dB.

I was thinking that exhaust was louder than that, but if not than that sounds like a good exhaust to go with. Does anyone else know how many db's they registered with their exhaust?

I've got the GMMG cat-back and I love it. Little loud though. Took two bags of steel wool and my wife in some tight jeans to get it passed. Makes it sound like an old muscle car. I definitely wouldn't recommend it with LT's and no cats. They don't make enough steel wool to quieten that much.

Well I have cat's now so I'm looking for something that's better than stock but will still pass the db check. I have a friend here that has the GMMG exhaust and it does sound good and I like the borla sound too but it seems like it will be way to loud.
