ive got one on my 94 pu and it can get loud if u sit there and rev it, but its not that bad. the idle tone is pretty nice, but depending on ur idle setting it can be loud enough to make ur mom mad at u. lol. know that from experiance. the tone is kinda a wick-wick at rly high rpms, kinda ricerish, but when sittin and lower rpms its a midrange solid tone. i think it sounds nice.

The second one skips a bunch.. but you get the idea.

here is my 3.0 with my glasspack - was only 2 weeks old, so its gotten louder now. On idle it sounds like a small v8, crusing at 2,000rpm is sounds dice, after about 2,800rpm it gets VERY loud

p.s sounds kinda crappy, it was filmed with an old digital camera

I get yelled at by old people all the time in my neighborhood.. But inside it sounds really good

p.s I dunno what is up, but in the videos it makes the exhaust have a very wierd sound to it, hard to explain but hopfally you know what I mean. If you do, then its totally different when you hear it in person. Hopfally I will get my video camera working so I can get some hi quality video's up

i've got purple hornies on my nova, and they would make a nice muffler for damn near anything. if i find cheap enuff headers to throw on the station wagon, i might put some on...
