wondering say you went with 2 chambered mufflers on a single exhaust pipe? would would that sound like ??? also what would it do if i used glasspacks as tips for my exhaust after my flowmaster? wouldnt that deepen it more and make it sound more agressive

resonator would quiet it down i dont realy want it to much quieter just more agressive as of now it sound good till about 2000 rpm possable 2500 and the sweet spot is 1500 so im thinking a good set of 3 inch round tips about 18inch long would make a good sound

we have a 3.7 dak with an exhaust at my dealership, i think he has a thrust muffler, (like mine) and it sounds... well pretty agressive, it sounds good up to about 3500 rpms then it just sounds like ****... keep in mind that this is my opinion (coming from a guy w/ V8) what i would do is youtube it and just search around, basically you can see/hear what various exhausts will sound like w/ your engine...
