its not a horrid sound, its an ok sound until 3k rpms then it gets ricy sounding but not horrid.... just about any aftermarket mufflers will sound the same on the v6.... at least all the ones i have heard and spintech seem to sound worse than flowmasters also. i would go with an oem gt take off exhaust and then you can change the mufflers out if you choose later on, this way you can give it a shot first and see if you like it.
The reason I like my takeoff's so much is because I don't get a drone while at highway speed. And it really isn't loud...just sounds good when I get on it, esp around 2500-3000
i have take offs but i heard the borla y kit and i was pretty impressed sounded nice. oh i put some cutouts on too sounds good till 3500 then i feel like im in my mgb with a glass packlol.... take offs or if your going just muffler borla is expensive but i think there the best... everyone has there preference though

yea, Brad's mach 1 takeoffs sound really good, being not too loud and no rice.... I am soon to have a local muffler shop put on some "mellowtones" which are supposed to be like flowmaster but sounding much better for a v6, and a little quieter
Takeoffs are the way to go. then if you want something else muffler wise, you can just swap them out. I've got takeoffs, and I'm going to leave them with the factory GT mufflers. I don't htink there's much if any HP to be gained by swapping them out, and I like the tone. They're quiet at idle, but they sound really aggressive at WOT, and not ricey like some of the aftermarket stuff does. And they ARE all stainless. I'd have to say it's the smart way to go.
i'm definately lookin more for sound quality and benefit to future upgrades than immediate power gain. cuz right now my sound just seems way to mellow. my friend's POS saturn sounded more aggresive than my stang today at the stop light at WOT.
Ditto man, I have dumps with 40 series and just kept my cats on, actually dosent sound to bad, I think it sounds pretty aggressive when I step on it and I hit about 3500-4000 rpms. If I get my camera fixed ill record the sound of my exhaust for you.
Get yourself a pair of turbo type generic mufflers, they sound very good on a V6 and and cost like less than half what flows do.
