Is there any way to get a louder exhaust note fron my 97' slt 5.2 without buying a whole new exhaust system? I drove a daytona version 5.9 and the sound was awsome!

The cheapest and easiest way to so is, Take out the muffler and put in a straight pipe in its place. Will sound bad ass and will be loud but not annoying.

Hey 94 Steve, I was thinking of the possibility of some sort of resonator that will attach to the exhaust. Only to accent the sound I already have?

derek it will let exhaust and sound out before the end of the pipe, same way a hole in your exhaust will make the vehicle sound different, also gives a few extra cfm

About where should the holes be drilled and how big? Will this cause any problems within the exhaust system?

hahaha...drill holes.....I did that to my 5.0 stang when I was 16. Now I'm 21 and I could afford to buy an exhaust system. `,=o) Just get a flowmaster and some 2 1/2" pipe after the cat or 3" if you want it louder, oh yeah, Put a 3" piece of pipe about 10" in length after the flowmaster muffler and get a turn down pointed at the ground.(louder than having a tail pipe thats for sure...)

Thanks folks but i think I may have to head for some Flowmasters. Read several posts and it seem that most are leading that direction. I can afford them but i am concearne about changing things from factory tolerances. My neighbor has a chevy that he has totally redone and it seems like he is always repairing things daily whenever he runs the thing! I don't want this seeings how my Dak is also my work vehicle and runs constantly every day. Any advise ( real advise only would be appreciated and any input greatful.)
