What has a nice deep mellow tone? I don't want to sound like a 2fast 2furrious ricer on the hwy would just like a little sound but deep. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Thanks, I'll have to check them out. So far I can say borla is out. Never too much liked their over priced stuff anyways!:mrb:

FYI, the $500 overly priced dual Borla set up can be found for $350 here.

I concure. I have the dual borla as well and its nice. Its sounds a little like a honda when you frist start up but once the xB warms up its sounds so nice. Sometimes I speed just to hear the exhaust roar.

Yeah, I love the sound of it. I also added a Strup header to it. It did get raspier, but still doesn't sound like a freakin Civic on crack, lol!!!

I have to admit that sounds pretty sweet especially with the Strup header on there. Probably even better under a load. I'm just looking for a deeper tone, that's all.

Cheap mod, don't sound bad but looking for a deeper less raspy tone myself.

If you still have the resonator on most anything will sound mellow. I'll be hacking mine off in the near future and posting a vid.
