Post sounds files of 3.8 dynomax cat-back exhaust??

Does anyone have a sound file of a 3.8 camaro with a dynomax cat back? i want to upgrade my exhaust system to something that sounds good, and not no 4 cylinder. So i was wondering what sound would i be getting if i get the dynomax cat back. Thanks for your time.

I think someone should get a collection of sound files of various exhaust's and put them all together on one website.

I have a 3.8l with a dynomax and it sounds a lot more throaty then flows. The person I had install the muffler ONLY does mufflers and he said dynomax sounds and adds more hp then flows (i was originaly going to get flows). So who ever says dynomax is high pitch is mistaken. The guy also said the higher the RPMs on flows the more of a high pitch sound you get. No, I don't work for dynomax, but on top of the hp gains and sound dynomax mufflers are cheaper.

muffler was broken in, headers were a very recent addition.

Ya, i have the dynomax and personally i like it.. It sounds pretty deep all around, my only complaint is when u hit it hard in first, then let off fast, every now and then it will make a raspy, hollow sounding noise... I think it maybe cuased by my 3.25" chrome tips, they are 18" long and i think they create a tunneling noise.. otherwise i love it, i didnt really notice a hp gain, but in first it does shift at higher rpm's now

Well , if money is no problem for you then you could always go with Borla exhaust . I ordered it yesterday. It is stainless steal and probly alot stronger than dynomax .
