It would be a sound byte for you. I didn't go through the trouble of spending money to tow our last TC from the salvage yard to my house, and then to a muffler shop, pay $16 dollars to cut off the Blitz, just to scrap it in the end and get another exhaust entirely....lol. No, I love the ZPI exhaust, and I have vid of me racing Kenny in the Silver TC when it only had the exhaust on it. It sounds really good in the High RPM. It's loud, but not louder than my Blitz. I like how loud the Blitz is, and the deep rumble, makes me all gooey inside (it intimidates the locals, and makes people in Mustangs want to race me) . What I am doing is getting the crew to build me a new exhaust(this time around, I will have mandrel bent pipes because ZPI is doing it, and not some little rincky dinky TN muffler shop who claims to be a performance shop, but don't even have mandrel piping), so my money is still going to ZPI.

If your even slightly nervous about your car being loud, don't get an exhaust if you have a header. The car will be loud and obnoxious no matter what you do.
I started out with a Meagan header and WR Intake. I then added the CC S-pipe and the car sounded really good. Next, I tried a Greddy SP-2 and the car was too loud for me. It wasn't raspy, just loud. So, I decided if it was going to be loud anyways, I would go 2.5 inch all the way. So, I sold the SP-2 and added the Megan cat-back.
WOW, now the car is damn loud.

Just a few weeks back I had a Magnaflow resonator and high flow cat welded into the exhaust. Now, the car sounds really good. It's still loud but much better.
