There is a member on occ and he is catless, no resonator and he put a stock supra muffler on it and it sounds quiter than stock. Sounded really good in my mind because of the nice tone it had. I think he got it from a scrap yard for free haha.

Yea the exhaust leak was really hard to find and I thought it was just the exhaust. I ended up re torqueing everything and now its about half as loud much quieter.

The stock exhaust looks like a handicapped person designed it.
Go to gm touring and it will be significantly quieter and still good flowing.. Or buy the ZZP whisper resonator. 2.5" it is way quiter (ask bluelightning) his exhaust went from loud rice to mellow and nice (except at wot when it sounds like a jet lol)
Restrictive? Damn I didn't know a 2.5" exhaust was restrictive (especially on a base model). However it does go down to 2.25" over the axle. GM designed the stock exhaust pretty well.
