I have Flowmaster 40 Series True dual w/ H-pipe and it sounds GREAT! If you're going to stick with the single exhaust deffinitly go with MRT, those mufflers on a single exhaust sound AWESOME! Very Loud, very throaty and deffinitly muscular!

Oh one other thing, if you get a true dual with no H-pipe or X-pipe then it does actually sound somewhat ricey...

www.MRT-direct.com They have a V6 specific setup with mounts, clamp, and tip. Perfect for people who don't want to have a shop install and do it yourself. It's what I got and never could be happier. Drone is in all honestly very minimal, the muffler most of the time is quite mellow. I think people complaining about it are babies 
When you start the car and hear it growl you'll never look back.

The aftermarkets mufflers I have heard make the V6 sound "throaty." Nothing like that annoying "ricey" "fart-pipe four" sound.
Hopefully I will be upgrading my muffler situation soon. I'm still trying to decide which direction to go.

I say it's ricey. In fact, I think I'm going to leave my CAI off, I'm liking how quiet the car is with the stock airbox, and frankly, I cant feel the extra HP its supposed to be giving me.
To each their own, though. I just think it should be seen and not heard.

Flowmasters with H-pipe. Not ricey at all. Sounds great. A bit better performance overall. Don't get a plain "muffler"???

My experience with the C&L intake has been different from most on the forum. I do not hear the intake at all. I hear the GT take-off muffler, but not the intake (I'm a vert, so the car sounds differently). Stratjakt, I don't remember your set-up, but an aftermarket tune is designed to be used with a CAI, so your car may not perform well with the stock airbox (unless the tuner set it up to run with the stock intake).

I love the dual flows set-up. It doesn't sound ricey at all and it's well worth the money.

Putting a good aftermarket muffler is a great mod for our V6's... Free up about 10RWHP... a bit more if you go with the MRT...
yeah right, keep dreaming lol! We dont' get any HP gain with axel back on our V8's never mind the V6 lol. you do realize that 10RWHP is like a 15 crank gain right, man some of u crack me up, lol. i respect everybody on here but why would u modify the crap put of a V6, u should have bought a V8 then u'd be hauling some serious ass. rant over.
