Default Upgraded 05 V6

Hey everyone

I've decided to go with the K&N air Filter over an CAI, and I also got a single GT muffler. Just wantede to thank everyone for their inputs. I haven't recieved any of these parts yet, and was wondering about the sound difference in the GT muffler.
Anyone done this and have a wav file?

Thanks Again

I've read in other threads that the muffler is a 15-20 minute swap. No problems, it's a direct replacement using the existing hangars. I'll be doing it soon myself.

Haven't even looked into that yet. That's a good question. I have heard mixed reviews on the removal of it. I don't even know if it worth removing.

The V6 (or at least my V6) doesn't have the vapor trap (honeycomb air restrictor)
