Question Gibson swept side exhaust through Summit?

Can anybody tell me how loud the Gibson swept side exhaust being sold through Summit is as opposed to the stock 4.2L V6 exhaust? I'm looking for something that is no more than 10% louder that the stock exhaust, but with a better tone.

Thanks,
Chris

Thumbs up

I have the side swept on my truck and love it. I addition to the fact that it looks sweet with 3" stainless steel tailpipe, the tone is a little more throaty at idle, and you don't even notice any difference at highway speeds. It sounds the best in the 2000-3000 rpm range where it has a noticeable growl.

I think its a great way to let your engine breathe without letting the whole neighborhood know!
