OP- loud, deep, aggressive, cheap, perfect set up:

3" dynomax bullet, replace all piping from the Y pipe back with 3" piping, into the bullet. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/WLK-24222/ put it out the back at a 45 degree angle behind the rear tire with a 12" or larger x 3.5" tip. thats exactly what I have, and you found my video on youtube.

stock piping is 2.5" http://www.summitracing.com/parts/WLK-24215/
better to upgrade the piping from the Y back to 3" and run a 3" bullet, but all about how much you wanna spend.

So when you say after the y you mean after the stock cats right?
And is it alot of difference if I keep the 2.5 vs going to 3?
Also how much would it cost to upgrade to 3?
I love the sound in your video thats exactly like I want mine to sound like. Is it louder in person?

After Y is the intermediate pipe. Running 3" single is healthier for flow with a single intermediate pipe.

Not really much, a buck or so more per foot, not much. I would say a 3.5" tip for a single exhaust looks best.

Alright well I am getting my exhaust on next week 2 tips, muffler, and install all will run about $225. I am going with the bullet and a y after the bullet to 2 chrome tips 45d out the side behind the tires.

2.5" true duals with no cats, and Flowmaster 2 chamber mufflers and you will be heard well.
