Looking forward to the sound!

I do have to admit that after a long weekend teaching the drive home in silence is peaceful.
 
I go back and forth on the silence vs v8 sound. My GX is the Griswald family truckster, so as much as I'd love to hear the v8, I'm not sure the wife and kids would agree. Subbed to hear the results.
 
There are a few on here that have swapped out their exhaust for something that has that deep v8 throaty sound only when you step on it, but putting around town in traffic, should still be quiet. I don't recall who's done it or what the product is, but I'm sure they'll chime in soon.

Could be the magnaflow. I saw a build thread (Jade overland maybe?) that described the magnaflow overland exhaust in a similar manner.

Interested in hearing how it sounds!
 
Dirty Deeds is what you want.
 
Well gents, my Brockett Built resonated Y-pipe arrived today! Before and after sound clips coming soon. Planning to record sound from drivers seat at start up and run, as well near front right tire and rear right tire.
Update? Any videos? How's the drone?
 
You can see where the stud snapped in the hole. I welded a bolt on to 2 so far.

Ouch. I am not looking forward to having my exhaust manifolds and headers upgraded in the future. I know the eventual shop is gonna have similar issues. LOL

Sorry for the long wait. Finished the y-pipe on Saturday and was able to get the sound clips uploaded to YouTube today. The exhaust that was on when I bought the GX was a Magnaflow overlander cat-back system (pipe w/ muffler only) after the factory y-pipe connection.

The Brockett Built resonated y-pipe gives the GX a little more throaty V-8 sound but nothing over the top. I posted the video/sound clips on YouTube at the links below.

Open exhaust, no y-pipes or muffler:

The Y pipe opened it up quite a bit. Sounds great!
