cutting the exhaust right after the muffler will do nothing but make it annoying while driving. Just replace the muffler with a magnaflow or something like that.

i know you can buy a flowmaster for bout 30 to 50, at autozone.
i dont know if i would cut the exhaust though. from what ive heard and ive done it to before, youll have less power. that may not be true. im kinda wondering about that to though?

if you do cut the exhaust, you could put on cherry bomb glass packs, that will give you a deeper sound. maybe you can youtube it, i think it sounds really good.
the one i heard, it was deep and it kinda crackled when he sped up.

well cherry bombs are a very popular brand. but for one you can find one online for bout 30 bucks. or more. but i think if you find the right sight you can get it for 15.
but i found this sight right now. http://www.jegs.com
just go to exhaust, then mufflers, then find at the lower bottom it sais cherry bomb glass packs, its looks like a red tube.
and they average around 30 to 35 bucks.
