What kind of exhaust does everyone have with the V8 engine. I do not want something super loud, my wife drives it most of the time and we have a baby. But I want something. Sound clips would be great.

I have the Magnaflow 12586 on mine now. It is a full size muffler and gives just a slight bit more performance sound.
I just ordered a Flowmaster 52557 because I wanted a bit more tone out of it without being overbearing. Someone posted a sound clip of the 52557 and it sounds pretty sweet. Check it out.

We just installed my Borla Cat-back today on my T4R and I am very impressed. I didn't want something obnoxious or raspy. It has a deep powerful sound. No rasp at all and not too loud. It is loudest at 2K RPM so I just wont set the cruise at 68mph I have a Volant CAI and they go well together. It did improve power mid-range and up top for sure.

The Borla is a great addition to any V8. It has a nice deep sound and has increased the the MPG on the road slightly. In town not so much because the wife can't keep her foot off the gas.

I am playing devil's advocate. (b/c I have a 50 SUV Flowmaster)
I do not like Magnaflow. I have seen a 5-6 yaer old one so rusted out before (in California) and the packing (fiberglass?) they use inside the muffler (to deaden the 'drone') fades out in time (from my online education) and becomes louder at highway speeds as it ages.
Flowmaster mufflers are all metal design and keeps a more consistent sound over its life.
Cat back systems.....WOW! Those are pricey. I paid 1/3 with a nice tip and side exit with the majority of the stock 2.5" piping still in use.

This may be a thread jack, but I feel it's relevant. Other than the ability to bolt on yourself, are there any advantages of a catback system vs just the muffler?
