Exhaust baffles

So. I bought the boss and thought it sounded good. I was like "wow, it's decently loud, can't wait to get the baffles out and see what everyone is talking about" Jacked it up today, they're already out. The exhaust is hardly "loud" even my wife commented on the way back to MI that it was quieter than my 1970 with turbo mufflers. I do think those electric cut outs would be nice. It would prevent the smokies from being alerted from afar.

Mine has got louder the more I drive it, 3-1/2 yrs & 16,000.miles.
Any louder & I fear it would drone.

If you want a little louder, but stay OEM, get a set of GT500 axle backs and over the axle pipes that delete the resonators. You will have zero drone and the car will sound like it should have stock.

Or try the GT500s with stock resonators first. Maybe not as loud but the tone is **** near perfect to me.

I wish someone who recorded the exhaust had a good mic so I can actually hear the difference.

Get a sweet carbon ricer hood and you don't have to worry about it.
