I have a'98 3000 GT,6 cly. DOHC engine. I would like to add a new muffler or exhaust system mainly for a deeper richer sound, faster would be better too. I don't want a fast and furious type sound but louder and deeperone . I'd need to stay in a budget. Any ideas?Thanks

The only exhaust I ever hear about these cars is the Borla exhaust.. It should run about $700 or so, but it's only got a single tip on each side.
Check out 3sxperformance.com if you want to see it.

You could also try stock VR4 or R/T tt exhaust. This is mine with out cats.

This is what you do if you are on a limited budget. Pick out the tips that you want. (I went on ebay) Then go to a muffler shop and have them weld a custom bent CAT BACK exhaust. The shop should only charge you about $150.

Oh, look at my cardomain account in my signature. The tips are off an aftermarket covette exhaust set up. The guy wanted the borla exhaust, but wanted the stock tips on it, so he sold the tips. The tips only cost me $80.

well if you want to keep some performance then this might not be a good idea just because the bends that they will do for this price will be ****. Also i don't know what size piping your thinking about doing but either way you would probably want mandrel bent piping. Any other way would work but at the bends the pipe gets a kink and will decrease power.

captbubba3 There are a few sites you can check out. You can aways keep you stock piping, honestly replacing it dont make much if any noticeable difference its a N/A. You could always get a nice high flow cat, or take the cats out, and get a nice set of just mufflers. Mufflers can be cheap so if you dont like the sound try another set. Hope that helps

Most people who remove their cats (and are N/A) get a rhaspy sound out of the exhaust.

In the N/A 3000gt, a little back pressure isn't bad. Besides... You are not trying to spool up a turbo, so there is no reason (unless you have more than 350-400 hp) to hollow out cats and put 3" piping and no mufflers.

m3kgt_99 Do you like to just repeat every thing i say in every thread? Also do you know why you need back pressure? Its alittle more important on a N/A, so have alittle can hurt you.
