Lots of great aftermarket systems out there. If you are looking to do it on the cheap eliminate the center resonator and replace it with a crossover pipe or better yet an "X" crossover. You will still be fairly quiet at idle and highway cruise (no drone) but, you will definitely hear a difference on hard acceleration. Total cost - couple hundred at a muffler shop.

How about the center muffler or the rear mufflers along with the resonator

My mistake on verbiage. Pull the center muffler. It is common to the left and right banks.

thats what I did and she sounds goooooood. When you hit the gas pedal to the floor and the transmission downshifts it turns heads but at nice cruising speeds 45 the engine has a nice low rumble not very loud.
