I had one of these on a Nissan 3.0L V6 and it had a good sound...not too loud and crisp. It only went thru the cat...then the tip. These have some fiberglass in them.

Pacesetter Monza Style Resonator Tips - JCWhitney

Problem being that they are not ss...so it rusted out in maybe 2 years or so.

Saw something similar in a parts store in ss for much less.

Check out the Borla XS...more power than a straight pipe...and also at lower rpms...
