    Going to do a 3" zz cat and a full cat back system but unsure of the cat back. I want it to sound good but not have the typical tinny sound that the 3.8 gets with aftermarket exhaust. Any suggestions?

    put as many things as possible in the way of the tips (cat, resonator/glasspack, and mufflers). keep it mellow or you'll hate it.

    I was looking at the magnaflow catback that zz has on their website, I know it keeps the resonator and the dual mufflers.

    Just realize that a catback exhaust is absolutely pointless on these cars and serve no performance increase on a sub 300whp build. Any money spent is like walking to a toilet and roughly ****ting out money. All you get is an ungodly annoying sound similar to one that comes out of your ass during a rough ****.
