Bought my gxp about a year ago and I am looking to upgrade the exhaust system. I am undecided about whether or not to do a complete overhaul or just a cat back system. I greatly appreciate any help!

Looks like there are a couple GXP sound clips on this page:

Pick some mufflers and get them welded in.
You'll likely wish to remove the AFM/DoD with a tune when you install the exhaust, it will sound like a helicopter and possible drone in 4 cylinder mode.

I had a GXP go past me at an intersection the other day. Not sure what the exhaust was, but it was deep, loud and rumbled; made my weiner move a little.

If I ever do the exhaust on my gxp, I was thinking I would do a 3" downpipe with a catalytic converter delete, 3 inch pipes with the stock resonator and stock mufflers. I'm not sure if it will work, but that's what I've been thinking about.

Flowmaster 40 series muffler always makes the LS sound tits.

Second setup had a catless ZZP 3" DP, still had the LM1 resonator, and switched to Borla Pro XS mufflers. No drone. Much better sound. No rasp. Bueno. See Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbE25ajERSU
It does not. All chambered mufflers still sound sh1tty on these cars because of the way the exhaust is setup up front. Nearly as bad as a 3800.

what is HFC?
if only they could stuff an 8.1 liter engine in these things, I loved the way mine sounded at about 4000 rpm.

The Vortec 8100 was a towing motor.
There was nothing power wise coming out of an iron motor from top to bottom without a massive turbo.
HFC is high flow cat.
Haven't you been around cars awhile?

apparently I haven't been around cars enough to know what hfc meant. just never saw it before. the 8.1 was a good towing motor, I liked how it sounded in a rev.

Those borlas sound really quiet, drop the res and put a powerstick in its place and remove the mufflers.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oyLMsvcZXsE

How 'bout the Magnaflow w/ a ZZP DP. Give it an intake & port stuff too. It'll give you a nice noisy rumble that you'll get tired of real fast w no noticeable bumps in power.

lol at the guy that starts a thread, comes back the next day and does nothing else. I guess it's ok because the thread gave me a few ideas for the future.
