Dual exhaust on n/a 3.8

So I got my dual exhaust put on today. I went with the removal of the res and Magnaflow mufflers and 1331 Vibrant tips. Looks really good, but I have to admit it sounds kind of ricey :th_shakinghead2:. What now? The guy says give it a few weeks to break in and it will sound better, but I dont see that happening. What should I do? Will adding a glasspack take away the riceness and give it more of a deep rumble? I want that deep rumble I hear on so many other V6 GP's without having to add headers and a downpipe. Anyway any help would be awesome, thanks.
 


have you done anything to the intake yet? my stock dual mufflers sound much better after adding a cone air filter
 


Damn I hope they will still have it come Monday, as they are closed until then. If they dont I guess I will add either the Magnaflow res or a glasspack
 


yeah...without a glasspack/resonator you're going to sound very raspy.

have them throw the stock on back on, or just get the longest, fattest glasspack you can.
 
Alright the muffler shop is like an hour away so ill just go local this round and have then add a thrush glasspack if they have one if not whatever the longest one they have then.
 
You sort-of deserve the ricey sound, because you should have replaced the manifolds with headers instead of putting money into the mufflers first. Haha, just had to bug ya a bit....
 


I embrace the laziness. Its like why buy a birthday cake when you can make your own....because more than likely the bought one will be better and without the effort.
