Very mellow at idle and not quite as loud as the old Flowmaster 40 (with
the cat). However, without the resonator (and/or cat)...it'll get
really loud (that's why I put the resonator in there).

Bernd,

How does the Turbo XL sound on a v6 without the cat?? I'm redoing my
exhaust this weekend, and I'm wondering if the absence of the cat would
make a big difference in the sound.
