This doesn't apply to a vehicle with a catalytic converter... It sort of acts
like a pre-muffler sound wise. Smooths everything out.

2 or 3 chamber, they're going to be very similar in tone, sort of like a Grand
National.. Not much rumble you can get from a 6 cylinder, but the 6 cylinder
noise in itself is a very unique tone that can only truly be appriciated by us
folks that are partial to 6 cylinders. I prefer the sound of a 8,000 rpm air-
cooled horizontally opposed flat 6 to anything else .. but that's another
topic.
