Looking for Deeper Growl

What's up all? Well I'm enjoying my fresh '06 PBM and would really like to get an exhaust that would deepen the growl just a little bit. I don't want it to sound ricey or obnoxious but just something to give it a little extra bite. Any suggestions? Thanks.

You'll get varying opinions on who likes what. I have magnaflows and they have a deep growl with lots of popping on the down and up shifts.

I wanted the same thing your asking for and I got it. If you really want a sweet sounding exhaust, and are willing to drop a few big bucks, go for the SLP Loudmouth 1. Few people have it on the forum, Its probably as loud as it gets for the GTO. I went with a resonator delete. It felt like the first week was just a little deeper, but once I opened up the power within that week, it seemed to get louder. Now my car is extremely deep and sounds like a classic muscle car. You can also go with the H-pipe if you want a similar sound. Keep us updated.

GO WITH MAGNAFLOW'S.. GREAT SOUND, NOT TOO LOUD . THEY HAVE A NICE DEEP TONE TO THEM.

Click on the YOUTUBE site in my signature and you can hear mine on a dyno doing a 1/4 mile simulation on a MUSTANG DYNO

Like the sound of your car PDQ. I had LMI's on my car now replaced with Magnaflows. I liked the LMI's just too much poping on decel for me.

Anyone have just the resonator delete with an H-pipe? Everything else stock.
