Which 1 of these 3 would you pick?

X2 ^ My buddy drives his '74 Chevy pickup with the cutouts open all the time and rarely gets tagged because it actually has a nice tone to it. Then you see all the hondas with $20 kragen fart-can mufflers on that sound like a swarm of bees and the cops usually attract to them just because of the obnoxious and annoying sound that protrudes from the rear haha.

The engines are the same and the sound will be the same, also.
#13
The sound of the cherry bomb sounds great.
#14
I would look for the fart can sound if I were interesting in stopping cars
#15
Haha I know that's what I would shoot for if I was a cop.

I'm actually surprised so many people replied to this and I'm thankful for everyones thought! The magnaflow and borlas sound great, but IMO they are best suited for more of a sporty or lowered vehicle. Alot of Trucks in my area run exhaust so loud you feel it in your chest, so my 4.3 shouldn't make a cop bat an eye. Plus I drive like grandpa on sunday. So the whole flooring it at the stoplight and deafining people thing won't happen with me. I got a radar detector to let me know when to turn my radio down, not when to slow down . If anyone else has an opinion, speak up, I'll consider everything that's posted. I'm gonna try to get my exhaust done this saturday.
PS:Some people mentioned noise pollution laws. IMO the exhaust gets cops too look. Then depending on if your vehicle looks legal or not gets you ticketed. As in too dark of tint, lights out, etc... (just my $0.02)

I've said it before (when I was looking for an exhaust). You can't really judge the sound quality of exhausts by a youtube video. The sound quality on the majority of youtube videos is crap.
I put the cherry bomb turbo (cheaper version of the extreme) on my truck. I only went with that one since a buddy of mine used to have the turbo (he switched to a flowmaster) on his truck and I had heard what it sounded like.
Anyway, hope you made your decision. FWIW I'm pretty happy with my cherry bomb.

Yeah I got a qoute from my shop today. $300 for the pipe, muffler, and catalytic converter installed. I agree about the video quality thing. That's why I couldn't really decide and left it up to the forum to decide. I've never heard a cherry bomb I didn't like. Theres a clip on youtube of CB glasspacks on a 545i BMW that sounds Heavenly IMO. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrgBd-nPfi8

it's not the loudest exhaust that gets you got, it's the douchiest exhaust. if your crap is obnoxious, or ridiculous, you will garner more attention. if loud was all cops sought out, no one could ride a harley more than a few 100 meters without getting snagged up by some a-hole cop.

I had a new exhaust put on a few weeks ago and it sounds great to me. Not too loud and not too raspy. I had a magnaflow 5x8x18 muffler put on with a magnaflow spun cat and 2.5 pipe exiting at stock location. If you want a vid ill post one with a few different angles. Everyone told me that any exhaust was going to be too loud and sound like a ricer. Glad they were proved wrong.
