Hooker Aerochamber FTW!!! its not super loud even with no resonator but has a nice low throaty rumble, It is quiet under WOT and all you hear is the motor.

ok ok I'm an idiot but hey..lol.

IMO, magnaflow and flowmaster sound much more raspy. yes I've heard both first hand on several different cars.

That Hooker muffler sounds good man... keep the noise down alot too!

I really like the way that Dynomax sounds though... with my resonator on still, it would make that a little more mellow too... hmmm.

Is that a Turbo or Super Turbo muffler??

IMO there are a lot of opinions being pushed as facts in this thread.

I've heard Magnaflow on a few N/A series II, most with high flow cats (lil louder) and they weren't mellow at all. Raspy, even poppy comes to mind.

Yea, thanks everyone for the help, I've narrowed it down to two different mufflers for the Bonnie.

Since I have the resonator and plan on keeping it, I'm either going to go with a Dynomax Super Turbo or a Hooker Aerochamber.

The Hooker seems to be my numero uno choice, it'* pretty much exactly what I was looking for, so once again thanks everyone!!
