Default Which sound to go for?

Trying to decide which sound I like the best, kinda leaning towards the youtube one, not sure though, I'd like to hear a clip at WOT.

Yahoo! Briefcase - List View

I would go for the one in the video. The one with the link has a lot of distortion, so its kind of hard to tell what it really sounds like.. but, overall, I would do the setup in the video. Sounds a lot cleaner.

Ok, set up in the video is an exhaust cut out, whisper air lid, pacesetter headers & y-pipe, everything else is stock. Any major problems that could occur with a cutout? I know one guy said he had one with a LED switch and the switch drained his battery because the light wouldn't go off when teh car was off.

I still think a Cherrybomb GLasspack without the cat is the best sounding setup for a 6.

Hey! That's my car! The Youtube video that is.

I ended up loosing my camera, thus the shortage of videos for the past month or so. Looking to get a new one shortly and I swear I will get a WOT in-cabin and WOT driveby video.
