    Yeah already installed the kooks Lts and x pipe with stock mufflers. Sounds great at throttle but tame at idle, which for my 8th month old is great. However after the killer tune R. Crawford put in, I really want some more sound. I'm thinking GXP mufflers if I can scare some it up.

    The GXPs will certainly crank it up a notch.

    Not sure how much trouble it would be to make them work, but a set of Chevy SS axlebacks might be able to work, with the right modifications assuming that you could get into a set cheap enough to make it worth working them over. You'd have to research it more, but certainly some food for thought. I know that they are not a direct replacement due to not having a flanged connection and their hanger rods might not work with the G8's setup either and there's the single tip that some either love or hate...

    They do drone quite a bit, but sound amazing when you're anywhere over half throttle.
