coming from my own personal experience with the srt rear; the glasspack will only deepen the sound, not dapen the noise. If you are crazy or dead set on continuing to use the srt rear, invest in a spiral muffler.

If you ever get a longtube header, GET YOURSELF SMALLER THAN A 31'. You will have no room in there. Cabin noise is going to suck, I highly reccomend against the SRT/Glasspack combo. The droning gets OLD fast.

LINK HERE, CLICK

a baffled glass pack like this might do more than most glass packs. I have a glass pack on mine with my vibrant dual exhaust and even cat. Its a very pleasing sound.

If you don't like droning, don't do a srt swap. At 80 it gets a bit annoying.

At 60 it's not too bad, but I noticed 80 is ridiculous. Yesterday it didn't feel too loud going 80....meh

And the sad part about this topic, NYS police stopped me with my stock R/T muffler stating I had a modded exhaust and it was to loud :shock:

PS - no cat, so maybe... :lol:

The thing I never liked about the idea of swapping the SRt exhaust onto a non-SRT car was the lack of muffler.

SRT's don't need it, since the turbine housing muffles much of the sound already.
Drive it like you stole it, and work on it like you married it.

Not ENTIRELY on-topic but: on the subject of Droning, the Dynomax system is notorious for that.... My setup has a LTH ->hi-flo cat -> 2.5" piping -> Dynomax turbo muffler. 65-75mph it drones like a mother, above that it quiets down. Meh, go figure... now back to your topic :lol: !
