what do you guys think?:whaa:

The previous owner of my Alpha removed the muffler leaving just a resonator. Sounded great, but droned bad in the backseat. Removed resonator and installed a magnaflow and it now sounds great with no more drone.

I had mine done the same way. I've got a hole in my resonator and my 2nd cat smells horrible when I get on it so I'm thinking about removing them both and putting in a cherry bomb or something. I've already gutted the exhaust manifold cat and discovered I've got 2 broken exhaust manifold bolts in the back in the process, so I'll have to do something about that soon as well.

I think think it sounds horrible, just my opinion. Why would you want a Hummer to resemble a honda?

X2. Thanks for posting so I know to never do this.

Sounds fine on the 5.3L V8 with the OEM muffler removed, and resonator replaced with a magnaflow. Inline engines just don't compare when it comes to sound output.

I get where you're coming from but the video doesn't pick up all the sound and deepness trust me it sounds nothing like a riced up Honda. Maybe it's just me cause I just switched from a mustang after I totaled it and it had a loud exhaust and I like cars sounding loud

Well its loud.. just not nice (opinion)... invest in a Borla catback for a better sounding exhaust... They're selling really cheap since Hummer was discontinued.
It wont be as loud and noisy, but at least it'll sound like a decent truck.

And its a Hummer, not a Mustang... So.. yea..

Also, i think you're getting rid of too much back pressure with this setup. Not a very good thing performance-wise.
