If you think about it, the phrase really deep and really loud is an oxymoron. In a nutshell, straight pipes are loud but they arent "deep". Chambered mufflers can be deep but not all that loud. Straight pipes are loud because there is little reflection and absorption. Chambered exhausts are deep because they reflect and absorb sound more thus altering the exhaust tone. Thats why big and oval cans tend to be deep and straight thru like the n1 tend to be loud and like a bee. If you do some research I think you will find a better answer. Why do you want really loud anyways?

Open header is fun. I don't know why youd buy an exhaust just because its loud but i can recommend the Apex'i N1, that's pretty loud.

I'm running open header right now while I wait for my Carsound cat. It's kinda cool at first, but after like a day it gets so damn annoying!
And I think the exhaust fumes are killing me

the loudest exhaust I ever heard was my friend with a hayame universal exhaust, and shop piping. Get a universal exhaust, and get like 2.5" piping at a muffler shop.

That's a myth that mostly applies to motorcycles.

i disagree, i previously had a greddy evo on my 94 ls. i mean it was deep, but it really wasn't loud at all unless you were right up to the car, i think the evo sounds better on vtec cars, like my buddies gsr. now i have a tanabe racing medallion, and i'm more happy with that now, its louder and more deep than my old evo.
