Can someone identify my exhaust?

Figure I'd snap a pic since the rockers are off, I know it has been messed with b/c there are no cats. I don't know if it is anything special (doesn't look like it to me) or just some "whatever" muffler, anyway here is the picture, thanks for any help:

I'd bet that car sounds great from a distance but is obnoxiously loud to drive long distances. Even my cat-delete setup (now in storage) had me driving everywhere with earplugs...

Actually it is not, it is louder then a stock one I've heard, it sounds "different" is all I can say, I've never heard anything that sounds like it, very intoxicating. With the car buttoned up in the winter it is a tad on the loud side inside, but not obnoxious I hate that kind of exhaust.

Cfiiman, do you happen to have any sound clips of that setup?

No, but I will get one as soon as I can and post it.

I know I'm biased b/c it is my car, but it is really sick sounding, gives me goose bumps still when I stand by it while it is idling. A couple of guys on here have heard it (stretch) being one, he was the one that let me know it wasn't stock when I first got the car.

I've had the pleasure to have driven with several different exhaust setups.. All sound better than stock on a gen 1 but I've discovered the crap, truck sounding, stock exhaust system is preferrable for long hauls. After a few 1200 mile weekends the drone had me grinding teeth! Most guys don't drive their cars all that much so a nice rippin' exhaust note while pullin' into the local hot spot is the way to go for most.... I'm sure yours sounds good. Are you looking to change it out or just interested in what is is??

I was just curious if it was something "special" like the ones I read about on here, I thought maybe it was stock just without cats, just curiosity...And yeah, on a 1200 mile trip it would be a bit of a drone I would say :D

Nothing like a 4-5 day roadtrip in my old viper! I'm lucky to be able to spend days on the twisties following the mountain roads along the Blue Ridge. Heck, the Blue Ridge Parkway alone is 475 miles...of twisties and sweepers! (Gettin' charged up just thinking about it!) Next up will be early June for the Tail of the Dragon gathering I think. Time to start planning. I digress...

Carry-on

I'll be firing it up probably tomorrow if the weather is ok b/c I'm wiring new shop lights in the garage, I'll make sure to video it and post it up.

No problem, I've decided to go with a Stainless Works muffler setup but I'm going to be doing that after the season, I just want to have fun and enjoy the weather right now! :D
