    hmm only the 'ricers of muscle' actually like em... :)

    true hotrodders (like myself) prefer a nice exhaust system.
    dual flowmasters or dual magnaflow on a header system (oh yeah and we don't have to slap cats on our oldies either... :))

    I would *NEVER* put cherry bombs on my 69 Z28 - i love that car too much to treat it like a $2 hooker.

    cherry bombs are glasspacks...many folks use them improperly as resonators. they'll even out your exhaust tone and kill all the tinny high pitched whining.

    they're also illegal in some states.

    Its not all that bad. it was my 1st cheap as mod i ever did. at idle i have the best deep lows tone. You lose a lot of low end but you feel it at high end. It may be cheap but it was deep tone through out the power band. Depending your mods and exhaust size its not too loud. I had the stock size on my rolla but my friend with his eclipse had 2inch and it still sounded good. It really depends on you but then we had the stright through ones with a tip it.
