pics of stock exhaust?

Hey guys whats up?! I was wondering if there are any pics of the stock exhaust (pic taken from under the car) cause I am trying to figure out what makes the stock exhaust note so good! I've got an 05 GTO and have been trying to find a good setup that doesn't drone and I love how the SS sounds. I know a lot of it probably has to do with the specific mufflers used but as much info as I can gather is appreciated.

answer: the stock muffers are chambered.

Maganaflow will coming out will have NO DRONE AT ALL. was the first cat back to be finished and tested on my car. ;) more info here: http://www.ssforums.com/forum/engine-technical-discussion/10041-magnaflow-exhaust-update.html
Speaking of Magnaflow, which I always love the sound of, why don't they offer full 304 stainless systems? Their polished mufflers look great, but many of the pipes seem to be 409 which surface rusts /stains. I understand the cost difference, but it would make a nice option for full 304.

Go to the Stainless Works post as they have a picture of the complete exhaust they took off of my car that they used to develop their catback stainless system which is now available for order.
I'm aware this is an old thread, but any idea why MF didn't just use their own resonated x-pipe like the one below?

Here are some pictures of ours on the lift at its first oil change at the dealer. (I know, I know, I know, they did not place the lift supports at the correct locations..........)

And a belated welcome to the forum GeeTeeOhh!
Thanks, I currently have a 2008 350z with some stuff done do it. Best care I've owned, but I prefer sedans, and I'm going to need a few more seats in the near future so it's looking like the SS is it as far as non european, rwd, naturally aspirated sedans with more power than I have now go. Currently just planning out my future SS, nothing crazy. Alcantara wrapped stock steering wheel, lowering springs, square setup wheels and tires (summer and snow tires), OTR intake, dual exhaust with an x-pipe, and ss brake lines. Looking forward to it and thanks for the warm welcome.

Lol, also I just realized my original post was in the wrong thread, must have clicked the wrong window. Thanks for the welcome still though.
