Exhaust systems Options

[monkeywrench]

This may be a stupid question, but don't different exhaust systems have a different sound? I was thinking of getting a cold air intake for a Celica (I know what a celica sounds like with a cold air intake) and an aftermarket exhaust system. I was wondering if theres a way I can find out what all the different brands sound like? I'm meaning like Skunk2, Borla, Flow Master and MagnaFlow. I don't know if any of them sound like those giant Doge and Ford trucks (I mean the kind that are more made for Oil Field work or heavy hauling) or if its the engine that makes the certain noise, or if the muffler itself has a design on the inside that makes the noise.

I've got a borla xr-1 on my exhaust w a 2.5" all the way back. It's loud and sounds good for the most part. There is a rattle that is starting to drive me nuts tho, I'm not sure if its the heatshield under my car where the exhaust is or what... But I also cut out the cat and resonator. If I would have left those or bought a high flow cat it may sound different. I can try to get a sound clip up here if you want.. After she is all warmed up she sounds great. When I really get on it tho it sounds ehh... I'm debating on going w a different muffler now..
