It should sound like a chainsaw, not a weedwhacker.

I bet you have a Racing Beat exhaust on it...

here's a "ported" pacesetter header (the flashing at the collector was ground away) and OE exhaust...

note: you have to copy that shortcut and manually enter it. idle is roughly 1500-1800, upshifts at roughly 3500-4000, light throttle city driving.
