Default Exaust

I have a 2004 Civic EX...I had my exaust shop put 2" pipe all the way back and I had a Magnaflow muffler put on. I hated the sound of it cracking. like the pissed off weed eater sound you know? Well I want something deeper. Dose anyone know of any places to listen to exaust sounds or have a civic with a throughty sound? Thanks for your help

Thanks for the help. Maybe its the fact that I didn't buy the catback kit?

if they got caught removing cats and letting you drive off without a new one they could get fined over 25,000 dollars unless you dont have emissions in your state
