Intake, header, throttle body, and some mean cams

Headers is one right off the top of my head. Oh yeah, and a stroker kit, lighter flywheel, lightweight pulley's.

None of the above suggestions will do much to increase the volume of your exhaust sound. Your tone and pitch (and performance) will change but will not get too much louder.

If you really want a LOUD exhaust, you've gotta either gut your muffler or delete it. This would entail going to a muffler shop as you would need to chop off the muffler portion of your Veilside kit. Then you could either retain your Veilside exhaust tip(s) or go with a custom tip(s). If you do delete your muffler, you'll need to replace it with a straight pipe or a resonator. This should be welded into place. After doing this, it should be loud enough for you but since you mentioned something about pimp factor, I doubt you'll alter the appearance of your Veilside exhaust kit.

In any case, good luck.

check the system to see if inline resoantors are used. if so cut them out & replace with straight piping. alot of exhaust systems use resonators as well as mufflers....also, not that this makes the exhaust louder but it sure sounds good, get a JWT intake "pop charger", it really adds a nice roar when accelerating. WOT screams are amaizing. i was more impressed with the sound that the JWT intake produced as opposed to my borla TD setup! (im sure numerous intake/filters will add a similar sound, i just know for sure that the JWT piece sounds incredible) ive had my pop charger for almost a year now & i still get excited about it everytime i hit the gas!
