Ways to bring out the boxer rumble?

Heyy everyone, the title pretty much says everything. I've been looking for cheap ways to bring out the boxer rumble. I know buying an exhaust would be a definite answer but I was wondering if there were any other ways.

Unless you're going for NA lol, i think you meant open DP?

OP, try Y-pipe with a cut out on the DP. A little too loud for my taste but it sure brings that boxer rumble want. Pretty cheap too.
