    Question questions

    i got my car back today from zost place, the guy talked me into geting a str cat back system with 2 ressinators.

    So i ended up playing 300$ for it an just found out str means straight through
    i looked under the car and its black pipeing looks brand new scrapes like shit over every hump now (allthough ive got superlow king springs in it)

    Anywayz i recon it sounds shit just like a lacer or something poojab rice car.

    question.1 :Will a high flow cat help?
    question.2 :Will a zost tip help the crap coffee can sound?
    question.3 :I got riped off didnt i?
    question.4 :Will the scrapeing screw my new pipen up?dints match?
    question.5 :i seem to be seting ppls alarms off wen i drive past, can i get intruble for it if they report me? the guy said its all a leagle tone(nothing to warry bout)

    proly all stupid questions but id like to ask the experts (u guys ) b4 i do anything else

    q1: High flow cats dont change the tone
    q2: tips do shit all except looks
    q3: Thats about the going rate including labour
    q4: Dints will reduce the flow but depending on the size not by much
    q5: With 2 ressies it would be legal

    I found the most effective way to change the note of the car is to change the muffler. Go with a trusted brand such as lukey or personally i like and use redback, and it should be 2.5 inch pipe. What brand of muffler do you have?
    kilowatts are like drugs, the more you get, the more you want.

    i wish to differ ever so slightly on what you said for questions 1&2....
    hi flow cats can contribute partially to an exhaust note...i only used to have extractors and 2 1/2" exhaust with standard cat for quite a while, eventually i took her back in and got a hi flow cat put on.
    it made a noticable difference to idle note and when you are under heavy acceleration (3500rpm+) its ALOT louder. (in a good way,lol)
    also some tips can make the exhaust note sound different, not much, but they can smooth off the note so its not quite as lumpy.
