    Default Exhaust

    Hi there
    I want to know if some one has took his factory muffler off and driving on with straight pipe...

    Actually I asked one of my friend how much muffler costs. then he said just took factory muffler off, it will sound good.
    Is any one driving like this.????

    How is the sound> I dont want too loud. I never drive over 2500-3000 rpm. I just want a roaring.....

    Sorry it doesn't make sense.
    But my friend said if I take rear muffler off and put a straight pipe there. It will sound good. Is that right.

    No it won't it will sound like shit. Get a proper exhaust from your catalytic converter back. Go talk to your local exhaust shop and they will help you out.

    Going by the make it sound like V8 I think your a troll....

    if you want to try it then replace the rear muffler with a straight pipe and leave the centre muffler. it'll make it louder. Will cost you about $80-$90 and a new 2.5" system with e new centre muffler and no rear adn sound better (actually sound good) and will cost $250. your call.
