More noise? Turf the mufflers i'd suggest, but probly drone like a bitch.
Take off the exhaust alltogether and flip the extractors upside down to stick out the bonnet. Instant results.
^^^^^^^^ What he said, but please call me when you're done so I can come "marvle" at the car.....
buy an ss?
We did this in my mate's old hilux which was on its last legs anyway. So we pulled the entire exhaust out and flipped the extractors and tapped the new holes to fit the side of the engine.
It had no bonnet anyway so we cut the pipes down to size to get 6 straight-cut pipes sticking out the top of the engine. Started the car and it sounded awesome, it blew heaps of smoke too (which was cool). It also kept flareing out the pipes when we hit the throttle and backfiring shocking amounts. It honestly sounded like an alcahol funny car without the base.
Reccomend it for any paddock basher.
AS yours is a single system you will need to fit one of these O pipes from Kale Auto.
O Pipe (Single Exhaust) - $89.95 : KaleCoAuto, Hard to find automotive items!
the louder you make it the more like fart can it will sound like, alloytec's dont sound good with exhuasts
Stick a truck horn on your car which you can beep whenever you feel the need for more noise. Or you could start yelling out the windows while you drive.
how does the o pipe work? can i install it myself n how?
haha dude i already scream out the window for noisen honk the horn

henrytad i'm starting to think you're serious lol you're awesome
My old Bluebird had a cat, a muffler in the middle and a smaller muffler at the end.
One day the cat started to sound like shit so I just took it to the exhaust shop and asked them to cut it out and weld it with straight pipe. That was $20
A few weeks later on the way to work I heard a weird noise coming from the back of the car, when I got there I had a look and the rear muffler was hanging down only help up by a rubber that it was swinging from. Took it to the exhaust shop again and another $20 to weld 2 1/2"
Started to sound pretty nice already but what I did next gave it the best sound.
Got rid of all the crappy pollution gear and put a 2 barrel webber carby on it.
After all that over a few weeks, it sounded like it was a worked straight six, felt like twice as much power, always turned heads.
Although most of it was illegal cops never asked about anything.
With my VN the cat is gone and sounding shitty.
Im thinking of buying a decat and replacing the rear muffler with a hotdog
