get a real exhaust system. n-1 or somthing. it probably won't be loud as long as your running through the stock muffler.

I have a GSR catback for sale with a muffler on it that sounds nice. I live in york, pa and if you pick it up you could have the hole thing for $25.

I am selling because I bought a whole cat back.

it depends if you run a straight pipe or if you have a cat and resonator.

of course it would be... there is nothing in there to make it quieter.

Where on earth would you get away with any of this anyway? Straight pipes isn't legal anywhere.

Straight pipes on a 4cyl??? PLEASE, DON'T DO IT GHETTO!

if you can't afford it then just don't do it

well, some turbo'ed cars run open headers so no bottleneck and back pressure, but N/A cars has a con about open headers. they need that back pressure

open header means open header
its open after the header~

no it will not sound like with muffler off...
the stock Bpipe still has resonator so it will change the sound

there is really no reason to not run a muffler. open headers should only be run on a offroad vechicle or a drag car otherwise its just retarded. no muffler will be loud and sound like garbage as well. go to ebay and get a n1 catback for 200 bucks and save yourself the annoying loudness of no muffler. i had a tenzo exhuast on my old da and i couldnt hear after driving a mile or two. get something like that if you wanna be deaf.

no muffler/open headers

some sort of ACTUAL exhuast or straight pipe and universal muffler

me replying to this thread im ashamed

Just forget it...

you really have no idea what your doing. If you are paying someone for this you really are wasting your money.

Hope you have enough money to buy a new motor after kill this one.
