Either cut some holes in it or get rid of it.

????

You have a quiet exhaust setup, what were you expecting?

My suggestion, do some research on a different can and switch em.

well ya could go with the apexi gt spec catback like i did. and after a 2 hour trip cruising at 80....it kinda reminded me of those days in highschool at the dance where the music was so loud when u walked out side u could barely hear anything.

but im not saying that the gt spec doesn't sound good, it sounds great but its just kinda a little too loud. imo the gt spec makes the apexi n1 sound like a ***** lol

If you want to make it louder and/or improve flow, you could replace your cat with a test pipe or hi-flo cat..

if you want a louder exhaust get the tanabe racing medalion

why do you want such a loud exhaust though? it just attracts cops and such, i say stick with your current setup

The answer is simple:

Do something that will drastically increase power.

take off the axle back, go to a muffler shop and have them make you a buddy club spec 2 style axle back, its just a straight pipe from the resonator

when you bought the rs*r you didnt realize its marketed as "the quietest aftermarket exhaust"????

i doubt its less loud than stock but id say make a test pipe.

i have a dc 4-1 and rs*r w/test pipe, its decently loud and very FUNCTIONAL.

driving a b16 at 80 gets obnoxious after about 5 mins.

Buying a new catback is one solution, but its probably not the cheapest way to go. I would just go to an exhaust shop, and have them cut off the muffler, and either just add new straight pipe in its place, or a glasspack. Its hard to go wrong with a "muffler" you can look straight through, and they're rather inexpensive. And if you really want to drop the tone, cut off the current muffler, flare the exhaust to 3" (or larger), then add in a larger, straight through muffler, or straight pipe.

find somebody to trade it with. a CAI will make it louder. the CAI will make noise, plus it will increase the air exiting your rsr, so that will be louder.
