  • NEW exaust

    my exaust finnaly came today, it sounds pretty nice, its a magnaflow, but it sounds a little ricey. is there anyway to make it sound more muscley. im planning on doing headers soon, somthing may be loose also im not sure. would a high flow cat help?

    ps, my exasut came with an S pipe but there was no hole for the o2 sensor, so i left the stock one on

    both headers and a hi-flo cat will help deepen the sound

            add a cutout (35$ shipped from summitracing.com) right after the cat. You can choose ultra loud and deep tone vs regular magnaflow tone with the switch of a metal plate and 3 wing nuts.

              The OP was complaining about rasp, so adding a cutout is only going to increase the OP's woes exponentially.

              The only way to truly deepen the exhaust tone after you do the catback, is to do internal work (heads/cam)

                        i had a CATCO high flow cat installed at the same time as my cat back its only 55$ or so. Helps with flow, probably deepens it a tad.

                            You have got to understand, that car sounded good until you hit about 3.5k-4k rpms and then it starts getting "ricey". Any exhaust, Magnaflow or Flowmaster will sound like that after a certain amount of rpms. From what i saw in that video it sounded good until about then. If you are going through a tunnel or under a bridge and you downshift or with an auto it will do it automatically down to the lower gear you will hear what your car sounds like. I have the American Thunder exhaust and I can say that mine does sound "ricey" at high rpms, but it shouldn't be about the sound, but the performance gain. If you really want a deeper sound get some headers.

                              Here's 2 videos of cutouts:

                              http://youtube.com/watch?v=tk1L-oBmvl4

                              This is my car:

                              http://youtube.com/watch?v=WJ2O6IV3hCw

                              Cutout is definitely the way to go, but if your the kind of driver who floors it around every corner, it will rasp a bit. Me, I just like to cruise around, accelerate here and there, and it sounds good ALL The TIME

                              By the way in that first video the guys got a couple other mods, headers, cat etc. The second one is my car and that's more along the lines of what yours would sound like. I just have the flowmaster american thunder catback (80 series muffler) and the cutout after the cat
