Not loud enough
My neighbors keep complaining about my car because of the noise. All I have is an intake and a muffler delete and I don't rev it or drive fast in any residential areas so I don't know what they're problem is. Does anyone here know how I can get alot louder? I was thinking of having a header built (I'm not paying $2k for supersprint) and runing straight pipe all the way back (with a cat of course) or would there not be enough back pressure. I want to give them something to complain about.
And before anyone says anything, I know it's a dick move .

Well, I really want it to sound more aggressive. At first it was nice and loud but now it just seems too quiet (hearing damage? lol)

I live in Phoenix but have my cars registered in a county south of here where there is no emissions testing. I might get a header and straight pipe all the way back and put a hollowed out cat in there somewhere to make it look legit but will that make me loose power from not having enough back pressure?

take your resonator out if you have not done so already. Reason it seams it got quieter has to do with carbon build up.

I don't know, won't the resonator being gone make it sound kind of...weird?

The carbon fiber trunk lid will make up for The weight but seriously subs are about the last thing I'd waste money on. Soooooo many better things out there that I want to do to my car. I'd rather buy 2 or 3 broken down camaro shells and put 'em up on blocks in my front yard.....maybe not.

although i have cool neighbors, we used to have this one guy on the block (who was a renter believe it or not) who would complain to EVERYONE, but me about my 360 modena exhaust. he'd say i was always speeding and my car was too loud. first off, i never speeded on the block, and yes the car is loud. i told him that a harley is louder and i could go by a harley and make him even more pissed if he kept it up.... he stopped bullshi*ttin shortly after that! |

I dunno. . . . . but I like it when I drive slow for a little while, then punch it like no tomorrow. . . friend say that I shoot big clouds of smoke through my exhaust when i shift from 1st to 2nd. Must be from all that carbon deposit in the system.
But yea. . . you wanna be really loud? Then get headers, straight through mid section pipes with no cats or resonators, and no muffler in the back. . . . shit will be loud.
