91483, My Future Exhaust Setup ??
Posted by Eagle420a, Jul-14-05 03:34 PM
Hey wats up, i've been using the search button alot and decided on my exhaust setup, I want the Tsudo N1, Catco 2.5 cat, and 4-1 Header. My question is will this setup sound nice or will it sound like a weed eater?

when i had a 3" catco cat with my tanabe catback, it made it more "muscle" car sound'ish. now that i have the test pipe, its nice and deep :)

Are either of you boosting? Just wondering because I'm not and possibly might be going with a 2.5 catco cat.

Then it will sound like a weed eater. turbos filter out all that high pitched noise that causes raspiness, and leave just the nice low and midrange notes that make your car sound like a serious performance machine.
Getting just a catback is okay, but as soon as you change the stock manifold for a header and add a high-flow cat, it is going to sound really obnoxious.

youll get some rasp with that header, you might consider welding in a 24" resonator in place of your stock one..that should take care of it. or slap in a turbocharger lol, that would fix it.

If you search for the word "header" on here you'll find a ton of threads and the general conclusion is that they don't help much at all on our cars. Save your money and put it in the "going turbo" cookie jar.
