What is louder, and better in quailty. (by louder i mean deep loud, not coffee can loud)...
An obx exhaust and if so which one (type r, type h) A pacesetter exhaust w/ a different muffler (and which muffler, I think a lot used obx b5)
And please dont tell me thermal or apexi or any of those, I know those are systems are the best, but i dont have that much money and i need to replace this fast, cops are bugging me about my hole in my exhaust right now.
Also on both of these will a test pipe or gutted cat make it raspy.
This also will be going on with an obx 4-1 header...if that makes a difference.
BTW does the black paint on the pacesetter come off, cause i know it does on their header. THANKS IN ADVANCED

I was thinking about that, but I still have to find out how much it will cost here.

If you want loud, get a cheap muffler off ebay. Go to a muffler shop and have them weld a 2.5" flange to some 2.5" pipe all the way back to the muffler. It should be around $200 total

Originally posted by Green If you're limited to those two brands, go with obx. I've seen cases where the pacesetter coating wears off and the pipes rust apart.
I was reading in another post and when you put the glasspack resonator, how much did the sound decrease.

#1) use a magnaflow muffler , buy it from RRE for 100$... much better quality than obx or pacesetter...link is in the review section
#2) pacesetter piping is stock diameter to my knowledge, so wont provide any more gains than just welding on a muffler to your stock piping
#3) obx & magnaflow catback are about the same price, but ide go with the magnaflow its probably a bit better quality. between the two it basically comes down to what style muffler you want. ive heard the obx is lowder too..
#4) wait for the af/x or fastfab header to come out. current headers are just re-tubed stock manifolds, and dont make any real power. the af/x or fast fab header should make some pretty sweet gains.
