theres no point starting at the back >_<

gotta remember when you do ya cat-back, and you go OOH LA LA at the new sound, its gonna sound totally different with a hi flow cat or decent headers

headers, cat, THEN the muffler. do it right the first time.

as for custom pipe price, go to a sop and ask, it varies over location etc etc, but you shoul dbe able to find someone to do a cat back INSTALL of ya muffler for between ~$50(mild no res)-~$200(ss+res)

yes of course, we wouldn't want to be a ricer now would we

Just wondering... with a high flow cat... would I fail my smog?

[Super Kaioken]

i think it depends if its....umm.......CA smog emission safe? or something like that.

it would put out more exhaust gas since it's...more free flowing.

[terrastrife]

ca smog cats have a extra air/sensor bung/s

magnaflow make a proper one.

Everything's gonna be 2.5". Went to Meineke and will cost me bout $450 to get it done parts and all.

hey, just curious if you had this installed and how it sounds! i'm looking to get a new muffler and wanted to know if you were happy with the 2.5" and the borla!

well i kept the pipes stock 2.25 and it still sounds great. people do not recommend goin bigger

[Super Kaioken]

yeah i kept my pipes 2.25 but still going to get a high flow cat---maybe. lol

with a Borla Exhaust of course.

Not installed yet. Got to pay some other bills first. Probably sometime late September before I get it installed.

Just wondering guys who has a TRD muffler and did you notice a difference

[Super Kaioken]

i noticed a difference in sound and a difference in throttle response in accelerating.
that's with my Borla which is the same as the TRD.
