guys....

i just put in a header, took out the cat and put a 2.25inch midpipe coupled to a cherry bomb turbo baffled muffler(it was 39.95 at cdn tire )...

anyways....it's SUPER STUPID LOUD! and to make matters worse, it sounds really embarassing...it's so raspy, so farty, so disgusting... i may as well have an open header!

does anyone have any ideas as to what will silence this peice of trash? and please dont tell me to put back a cat on...i want to stay away from that...

i know ken has a similar setup...anyone know what muffler he is using that is so quiet? i need a super quiet muffler!!

Since you're you, why not go to the JY and cut the muffler off of a much bigger displacement engine'd car. That way you get tonnes of flow and no noise. A resonator would also be a good idea to kill off some of the higher pitched sounds.

^ are u sure a muffler off a larger displacement car is going to help?

i mean...my current muffler IS baffled as any stock one is...and has a 2.25inch inlet and outlet as any large displacement car would have...so uh...what gives

It's OK man, we're just giving you a hard time :grouphug:

Seriously, be ready to spend $1,000+ USD for a good system. If you want that 'tuned Porsche' sound, this is the sort of stuff you need to do:

B6 S4 full exhaust system $2,200 American:

996TT exhaust ($3,500):

This stuff sounds good because it was designed that way, and its damn expensive!!!

Oh, can I bolt this on my Camry?:

First, this is all CNC machined, hi-grade materials.

Second, they are not selling 50,000 996TT exhausts, so $500 of your $2000 might go to R&D/engineering/etc.

Third, if you can afford a 996TT, you can afford those parts.

Thats why I look for good, expensive (not ripoff) parts for my car, I don't want cheap chromed tin.

Hey there, uh , well i just had an exhaust on that was supposed to be really deep and very little raspy sound, turned out that's what it was. so............ i said ok, lets try something else, i got a muffler with a baffle, sounds really nice. but supposively, borla is supposed to be real deep. take the cherry bomb off and drop it off a quarry, it will be funny.

If you want new parts, and want to retain your cheap- I mean boro status, just spend the extra $30 and get a regular cherry bomb and toss that in as a resonator. A Prelude guy I know has that type of setup (not cherry bomb end muffler though), and it sounds pretty decent.
