I would probably sugest a silencer in the place of the cats. Becouse I have header back with a free flow muffler and it is preaty darn loud especially when it backfires on me and I have the silencer in there already so I can only imagina how loud it would be without it.

i dont know what everyone is talking about.........i have RB header with straight pipe to RB muffler and its so quite it pisses me off...i want to put a n1 style muffler on the back but cant find the over axle pipe unless i cut my rb muffler off and ad a flange to the back like the 80's style comes with the weld a flange onto the n1 can then i can just swap out the mufflers as i like.....either that or im going to buy one of those dividers that have a pull cord so you can alternate between your exghst route...but put nothing on one end and keep my RB setup on the other

I got a cat-back with magnaflow muffler right now. I LOVE the sound, itll be converted to straight all the way as soon as I finish the turbo, so it'll probably wind up to my tastes in loudness since a turbo kinda muffles a bit as well. And those backfires are fun, I say the louder ones are the BEST ones, i made a cop almost **** his pants when i was driving by one that pulled over a kid for racing, it backfired and he ducked his head down. Man I never laughed so hard in my life.

i want mine to back fire!!!!! once i took off my rats nest it stoped..but one time leaving my friends house i held the choke on untill i got to main street which has nothing but buildings so it echoed loud and all these girls from my school ducked and streamed..it reminded me of that ebaums world video with the air horn...and another time i got kicked off campus because they thought it was a gun and it scared students and staff

Removal of rats nest rids you of backfiring? Thats odd, well I know something that I'm not going to do any time soon.

yah, instead of backfiring, youll just flame, you wont feel it or hear it, it will just happen, have somebody drive ur car that u trust, and tell them to bring ur car to like 8 grand in 3rd gear, then let off to 4 grand -hold it- then let off.. should flame

Is it safe to push a 12A up to 8K rpm?

Do you guys have any sound clips of your exaust setup. I think this could help alot of people in the quest to find an exaust for them.

You can bring a 12A up to 8000, but you hsouldnt make it a habit of lways going that high, and just dont hold it that high for more than a short instance.

I have magnaflow exhaust. I could take some videoclips (with sound, of course) with my digital camera inside and outside the car if you'd like.

i got a clip of my full rb exhaust on my sa, but i don't know how to post it up. Can anyone host it or something?

I only reved it to like 3500-4000, and it sounds better if you turn the volume up.
