convincing

hello, I need help to convince my Dad to let me buy a RB cat back system. I have the money for it now, but he is concerned about how fast it will be. I know it will give me power, but it will also give me a much cooler sound. Is there anyway that you know of that I could convince him to let get the exhaust? thank.

poke a hole in your muffer... then say you need to replace it because its leaking and you might get a noise ticket.

The RB system is the most cost effective replacement of the stock system and keeping the noise levels down.

You have a NA.

A cat back isn't going to add much power if any.

TaDa.

yeah, but he thinks that I am throwing away my money by doing that, but hopefully he will come around.

basically, the catback is the least effective exhaust component in the way of gaining power, especially with the $$ most of them cost.. if you have an NA, you can get the bonez superflow system for the same price as the catback and gain more power and still be emissions legal.
