Exclamation Exaust help!!!!!

Last week...i installed a CS cat-back...It sounded very nice..all deep and throaty...freinds said it sounded like mean monstar bout to eat a WRX up.....but it was a little too loud...
So i bought a silencer..... after that...my car sounded like tha noise was going everywhere...allmost like a ricer fart can farting....freinds said it sounds like king kong ate a bad dinner.....

Is it the silencer??? i noticed the silencer to me a little loose even when the screw and the nut is lockewd dead....is it possible to make a gasket kinda thingy for a silencer?

I think the silencer he is referring to is the one u put in the muffler tip. If you silencer out the sound is back to normal?

If you want to use the gasket sealer just got buy a tube of black RTV silicon sealant at kragen and loosen the sections of exhaust apart and just smear a good layer in between the flanges. Finger tight them and let it cure for a while 10 minutes and then torque them down. That may not be your problem though.

What size is the piping for the exhaust? I have extra exhaust gaskets sitting around that I dont need if you want to buy them but they are 2.5" I think.
