With only one muffler, pretty loud. I'd use a resonator if I were you.

Of course, loud is all a matter of opinion, and I like *quieter* exhaust compared to most.

It's going to be SO loud, people will run in fear LONG before they see you so the streets will always be deserted for you.

Ha your in Va cops will be all over you! Can't say much for anywhere else, but I do know our cops get off on giving exhaust tickets. The route you are going with the exhaust will surely get the attention of the local cops.

here in ny they only mess with u if u seem like ur acting like a jackass. but then again it would be so loud that they would think that anyway. if i was u try to get that resonator on it it will be STUPID loud. mine is stupid loud now with just a duel catback.

I built a custom exhaust with a header, TWO highflow cats, a 4" diameter, 6" long resonator AND a 8" diameter, 18" long magnaflow.

It was still way too loud. Loud enough that one of those hellhole Virginia cops would have had me hauled in for it.

You need a bigger muffler and a bigger resonator. And it'll still be loud. Also, put a cat on it. Otherwise it'll smell so crappy nobody will ever want to be around you or your car.

I just built custom three inch exhaust on my T2. Granted the turbo does some muflling, I used a cat, two resonators and two magnaflow stainless mufflers and it's sounds really nice. Not real loud. Without the turbo, I'd imagine it would be much louder.

Yeah dude you are definitely going to have some problems and honestly it would be very uncomfortable after a while. My last NA was like that.
