i am all preped up to be loud... header, presilencer (racingbeat) to... catback with resonator right after presilencer, and a can.. looks just like that with no burnt tip.. but its a jic cat back hahah i ordered my silencer insert.. to further protect my ticketing. lol and going to look for the springs, i got some random springs holding my muffler in place.

back to the topic.. try making a borla xr1 presilencer, or resonator... i heard they do wonders, especially the offset style.

the turbo will not be as loud as the NA but it will still be loud probably get a resonator later when the project is all done.

The car is a bridgeported big turbo car. It was loud with just the mufflers. No cats.

The mufflers are a DTM style straight through muffler, similar to what Vibrant sells but from a different manufacturer.
