I installed a bonez race pipe last week and I love the sound of it. This next week or so I should be getting the Cork Sport catback and I've heard that, that combo is rather loud but nice sounding... Some guy posted sound clips of it...

What cops can't see, can't hurt

I don't live in an emissions controlled state, so I don't get smogged and cops don't check for cats here I've yet to be pulled over for having loud exhaust in my town

you can even save more money and weight, forget going back to a dual system. get the bonez pipe, have a muffler shop build you a 3'' exhaust and throw on some ebay mufflers. who cares if u have an empty slot on one side.

Uh putting a non-functional mufflers on the side is dumb. Just fill in the slot. I would still prefer the duals over the single unless I had an FD or an FB. Oh and a 3" inch exhaust can be counterproductive and you can loose torque and auxlilary port actuation loosing top end.

a dummy mufflers......... that falls under the catagory of rice... looks over function, sure you could go with single, but a functional duel would be worth it i can shoot two flames can you do that with your dummy. haha

I recomend the ebay replicas they are good quality, cheep and yeah.. i have no complaints

you would shoot flames wouldn't you. flamer. for real though. i wouldn't put a dummy, some people actually care about keeping a somewhat stock look. lots of people i've heard from in tampa pull out the Y piece and weld in a straight pipe in place of it with stock pipes and create more power.

Your only option would be get a large displacement motor!! Rotaries sound like weed wackers more than any other car.

What does the Brullen exhaust sound like, and how much did you pay for it?

my car sounds deep, all i have in it is a downpipe.

i was thinking headers and a single "top speep" or somthing cat back, its some generic HIGH flow muffler.
