i drive an 88 gxl, and i want it to be loud!!! i don't really want to keep the dual setup either..

thanks in advance

 

The loudest would be no exhaust.

 

haha thats what i've got right now.. well i have the y pipe. but i don't really likt the way it sounds like a tractor, it sounds really bad when it idles

 

Straight through set up

 

open header.

 

Open manifold. I did it while removing clogged cats, it was loud as ****. Got some nice flames under the car too. Too damn loud for any actual driving though. An Apex'i N1 sounds decent and is pretty loud. The Corksport exhausts are pretty loud too.

 

buddy club spec II exhaust

 

yeha i want a muffler and all, they don't check for having a cat if it's an 88 right? cann i straightpipe it? i mean the cats allready gutted.. but anybody know a good muffler that would make it really loud, and not sound bad?

 

you're defeating the purpose by looking for a muffler. A muffler does as its name implies, it muffles. Straight pipe FTL (For The Loud)!!!

btw, look down under this thread on the main page, there's a thread about using those "Tornado" things, I hear they make an exhaust louder and the car faster, and like 35mpg too! lol

 

thats why i recomended the BC spec II. its pretty much a straight pip with a resonator. its bearable w/ the silencer in, but still loud as hell.. its sounds pretty good on hondas until the upper rpm range, then it gets kinda raspy.

this clip illestrates its sound pretty well

Don't exhausts with silencers basically plug the end up except for a very small hole? Wouldn't this create undesired back pressure in the exhaust system?

 

I just dump the wastegate to atmosphere. It's quiet when I want it to be (relatively). I've got a Borla XR-1 up where the main cat was run back into Apexi N1 duals.

 

corksport FTMFW!

 

use one single little resonator as your main muffler

 

mine was stupid lound custo piping it was racing beat headers 2.5 piping stright to a n1 muffler the 115mm one

 

loud is overrated but here is a nice way to get loud. headers+3 1/2 pipe with flowmaster sinlge chamber muffler and a 4" tip.

 

racingbeat header with nothing else

 

yeah racing beat heaers and 3 inch striaght pipe back haha

 

Pep Boys $20 glass pack. Will get even louder as it melts and turns into a through pipe over time. Bonus!

You might as well go into a hardware store and ask for a lock that's easy to bypass in case you ever lock yourself out. You won't get a straight answer, and really anything cheap will do that. Try telling people what kind of tone you want, that'll give you some better responses.

 

Here's a helpful hint, it's not going to sound any better than that if it's louder.

 

yeah... i was gonna make a smart *** post... but then decided it wasnt worth my time... so i decided to write this and agree that this thread is lame... sorry...


corksport -> FTW

 

If you want something loud, and quality all at the same time, then go corksport.

 

Put a megaphone next to the open manifold.

 

HKS superdrag is 109 dbs i think

 

only good company that comes to mind.....BlastPipes!! w/ straight through desighn system.....just my opinion
