Loud exhaust

Is the stock exhaust really really loud on everyones ss/sc?

I mean, Mine is louder than most of all the cars that I have seen with aftermarket exhaust... When I looked at it, it measures, 3 in and is all mandrel bent. Does that sound like all of the others here? I am not sure if it is stock or not. I bought the car with 6k miles on it,.

for a stock exhaust its not bad...i dont know whats up with yours,,,but i cant even hear mine unless its at certain rpm's...i personally think the stock exhaust is too high pitched, and a little raspy... im still looking for a nice deep exhaust tone

The stock system is mild-mannered. Install Corsa's sport system and you and everyone within a couple hundered yards of your car will understand loud. I have goosed it a couple of times around shopping centers and gotten the "hornblasters" reaction.

you bought the wrong car..
your not going to get that deep gargle exhaust tone out of a 4 banger.. thats not how it works..

exhuast tone is 5% exhuast 95% cam specs

for a four banger, this SRT4 has a pretty throuty sound to it...pretty deep i think...sorry asstime im going to have to disagree with you when u say this is all too farty for you ...farty to me is the tin can exhausts that u hear most honda civics rolling with...but to each his own

^^^Dont forget that the SRT has no mufflers. Take off the exaust, and it literally sounds like a diesel.

i really doubt the exhaust is 3" mandrel bent stock
you must be measuring the exhaust tip
measure the actual pipe's circumference, do some math, and figure out the diameter

if thats what you consider "throaty" well.. to each his own i guess.. but imo im sorry but that is not throaty at all.. but i guess if thats as throaty as it can get with 4 banger.. then dido
