so i am looking to swap out my piece o **** dual side exhaust that some DB put on the car before i bought it with something alot better. im looking for something that will give me a low rumble sound... almost like an old school mustang.... but also possibly give me some performance as well...does anyone have any ideas???

 

You aren't going to get V8 sound out of a 4 banger. I'm interested as well, I'll be doing exhaust in a few months and want low tone.

 

bump... anyone with an awesome low tone exhaust please post

 

I don't think there's any "great" sounding exhausts for the cobalt. Some sound better than others, but compared to many other cars they all sound like ****. That being said, I think the magnaflow sounds the best on the lsj.

 

what about the HAHN RACECRAFT FULL EXHAUST... i saw it on youtube and it sounds awesome... its kinda the sound im going for

 

^^^That's the best sounding exhaust for a Cobalt! I have a Hahn 3" catback and it sounds amazing! Even with the stock header and DP.

 

i like how my cars sounds this is wial i was seafoaming it and it had a slight exhaust leak
zzp mid lenght header downpipe and magnaflow catback

 

how much did you get your hahn exhaust for???

 

I scored mine used for $600 Canadian WITH the Hahn shorty header. I then sold the Hahn header for $300US. I want a mid-length header/DP eventually.

 

hmmm... wonder where i can find one that cheap... i really need a new exhaust and the way it sounds reminds me of my old GTI VR6 with a borla catback....*tear*

 

Keep your eye on the classified section.

 

your gonna get all kinds of answers here everyone saying theres is the best. i have a custom exhst so my opinion is not swayed by what i bought. the best ive heard on cars are gmpp, magnaflow, and borla. gmpp sounds good but its a 2 1/4 if your not modified id say that or if you are id say magnaflow or borla.

 

i ran a pacesetter header( 1 3/4 inch primaries, 3 inch collector) with a 3 inch catless downpipe and GMPP cat-back. sounded crazy. best cobalt sound i have ever heard by far

 

i went on youtube and heard the borla and it sounds good... but that hahn sounded AMAZING!!!

 

magnaflow! i have a 3 inch catback, no resonator and a magnaflow race muffler.

 

I had the GMPP for a while until I got the Hahn 3" used. The GMPP fails in 3 ways.
1)It felt very restrictive up top.
2)The huge resonator scrapes on speed bumps and is an eyesore.
3)It has an annoying drone between 2000-2500rpms, which is where it will be 90% of the time.

The Hahn 3" flows far better, has a slim resonator, and no drone at cruising speeds. It gets nice and loud up top though!

 

im running all Vibrant
the vibrant header/downpipe combo and the 3in exhaust
its very sexy at low rpms its a nice rumble with some beef, and at WOT it is super beast with a side of raspy-ness haha i think its crafted the same way as the Hahn exhaust similar design
i love the pops when i shift from gears and when i let off pop POP pop pure joy

 

anyone have an HKS muffler? like one of those big turbo ones on evo's and sti's?
