So I have a stock exhaust and somethin is rattling. I took it to a exhuast shop and they said its somethin rattling inside the exhaust and they would have to take my whole exhaust apart to get it. So I'm thinking why do all that, I minds well get a aftermarket exhaust. What size is good for a catback? 2.5 all the way back? And what a good exhuast but cheap?

 

I am looking to buy an exhaust too, but I have researched some threads here. Is your car stock??? If it is u should get 2.5" from front to back. I heard Megan Racing sounds nice, loud but nice. Also if your looking to really hook ur car up then go for 3", but only if ur going to give it a couple of mods that will get u to 260whp. If not it's a loss of power for u, so I'd suggest stay with the 2.5" Good Luck

 

ok im on a stock downpipe, i just gutted my cat. So is a pacesetter exhaust good? How do they sound?

 

The pacesetter is kind of loud and not the best sounding, but it doesnt sound awful either. I actually have one that I would sell if you are intersted. Let me know after you do some more research. I will say this though, when it comes to catbacks you really do get what you pay for.

 

I have a gmpp exhaust for sale $300 shipped

 

damn bro, i just gave away my magnaflow exhaust lol. but i like the magnaflow it sounded pretty awesome and after searching around i found a mandrel bend magnaflow on ebay for like 250. i wish i would have found that before i brought the $600 system

 

Wow. I was you tubing some sounds. Pacesetter sounded ok but I like hahn the best but at this time of year I don't wanna come out of pocket wit 600 + for a catback. So the dude with the pacesetter. How much you selling it for? As for the gmpp catback? I will keep you in mind hopefully it doesn't sell if I can't find nothin esle

 

I just got my hahn and love it, but it was hard getting myself to spend that much for it.

Ill sell the pacesetter for $120 shipped if youd like. Ill let you know this though, right now there is an electric cutout in the first pipe right after the downpipe. If you want the cutout too you can have it all for $200 shipped, or I can put the piping back in and have it for the first price I mentioned. Ill get pics and a video up in an hour or so since I have a class to go to quick

 

That's sounds cool I don't want the cutout tho. Not right now. Will that catback bolt straight up to my stock downpipe?

 

man im telling you now. hahn or magnaflow they may be a little pricy but in the long run you wont be changing exhaust or complaning thats its too loud. but thats just me.....

 

I mean I could get a resonator cut in couldn't I?

 

you should buy my used magnaflow

 

Yeah you can put a resonator on it. Without the res I liked in on my stock header and downpipe, but when I got the vibrant combo the pacesetter was too loud for my liking. I have a video that I took with the stock resonator and the the rest of the pacesetter exhuast. Ill post it up quick let me find it.

 

Idk. Infaredline gave me a good price. I'm not looking to spend any arm and a leg. I got a family to buy gifts for. The only reason I'm getting a catback is becuase my stock exhaust. Somethin is rattling inside of it. Rather to pay to have that fixed. I will just get a aftermarket one

 

Here is the clip. This is stock res to pacesetter piping and muffler.

 

and this will bolt straight up to the stock cat right

 

Yep I used it on my stock header and downpipe before I got the vibrant

 

pmed

 

i got a magnaflow catback used from another local cobalt driver, sounds great, im impressed

 

I think I've decided to go the custom route. I just need to talk to local shops, see who can do it. Just buy what muffler and resonator I want and have them fab up the piping. I can't see myself dropping over $600 on new catback. That's recockulous.
