best exhaust for a good price
 
Hey guys, im looking to get some decently loud exhaust on my 2009 Ss/tc without gettin' alot of tickets. I want a full 3in system but which muffler should I get with it? Also will removing my cats set a code off?

matt638 05-17-2012 01:22 AM

yeah going catless may cause a code, but some guys get lucky and it doesn't throw a code, and Modern Performance makes a pretty nice exhaust

RobMc3 05-17-2012 01:23 AM

Forgot to mention I have to keep my powertrain warranty

09sscalicobalt 05-17-2012 01:24 AM

going catless will throw a code eventually and your choices are mpx hahn zzp megan racing and i know im missing one or two companies lol

and keeping your powertrain warranty and modding the car is a crapshoot....some dealers care some done im lucky mine doesnt lol

RobMc3 05-17-2012 01:44 AM

Im gonna have to ask em. I don't think ill get megan because I know a guy with that and it sounds like a candy wrapper is stuck inside it lol. Never heard of mpx. Which do you recommend between hahn and zzp?

matt638 05-17-2012 01:46 AM

Zzp

09sscalicobalt 05-17-2012 09:54 AM

the megan sounds good but its only a 2.5" at least for now and mpx is modernperformance there from texas and make there own parts there exhaust sounds really good!

if you get a catless DP from zzp they have a O2 defouler to help with the possibility of a CEL coming on.


if your trying to retain your warranty,im sure your not tuned or maybe your GMS1. a Cat-back exhaust really is worth the money to power ratio...

catless DP+muffler delete on the stock cat back=legit but sort of loud

Turbo XS!

badmab catless $130 or zzp catless $150
modern performance 3" exhaust with muffler delete $350
$500 will sound great and good quality

riceburner 05-17-2012 03:36 PM

they are all extremely loud gotta say that

09sscalicobalt 05-17-2012 04:03 PM

he has a ss/tc not a ss/sc lol tcs are usually pretty quiet unless you do a muffler delete

09TcSedan 05-17-2012 05:53 PM

if you go catless its only loud at WOT,depending on cat back also

K-Train04RL 05-17-2012 06:04 PM

what about mpx catted dp and muffler delete? loud as hell highway drone? or just loud when u get on it?

09TcSedan 05-17-2012 06:13 PM

cant talk from experience about MPX. ive herd good things about it though

nobody2u 05-17-2012 06:16 PM

Don't do a muffler delete, It's obnoxious. I roll my eyes every time some douche comes cruising by when his car sounds as loud as a regular car at WOT. You will probably like it for about two weeks, then it will get annoying with the drone.

K-Train04RL 05-17-2012 06:16 PM

i have the mpx catted dp and love it, just looking for maybe a lil more sound, just dont want highway drone

That is just my opinion keep in mind. You will get more sound going from the stock 2.5 inch to the 3 as well.

muffler delete sounds good IMO. i bought my exhaust used from my buddy. he had his turbo back Hahn exhaust on for i think 2 summers and then the beginning of last summer he cut the big ass hahn muffler off and put a high flow in and i think it sounds great. it is a hair on the loud side but at WOT it sounds amazing. the stock hahn muffler was too quiet or atleast my friend though so lol
