Muffler vs no muffler. Stock dp, no tune.

Is this rice or does it sound good?

 

sounds good to me. sounds even better with a catless DP

 

It'll sound good

 

It sounds good. Drones a little on the highway, but nothing unbearable. Would you like a sound clip?

 

if you feel up to it sure. Always nice to hear it

 

OK, here's a short vid from a while ago when I had my MD. It's just cold start up and a few revs, but hopefully it will help. I don't have any vids of the drone, but it wasn't nothing I couldn't stand. Most people didn't even notice it, just me.

called up meinke auto, they said 70$. Too much? Btw your car sounds BEAST

 

70$ too much

 

i got mine done for 30 bucks at midas

 

Prob not stainless.. I learned my lesson taking the cheap route on exhaust didn't last one winter with salt. I had a small resonator put in where the muffler was with stainless and stock tailpipe.

 

Midas and car x didn't answer when I called, will call tomorrow.

 

looks good to me.

 

That it does, I just don't like the gurgle. I might put a resonator on the rear for a little less gurgle.

 

i love the gurgle half the reason i wanna do this haha

Edit: just called a local shop to see what the damage would be on this... they wont even do it at our midas here they said it wont pass my MVI without a muffler where i live i knew that a muffler was required however i was led to believe that anything that impedes exhaust flow is a muffler so was thinkin the turbo would be considered a muffler ? guess now... how do SRT4 guys get safety inspected i wonder...

 

sounds good, got my done couple weeks ago.

 

gonna keep calling shops... must be a place that'll do it ...

 

sounds muy bueno

 

fakemean, it sounds 4 stars? lol with a word filter that could mean anything. I wonder if "boobies" is filtered haha

 

guess not

 

I've called carx, meineke, and midas, all estimating around 70-100 dollars (via phone). 60ish for labor, I call bull****.

I suspect less when I bring the car in for them to take a look at it, but I'm afraid that when they see a teenager pull in they're raise the price a bit...

 

im only 20, but im military. however i didnt tell them that, and i look like a college student. idk why ur getting quoted so high. i went in, they put the car on the lift. i said, cut this out, put regular piping in its place. "30 bucks" done deal. the whole thing took 20 mins. not even. must be where ur located.

 

Call a local guy not a big name company they'll charge less

 

They said a couple hrs worth of labor. I'll have to bring it in to see how much itll truly be

 

lol. wow. they must suck at life.

 

I paid the same at those places but doesn't last in the salt yours looks good and don't think you have to worry about salt on the road..
