I'm a ***** and old fart...I don't want to be driving around with a drone on long trips.
Anyone with sound clips for a catted DP appreciated. If ya don't have one..catless will do.
I have already listened to a couple already posted here (catless) but I'd like to hear more..especially with a CAT on em (I'm in Ca).

Thanks....

 

Catless with stock exhaust sounds great not loud untill WOT

 

^^ agreed. sometimes when i get on it kinda hard in 1st or 2nd its a little loud, but cruising on the highway i dont even notice it

 

A black turbo SS came up on me on the highway and told me he only had a gutted cat it sounded pretty damn good when he got on it plus when he was lettin off. Not annoying loud either

 

That's not my set up but have driven behind Rukke and it sounds great has a good bark to it and sounds normal just cruising

 

Ronn, I ran catted aftermarket + stock exhaust for a few months. My wife didn't notice. There's no doubt it's a little louder, but not much. I have a sedan, so the acoustics will be slightly different. With a catback, I don't have much significant drone at any cruising speeds. There's a little resonance below 2k, probably around like 1.5 or so, but really, I don't cruise in that range.

I think the only time you'll notice the difference between catted aftermarket vs stock dp is during cat warmup, and when you really get on it. I never had any resonance.

 

Thanks..good thing ya mentioned the wife.......she somtimes accompanies me on trips and that requires dealing with my *driving* (which is challenging enough for her)..no need to add another *issue*. From what you have said here..looks like all is well. I had a custom DP and EVO cat back set up on my Camry SC. It was *tolerable*, but a bit intrusive on long drives. My SS/TC is so damn quiet and mellow I would just hate to give that up.
Looks like I may go ahead..we'll see.

 

hahn catless down pipe and hahn catback is real smooth and purr's at idle, real managable. nice burles and gun pops coming back off hard throttle!

 

How does it compare in sound to this catless ZZP?
(Anyone else may also chime in compared to other brands).

YouTube - 2010 Cobalt SS/TC 3" ZZP Catless DP

 

thats a lot louder than my setup, i'll take a video today if weather cooperates.

 

I wouldn't mind hearing the Hahn Catted DP with the Hahn Catback....if anyone has any clips. Everything i have found on You tube is with a Catless DP and the hahn catback has the resonater deleted.

 

My car has a zzp spun metal cat and it is stock sounding when I am cruzing on the highway. I did a trip from Denver CO to Rapid city SD and my wife slept most of the time so it passes that test. But if I womp on it, it is louder than stock.

 

I wouldnt be revving the car when you just started it. The cold start exhaust noise is masking what it should sound like... (not to mention the garage echo)

I'll go make a video now. I have a catted CIA DP with stock exhaust.

 

Okay I really suck at making video's lol. I'll post them as soon as they load...

Yeaaaaa... couldnt make too much noise, sorry, at work right now as you will find out in my next vid, lol. The last rev was so far from the others because a co worker was walking by...

also, sorry for lame allergy gurgles from me.


And.... the next part to this two part series, lol.

Thanks!!
Sounds great.

 

It's a little louder than stock, def has more gurgles. I love it. Did u get in trouble for the tire spin with security, Joe?

 

lolz, no. but they got camera's in that lot, hopefully they dont have sound. speed limits 15mph in the lot I probably went 20 something real quick and let off. That was my cell phone that made those videos sorry for the poor quality.

the security guy was in his car on the otherside so he definately didnt hear me I think.
