Exhaust Question

Hey guys, i'm currently running an Injen Cold Air Intake. I just ordered a Bad-Mab header (hate all you want) And I saw that Hahn has a deal on their catback/downpipe combo for 599. I am wondering if anyone has a video of this setup and how it sounds. I saw a video of the Bad-Mab with a Hahn downpipe but with a zzp 3" catback and that sounded awesome imo but I know the catback can make a big difference. So if anyone has any sound clips please let me know! Thanks again!

Just picked up a Bad-Mab header, Hahn catless downpipe, and Hahn catback. (yes I do plan on going TVS and staged) that is why I decided to go 3" all the way back. I'll have it in next week and plan on installing it then as well. I'll post sound clips as well. thanks for your help guys!

Bad-Mab Header: 165.00 - Bad News Racing
Hahn DP/Catback: 599.00 - Hahn

765.00 for the full set up not bad imo. well see how it sounds!

im kind of second guessing myself now, I still am getting the bad-mab header, im just debating on a catback/downpipe now. Since the header has a 3" collector I need a 3" downpipe correct? So what about going with a ZZP catted downpipe (3") and a hahn 2.5" catback? how would that be for gains?

not to thread jack, but i didnt feel like making a thread, my car will idle super low, like 250-500 rpm when i start it or come to a stop, like its choking... could it be because it has the stock header and dp? i just bought the car a week or so ago and will eventually get a full exhaust but for right now all it has is a catback, thanks

If this is my old car, I had a catless down pipe also.
