2.2 Header/dp +? Exhaust thread vids

I have ZZP Midlength Header/DP Catted with a ZZP resontor (older style not 3 chamber) and a tsudo axle back. its WAY too loud for me.


Just trying to think of what I should do for the least possible cost. Right now this is my plan but I want to hear what other people use for there catback after that setup with exhaust vids if you have them.

I might end up getting that, let me here what a few of you guys have though.

I don't have any vids yet, but I got a Magnaflow 2.5" offset in and out, it's a tight fit but makes the car a ton quieter. I have a badmab shorty with zzp 2.5" catted dp, 2.5" vibrant cat back. Sounds really good, and not that loud.

Does the same brand of muffler center/center vs offset/offset have the same internals since its not straight in/out?

I got LSJ header/dp with a zzp 2.5 catback. Not too loud at all. a little quieter then my old muffler hack off with a "glasspack" in its place.

Basically same internals, with opposing offset in/out, you get an S shape inside the muffler. It's a little more restrictive, which helps keep the noise down.

Sandman - that's real quiet lol

sandmans 2.2 doesn't sound too much different than mine (ZZP mid/dp ZZP 2.5 catted) Not going to be sacrificing quality for loudness or pitch with the ZZP catback though it is a little on the expensive side, you get what you pay for. I have a ZZP 3 chambered res im selling if you think that it would make a difference on your car.
