Ah yes! There's the mad cow sound from under the hood that all of us 2.4 drivers love so much.

From what I can tell yours sounds pretty much like a stock 2.4 now. Enjoy it!

Damn PIE, that sounds really really good. Um, I have a question, how were you able to install a SS/SC muffler? Isn't the 2.2L's piping smaller than the SS's?

Also, I have a K&N drop in, I wonder if it will sound the same with a SS muffler.

thanks raiden,

yea the piping is different but those guys did it without a problem...i guess they just somehow weld them together

i think it will sound different with the muffler, but only noticably louder and deeper from behind.

if you click on the link on my sig, you can see some pictures of the muffler

Wow, that looks really really good. I'm kind of a sucker for a big tipped muffler. And being that I have the stock exhaust w/ an angle cut tip, it looks good, but I want sound.

Anyways, PIE can you just purchase the muffler alone?
