Cobalt ls 2.2 muffler delete question HELP
ok dont know if this is in right section but i have the following mods:
LSJ exhaust mani, ZZP 2.5 highflow downpipe, and that into 2.25 piping with a muffler fart can thing, and was wondering if it would sound good with a muffler delete
should i just go to a muffler shop and ask them to cut it off and drive ir around for a little bit or what?
Thanks guys, also anyvideos or anything will be appreciated
Thanks, Matt

I ran open header and open downpipe for a while(while waiting on OTTP to send me my new downpipe which I ordered before my old one snapped at the flex pipe...) and open DP sounded ******* great but it was stupid loud.

I think the stupid loud sums it up. I mounted two Flowmaster 2.5" diam Hushpowers in line on mine. One was "stupid loud", two in line is just loud enough. I wouldnt recommed that route however unless you can get them used ($130 somethin each new) Picked mine up from a buddy with an '04 GTO. He didnt like the sound.

Ok, real exhaust basics.
Cats they make the car quieter and less raspy... But you cant shoot flames.
Resonators, make the car less raspy/shitty/honda sounding. The longer the less rasp and deeper the tone will be. I find a lot of them end up making the car sound like a boat though.
Mufflers. give you the look you want and change the sound around the most. Borgwarner makes the best, followed by Holset, IHI, Garrett, and stainless works.
