If you straight pipe it it will only sound good if it is a side exit before the tire with no resignator/muffler and you have to have some type of aftermarket header. I ran JBP header, stock DP no catback for a couple months and it was beasty as hell.

he would also have to change the downpipe to catback flange as the TC uses 3 bolt. but thats all.

muffler-less on a n/a 4 banger generally sounds like ****.

Try running open header for a few days... I hated the sound and volume.
