Full system si the way to go especially if done right and it can be cheaper... an intake and exuast system on my 2002 - 2200 (non ecotec) 2.2l cavy made a world of difference

I just had a magnaflow muffler put on my car today, and I must say, I love it. It has a very solid look to it and it makes my base model stand out alot more. The sound can make some mistake the car for a ricer. I'm not sure what the estimated HP gain is, but I can notice a little more pep in the car, and I love hammering on it now

**** the wrx titanium one sounds the best out of ALL the cars on there!

so let me get this straight... the smaller the engine the more rice it sounds when u put an aftermarket exhaust on it? because the subaru is like 2.5L, and it sounds nice as hell, does this mean the ecotec 2.4L will sound around that. or does it sound nice because the subaru has a boxer?
btw the scion craker box car sounds like a lawn mower.

did you have the whole cat back exhaust or just the muffler? i doubt you will gain any hp w/ just welding the muffler to your stock pipping. got any pics?

i actually already bought an aero-turbine muffler. i'm just waiting to get it installed. http://www.aero-turbine.com/?flash=1
i got the 2.5 in 2.5 out. the main reason i bought it was for the gas milage increase. but yeah, i'm excited and can't wait to install it.
