Has anyone ever tried this? have any videos? i have the cobalt "sport" so it has the SS exhaust on it and tip, i just wanna know if it will sound decent. I like the sound on ss/tc's but i dont know if it will sound a lot different?

 

i have a header into 3" pipe all the way back, no cat, no resonator, no muffler. very loud and annoying, just how i like it

 

i have been wondering the same thing. been contemplating doing this

 

i think i may try it.. if it sounds liek ****, ill just throw the muffler back on.

 

it probably wont sound anything like the ss/tc unless you also have a turbo to quiet it down.

2.2 NA will be loud and buzzy and probably sound worse than some of the honda's i hear around here lol.... i still think you should try it though just for the sake of innovation

 

sounds like ****.. when i swapped out mufflers i took it for a drive around the block before i put my new muffler on and wowzers.. i will never have a muffler delete on a NA car

 

im swapping exhaust on my car... i started it up with no muffler. anyone who does a muffler delete with no turbo is STUPID. sounds like one big nasty wet fart!

 

i just want some more sound outta it without forking out $500.00 + for an exhaust.. can i just replace the downpipe?

 

omfg such a bad idea sounds like ass and is stupid loud.

 

first idk... the sport....was a 2.2... but regardless... to make urs louder without putting 500 bucks....just get a 3 or 4 inch muffler they go for a 100 and sound pretty good... then put that on. also get urself a header but with intake and muffler u should be good... if u want really loud well u gotta pay thats the thing man sorry...

 

thanks man!

what kinda muffler are we talking? could you link me an example?

 

well i went to a universal one that cost me 100 bucks i like the tone on it... some guys might wanna chip in with mufflers... as mine wasnt well know I think so i got lucky. but do a google search for cobalt mufflers and check it out. Look in the 2.4 section and under longtube headers thread cordia posted a vid of a hushpower II muffler... I will try to get link. but im at work so give me a sec

its on the last page and yes I know its on a eclipse but thats one example other can help u with the others... i think mine was apexi. I will check when i get home cause i took it off

 

that eclipse sounds unreal!!
so the hushpower muffler, i would just weld in place of the stock one and then weld my tip on the end?

 

I cut my old one off and welded it on. I didn't need a tip mine came all with I figured they always did

 

Message cordia about it he is the one that would know about the huspower

 

Get the tsudo cat back.under 300 bucks

my 2.2 how it sounded when we took the muffler off

 

I personally prefer the header back ss exhaust on my 2.2. Sounds deep, gargles at the bottom end.

 

i have the ss/tc catback on mine with the ss/sc header and dp...

 

get the ss/sc stock exhaust manifold and dp with the tsudo n1 2.25" catback and ur gonna be real happy. u wont lose back pressure and it will sound nice

 

Backpressure

 

i got a ss/tc catback for sale with a aftermarket resonator and megan racing muffler if youre interested.

but honest opinion, i wouldnt do a muffler delete. it would just sound retarded.....much like a car that sounds like its going fast but is goin nowhere. you dont wanna be the entertainment of the town lol

 

very true ^

 

I cut mine off. And left it that way. No gain or loss in power. and I like the sound. Its all just matter of opinion really.
