Its impossible to do it correctly imo...which would be like the viper. Through the bottom sill. Not underneath it. Would look extremely slick tho.

Curious what your setup will be and how it will sound.

Sounds good, but is loud and gets really annoying on a SS/TC. A NA would be even worse....

very loud man.. and the TC's dont have enough back pressure imo.. there was a guy with a yellow turbo cobalt and he had the side exit and his stock ko4 blew cause of not enough back pressure. but you dont have a turbo so your gonna have a whole lot of noise

You'll probably scrape the **** out of it any time you go over a speed bump or something.

I side-piped my orange turbo LSJ. Im on Koni K-sports...low in the front, high in the back. Went with a Hushpower Pro Series muffler b/c its the quietest round performance muffler. It is "drony" which you will never get away from with such a short exhaust. If you can tolerate the extra noise it looks badass and sounds badass...if you are turbocharged. My friends, cobalt lovers or not, love it.

lolwut?
I didn't see anything about anyone giving you permission to speak



OP:
If you can do it properly, I will look good.

Its gonna suck; drone, loud, prolly get noise complaints, possibly tickets

My personal opinion is that it's not worth it.

I always wondered if it was possible to have a stock catback, then a DP with a cutout BUT with a pipe on the cutout going to a side exhaust.....? Can you weld a pipe onto a cutout?

Lack of back pressure killed a turbo this guy should just stick to making stupid threads. like he usually does...

I had exactly that done, they make a flange kit for it so you can bolt the flange to the cut out then weld pipe to the flange. I loved it but it rattle and scraped on everything lol.
