yea yea exhaust thread.. lol

ok sooo i just got my cti catback installed this weekend and suprise suprise it's too loud for my taste.. for town driving it's not bad .. but there's a rasp to it at WOT that pisses me off so i'm looking to get something quieter.. i like the borla proxs but thats the top of my range price wise.. i like the dynomax super turbos as well as the thrush super hush but what's everyone elses take the current muff is a magnaflow but it's a total straight through design..

lol wut lol

i'm thinking about seeing if i can get a longer resonator from cti since the one thats on there is pretty rusty on the outside ..

it's mostly the tone that pisses me off .. downlow it sounds awesome just when you floor it it's like BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAP PP BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAP

not QUITE far cannon .. but getting there. lol

and yea i know installing a turbo will help but i'm not doing it ..

I have this set up with a resonator and I chose the magnaflow hiflow can and I have no rasp at all, sounds great, about to install a zzp catless DP on Wed, hopefully I still don't hear a rasp after that.

no, not at all, the muffler shop that installed mine had to do a little tweaking to the set up, nothing major though, just the ears that connect to the rubbers were re located to solve those problems.
