I know there are at least a couple of local Cobalt LNF owners that have the CIA cat back with DP. I'd like to meet up and see what that bad boy sounds like before plunking down $600, or any CB with a catted DP for that matter.

I installed my DP last night and it was way too loud for me (w/ no muffler), so I took it off tonight. But obviously since I bought it, I'll want to put it back on at some point (when there's a muffler back on the car)

So if you are up for a little meet and greet let me know

 

ive got their full exhaust but im LSJ lol.

 

i love the sound of my catless downpipe with muffler delete

 

your car does sound pretty good

 

i don't know what all andy has but his car sounds great i know he has something from CIA haha

 

i believe he has a full cia swap

 

well then his is def not Ttoo loud...its not quiet but its not WAY loud its nice.

 

i have a ZZP header/dp combo with stock catback and magnaflow muffler...im soon replacing it with a borla catback....

 

Soooo no one eh?

Darkfuzion all I can say is it's way too loud for "me" and mine was catted. When you have people walking down the street looking at you like you're an idiot, it's too loud. IMO

If I cringe when starting my car at 7am it's too loud.

I love some rumble but I can not stand cars with potato shooters coming out the back and mine was louder than that. I don't know maybe I'm just getting old here at 37 but really I want my car under 100db and that surly wasn't.

 

i know mine is higher

and i would suggest heading down to clear image and buying an exhaust and getting some resonators installed

 

That was the point of this thread......wanting to hear what it sounds like first before spending $600 to find out I don't like it.

If I'm going to install a bunch of resonators what would be the point of going with CIA for $600 + vs putting a muffler on my current stock exhaust?

 

cause a muffler is a restriction, resonators arent, and you will most likely only need one if not 2 midlength ones wich they can and will install as a part of the exhaust, i believe the exahust comes with one it it stock (mine did from them)

 

ahaha well i wish my car was louder but i'm also 17

 

yeah im installing the catted DP from CIA tomorrow morning, its 98* outside right now so im ready to get that going since i finally have the tools. i will be getting the cat back exhaust system later with an additional resonator to keep it quiet. when i go over the mountains ill let you hear my cobalt dual exhaust jbp header, it sounds great.

 

btw, it was good to meet you lol, my buddy that was with me wants your number so he can hook up with ya later, liked your cars and though you were a cool guy lol, mind if i shoot it to him?

 

Yeah u can give it to him. U didn't think I was a cool guy lol. Yeah I put the downpipe on guys. The cars sounds a tad but deeper. The power gains is definetly noticeable. I didn't realize the stock downpipes on our lnfs had two cats on them. You know what I mean! Lol

 

haha, i did think you were cool lol, he just lives ALOT closer lol
