muffler question
i was thinking about adding a muffler for a more aggressive noise.
Do they all make those aggressive noise even if I'm not accelerating hard?
I want something thats loud when I want it to be loud and not loud enough to catch the cops attention/wake up the whole neihborhood.
Is it as simple as buying the muffler, having the shop cut off my old one, weld the new one on?
What kind of muffler would u reccomend for a civic 01 lx coupe. Prefer one on the quiet side but loud when I want it to be especially not when I'm listening to music or want to hear my self talk.
oh yeah i also have automatic transmission is that still okay?
thanks

Dont get me wrong some mufflers are damn loud and some are not. usually the cheap muffler are the loud annoying ones, and the more expensive name brand one are the good ones.

I've got a Magnaflow muffler welded on stock piping. (http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...ain&id=767) It's verrry quiet, not raspy, deep, and smooth.

RE: muffler question
i don't know what a neutRon tip is, but you can't get it anywhere besides YOUR local store (alan). and also, are we seriously talking about a tip? because tips don't do sheit for the tone...

RE: muffler question
i think you're confusing a muffler and a muffler tip.
tip:
muffler:
the 2nd one changes the sound. the first one does not in any way whatsoever no matter what brand it is or how expensive it may be. heck, even a 24 karat gold muffler tip wouldn't change the sound.
