Default what if i add just a muffler?@?@!

If i was to buy a greddy muffler or some other decent muffler then added it to my car without the whoel catback system...will it still sound okay? I dont really care about gaining any horsepower cause im just going for a good sound and a good look...any advice would be great

Just drill holes in your stock muffler, should sound about the same

you know what sounds the best? just screw the cat and the exhaust and then modify your header, drill a hole in the hood, and mount the header upside down, just sticking right out the top of the hood. that sounds great...and i hear its even better for the environment than having a stock exhaust, random tech. cat and lean your feul/air ratio down as low as is safe.




















im just kidding if you didnt pick up on that

^you wise crack stealing ***** fu...


hhaha, just playin man, I will do that someday tho.


....Languagemaster. I hope you dont take these comments to personally, or seriously for that matter. The idea we're trying to get you to see is that a muffler is non-functional, and 9 times outta 10, its going to sound really bad. (like an angry bee in a coffee can..) I'd go with the catback if I were you. Mine was only $307 shipped to my door. PM me if you need any other info

i bought a used n1 style (it is a smaller one 3 inch tip) and had a custom 2.25 inch exhaust welded in from my cat. it is loud but sounds real good, even better now that i have vtec. it is certainly a lot better than 500 dollar cat back
