i stopped by this place that does all kinds of stuff for your car. they will order parts and install them and stuff. anyway i asked if he could get me a good price on some DC sports headers and he said "I dont think anyone makes headers for your car" well me being the nice person i jsut said 'okay'. then my next question. how much for custom exhaust. he says "i can make you an exhaust from the cat back for........ $375" again i just said 'okay thanks' walked out and busted out laughing. no way in hell im paying $400 for an exhaust.

Thats way 2 much!! I have 2.25in piping from the cat for 80 bucks!! Than i just bought a muffler!! Becarful which muffler you buy, the 1st one was a arospeed and it sucked!! So i bought a Apexi N1 turbo muffler!! Bc its a turbo muffler its huge!! So when i had it put on the guy had 2 add 2.5in going 2 the muffler from like 2 feet back!!(by the back tire) The more $$$ you spend the better it will sound!! You should either get a high flow CAT or replace your stock CAT with a resonator!!!

well ur in Florida where emissions is like extinct. And be good to ur environment too. U def gotta go with a Highflow cat. I am really suprised on how u got it done for 80 bucks. The least i went was 175 on my stock replacement from the downpipe and flex and cat and a new muffler when i got my car.

Ya im getting a resonater in place of my cat and a Dc sports header!!! My first muffler was like $130 it was a pacesetter!! I just put a Apexi N1 turbo and that was like $215!! The Apexi sounds so much more clear!!! Its defenitely worth the $$$

i took that to mean just the piping was $80. there is no way you can get an N1 and piping for $80.

Ya sorry!! The piping was 80 bucks and i just swapped out the arospeed (peace of shit) for the 200 dollar N1!! With the arospeed and the piping was like 220 and than swapped in the N1!!

why did u not look into Dynomax super turbo muffler? Why go with a N1? cause as u know the dynomax is just 35 bux and its a renouned company and unlike pacesetter it aint a piece of shit.

I hate the way a Dynomax sounds!!! Id rather spend a little more money and have it look and sound better!! I always try to buy high quility shit for my car!!! Nothing can beat the sound or looks of an N1!!!

hey kevin, can you post the time slips for the 16 seconds...
that's quite quick for a 3G...
I thought the normal stock time would be in the late 18's for an auto..
what's your car kev?

Hey we all have opinion's and your's is great cause it's your own :smokin: My opinion of the Dynomax was that I loved the way it sounded and I liked knowing that it faired better than some other muffler's in making power. Not everyone is going to like it,, but allot of people do.:flash:
