Custom intake for the 1.6L

first off, any aftermarket muffler looks like piss with the silencer in, second whats the point of even buying an aftermarket muffler if your just gonna slap the silencer on there and call it day,thirdly its not going to net you any hp increse, atleast not anything noticible,all its gonna do is be loud and annoying for no reason,

put your money to use elsewhere on the car, such as suspension, where yur actually going to notice a diffrence.

then 4 some reason he's not recommending me to get a catback or muffler.. he might tuned his car just on the engine

i was algo thinking on putting my straight pipe muffler with a resonator 4 less noise
 
Yes, he had turbo where an exhaust would be resonable, but any muffler or catback u put on is gonna have noise that sounds just like any other car with a pipe. At full throttle the catback sounds best, but they all have just about the same buzz.
 
i'll get the money and but the cold air from protephile.. that thing looks awesome
and the some NGK wires and iridium plugs
 
my car was a turbo with a 2.5inch turbo back no cats with an apexi n1 muffler, BUT the turbo silences the whole exhaust noise greatly, it acts as a muffler basically.
 
Hey gold pro i have a great idea..put on my protege my straight muffler on and buy those exhaust cutouts, so i ll decide when to be quite and when to be loud..plus is cheap!!! thats my final opinion i guess

Sounds pretty good for me
 
lol i guess you could do that, but whats the point???? is it just to be loud? like i said you will gain no hp form a muffler at all, all you will gain is annoying noise.

Now im not against exhausts, but if you dont need one, then why waist the money, when it could be spent else where on the car.
 
Haha r we tag teaming or wat?

My tornado is under my bed somewhere. Yeah u shud really buy a set of lowering springs b4 an exhaust. dont get the exhasut until u get an intake and a header.
 
i have a Sebring muffler, staright pipe 2.5'' , prolly will get 5HP but i like the noise tho, like you said would be a good idea to shut it whenever i want to :) !!
