Hey community,
I'm thinking about upgrading the exhaust system on my 2000 Mazda Proteg ES. With the ES, you get the nice looking, but stock, chrome tip that exits from the right rear of the vehicle. It looks decent, but I want something I bit flashier and more pleasing to the ear. Any suggestions? I don't want (but I'm not sure if it's what I NEED) an entire catback system. I'm afraid that would cost too much in the moment. What would be some cheap upgrades to improve my exhaust system, in terms of sound/appearance/performance? If I were to replace solely the muffler, would that change the sound on my vehicle? I am also really interested in a dual-exit exhaust system. I have a fetish for dual-tips that are offset to the right or left. Would this require a change in my rear bumper to accommodate? Or could I somehow work it out without completely rebuking the rear? I do apologize if this post is loaded with questions, but you must forgive me, as I am new to the car modding community. thanks in advance!
