Anybody have an audio clip of rb catback and obx header? Just curious how it sounds I skimmed through but couldn't find anything and don't feel like reading 12 pages in detail. I'm hoping for a non loud non drone good sound

i got an exhaust im going to go out and take a pic of, i cant find it on any of the sites and wanted to see if anyone knows what the hell it is lol

 

[INeedMoarLow]

is this just a welded together mix of things or a kit i cant find online?

maybe custom? someone got piping and a muffler and did it themselves or had a shop do it probably. however stainless steel doesnt rust, aluminized coating does however, and it looks like that muffler is rusted. i thought magnaflow made all stainless s*** and not aluminized?

 

[mx-p5]

looks like someone used the magnaflow resonator instead of thew hole exhaust

 

[INeedMoarLow]

yea i figured the tip wasnt original, its like 6" lol and completely rusted on the inside.... but sounds amazing so i thought id ask

 

[mx-p5]

is it straight pipes back from the cat?

 

[INeedMoarLow]

as far as i can tell, i have yet to get it up in the air and although not lowered(yet) im too fat to fit underneath lol

 

[INeedMoarLow]

i went out and squeezed under as much as i could, it looks stock from the headers through the cat and then its straight pipe(looks like 2-2.5") all the way through the muffler(thing)

 

[mx-p5]

like zis?
Prob a custom jobber

If it sounds good, rock it!! lol

 

[INeedMoarLow]

thats my thought, it has a good sound and im having no problems with it i think lol. my check engine light is on and the code is reading that bank 1 is running lean would that straight piped exhaust have anything to do with that?

 

[mx-p5]

if your 02 sensors are plugged in and good, exhaust shouldn't cause any CEL's

stock header/precat?

 

[INeedMoarLow]

nope, aftermarket and no precat

 

[INeedMoarLow]

i take that back on the precat im just blind lol

 

[mx-p5]

wait, you have an aftermarket header?

Do you have both 02 sensors installed?

and the pre-cat is partof the stock header. There is another cat down under the car

 

[INeedMoarLow]

well then apparently im just dumb and looked at the second o2. there is one placed in one of the pipes of the header and something at the spot where all 4 pipes come together but it seems bigger, is that the second o2?

 

[mx-p5]

This is the stock exhaust manifold and pre-cat

there should be another cat where the J-pipe points back and connnects to the rest of the exhaust
