Alright, I just got my headers on tonight. Running completely cat-less. 4-1 stainless into 2.4" stainless all the way back. Problem..It's loud as all hell..Even with my silencer..still too loud..Are there any mufflers out there that will dampen this..WOT I'm not worried about..up to 4-5k of decent rumble will work for me..Moreover, any recommendations on bigger reasonators..
Who's running catless?

well i have one now it came with the downpipe jamie gave me. i was catless when i was N/A and let me tell you it was loud as hell, but not too bad after i got used to it. when i put my hks silencer in there it quieted quite a bit but i didnt like the look of the silencer so i took it out.
but now im probably even louder. open dump, and 2.5" turbo back with only one cat and no resonater.

you guys are turbo..its completely different. my car is absurdly loud without cats..it's just 4-1 header back via 2.4"..even with the silencer...I think i'll put my rear cat back on tomorrow for a while, while i figure out a new approach..

Put a glasspack on there. It should quiet it down a bit without hurting flow too much. It should at least get rid of the raspiness...

Check with twilight for the resonator he's running. If I'm not mistaken, I remember a post where he said he was using a Magnaflow resonator, *I think*, but I'm not 100% sure. When I had my header on and the JIC catback, it was ok around town but horrible on the highway, and that was still running through the stock cat in between them. Hell, I used to carry a pair of adjustable pliers and a hex key to put the silencer in if I was on the highway for an unexpectedly long period of time.SpicyMchaggis said:

I will post here when I can save up the scrills to actually mod the engine and such. As it is I am just upgrading various suspension parts of the car until I and get a better job and start doing some real power mods.SpicyMchaggis said:
the first thing you'll notice..there are no real power mods..just things to satisfy you until we all break down and buy a turbo.

I know I know... But I would like to do the cams and header/exhaust thing for a while first. I just can't bring myself to spend the money on a turbo. But I have had the HiBoost broschure in my console for almost a year now...
yeah, i'd love to get the hi-boost system with the FMIC..who knows..

Repeat after me - you will not be assimilated
You all speak blasphemy here! You must stay N/A!!
haha, yeah, I have thought about turbo/SC too. But I really want to try to do my car differently. The only problem is, this route is gonna cost a freakin' fortune!
turbo = lots of money up front
N/A = lots more money stretched out over years
Thats ok, we'll see how it goes.
