hey guys if some one has stiaght pipes doe sit hurt the car liek imean again of lost power or torque....

misterjuice · 01-12-2007, 07:08 AM

i say, if you just have a lightly modded 305 tpi, you'll probably lose some power, aside from smelling funny

Slow Z · 01-12-2007, 11:50 PM

.....not to mention your car will sound horrible and everyone will point and laugh as you drive by. If you want a loud car make horsepower don't subtract exhaust. Being loud gets old quick and at the end of the day you still have a 305.

Kid Racer · 01-13-2007, 10:22 AM

okay well my car dont sound like **** and i have already had it out and people do liek the way it sounds.....i had put them on before i new i would loose power so know i am wating for my slp to come in...

Your camera is why that vid sounds like ass... it can't pick up the right tones. I've had the same problem.

Kid Racer · 01-13-2007, 11:50 AM

dude stop, its not a joke. you have stock manifolds, with a 2 inch pipe halfway back? and youve ran a 15.3?

Kid Racer · 01-13-2007, 11:56 AM

u mean a 15.2....and whats not a joke.....

NJSPEEDER · 01-13-2007, 12:30 PM

i hopr your exhaust is bigger than 2 inch bro. you should really jsut call up jegs and have them send out a 3inch system from any of the polular brands. something for the single 3inch cat cars will wake up the tone and a little bit of power from the car.
no need to get one of theexpensive systmes either, just grab one with 3 inch, mandrel bent tube and a muffler that prduces the tone you like. personally i recomend magnaflow for good fit and finish and a nice tone and the hooker cat back which costs a little less.

WayFast84 · 01-13-2007, 01:03 PM

Im with tim

Get a 3 inch catback. you said you liked flowmasters in one of your threads so get one. Ill sell you hedman headers,2 1/2 y pipe and a 2 1/2 dynomax catback, but its gotta be after i get my car runing and get reinspected

Yeah, here was my vid:

The camera couldn't pick it up, that's with Dynomax bulletts.

Kid, your best bet (as stated) is to pick up a system from Jeg's like NJSPEEDER said. It will sound good and loud when you want it to with none of the annoying tones.

WayFast84 · 01-13-2007, 03:42 PM

get a borla, verry expensive but you can adjust the performance/loudness

You ask why people care so much? Its because they offer their opinion to make yours, and our cars apear better, and to be faster. Im pretty sure almost all the guys on here that know their ****, will agree, a loud car doesnt make a fast car, and how much noise your car makes doesnt make it sound good, how your car will get a unique and nice sound depending on the muffler you choose. If you dont have an exaust you will just sound like an old beat up farm truck, ask me how I know.
