Howdy folks!

Here is a video of my car after deleting both the resonator and the second cat. It is still emissions legal, so no crying about me killing the environment.... I can definitely say that with all the new sound deadening in the newer cars, there is zero drone inside the car. At idle, it sounds like a factory JCW, but when you open it up, it is a bit loud, but only outside of the car. Inside, things are serene. I had a buddy and mine do a few drive bys, and goodness, it sounds fantastic. I am hoping to get some fly by and interior videos soon. But, in the meantime, enjoy!!

Nice, sounds better in person I bet. Now put a straight through muffler on there. That will wake the neighbors lol.

 

Oh yea. Lol. A catless downpipe would do the same thing...

 

Sounds good! Can you give some more details on what exactly you did? and what all is involved?

Thanks.

 

It was rather simple. I cut out the section of exhaust that included the resonator and second cat, then welded in a 2.5 section of pipe to replace it. The newer cars have a larger diameter pipe than the older ones. I found this out quickly. Haha. On my old car, the pipe size was around 2.16", so I figured the new ones would be the same. When I went to replace the pipe with 2.5" (which is what I did on my old one..), the pipes were the same size. SO, the new cars have 2.5" exhaust piping...

 

Sounds good now get those drive bys or mount that cam to the rear and drive it.

 

Those shall come soon enough. I am off all week, and will be at the track on Saturday here in New Mexico. I will try and get some up and going here eventually....
