eBay Exhaust w/ Muffler Delete (Vid)

So basically I got tired of the rice-a-roni fart can on my ride so we cut that **** off and just added a 2.5" pipe to elongate the exhaust. The exhaust is still loud, but in my opinion it sounds a bit more aggressive and drones a lot less than the fart can.

Setup:
Short Ram Intake
Budget Y-Pipe
Stock Cat
2.5" eBay Exhaust now w/ Muffler Delete

This won't be my final setup as I still have the stock muffler, and it will go on soon with a nice tip

Anyway here's the clip (of course it sounds much better in person, not as raspy as the video makes it seem)

Sounds good, but the loudness would get tiresome, at least for me...Wouldn't an electric cut out be better, so you can get loud just when you need to?

That's a loud racket for my ears on a long trip and it doesn't sound as smooth...IMO. Just slight sputtering...

sometimes its fun to drive loud cars but sometimes it gets extremely annoying like when i drove my brothers spec-v for 2 weeks in the beginning i kept revving it for fun and then it sounded so annoying and i just wanted some peace and quiet lol and at night people can get annoyed

Yeah this setup is just for ****s and giggles, not going to keep running it. But as a side note, it sounds much better when driving, revving at a standstill doesn't do it justice.

Like I said I still have the stock muffler so that will go on with a nice tip soon.

Here's a quick vid of how the car sounds while driving. Notice the rally-car backfiring right before the entrance

Also don't mind looking into the sky while I'm on it, the camera couldn't handle the power

Get a 5th gen muffler if you can.
Flows better than the 4th.

That's a crazy sounding VQ you have there.

Sounds like a beater that's lost it's muffler.

Why do people do these stupid things.

Lmfao, like I said I wanted to cut the fart can off, and just elongated the exhaust for the time being until I put the stock one back on.

Nothing wrong with experimenting

Go buy a high flow muffler it will give it a deeper not so raspy sound and quiet it down from a "rice" sound to "0o0oh thats nice" sound
