I just got my turbo-back installed and it's kind of louder than I hoped. I'm looking to do one of the two below to quiet down the noise.
Options:
A) Remove the 3" DP and put the stock DP back on.
B) Put the silencer on the Greddy Ti-C Exhaust.
Questions:
1) Which option would retain more power?
2) Which option would retain more low-end torque?
3) Which option would be more fuel efficient?

 

I have gone from a stock dp to a 3" dp and don't really hear a diff. also putting a silenter on the ti would loose too much power. how about thinking about another exhaust and keep the dp?

 

hmm... i just bought the Greddy Ti-C exhaust, too... any more opinions?... I thought the DP does make your car a lot louder?

Wouldn't the Greddy Ti-C exhaust with a silencer still make more power than the stock exhaust?

 

I don't see how.... You're just going from one pipe to a bigger pipe. There's nothing in the stock downpipe that really acts to quiet anything down. Now, changing the intermediate pipe which has two resonators in it to a straight pipe with no resonators, I can see that being quite a bit louder.

 

wanna trade exhausts?

 

Ok...so now I'm wondering. Which will give more power? stock exhaust or Greddy Ti-C with a silencer?

 

stock would be better than a silencer. put a resonator or two on your exhaust if it doesnt have any

 

Don't remove the DP and don't run with the silencer on... both are big hits to performance.

Your best bet without buying anything new is to put the stock catback on..
