Yeah, you would have to find one and I have no idea where there is one, I cannot find any information on it at all and no one seems to know...
But I'm thinking new cat back
How do you like your SP2? I have heard clips, sounds nice, seems like its still loud though

not sure about this exhaust but it says that it is 85db at 5000rpm! I think that is about what stock is...

Interesting though i realize that Fujitsubo makes that exhaust as well as the same thing but "evolution" style, not sure the difference but this one seems quieter...

I tested it myself and it came to about 100db which is too much, it just seemed kind of high to be so I was wondering if the measurment was off thats all...
The law permits 95db, if it is under that than I am fine. If it is not than I need to make it quieter as cops are starting to become very **** about this, and at least if I am within the legal limit there is nothing that they can do.
I already have a resonated test pipe
I was thinking about putting another resonator in the midpipe or just getting a new quieter cat-back

BTW Magnaflow #14419 3" muff works GREAT to drop sound and highway drown down . I had one welded on and I love it !
Not sure, probably dBA but no way of knowing...
Im not sure the meter I used, my weekend job is installing car stereos and they have a meter there but I have no idea what it is, I can tell you that I tested it twenty inches away with the meter 45 degrees to the side at about 5000rpm and it was ~100db sometime ~110db which leads me to believe the meter isn't that great
Im not sure how accurate the meter is, its old and worn....but still I am sure my exhaust is over 95db
I keep changing my mind about what to do, one minute I want to weld a new muffler on, the next I want to just get a different cat back
I want to do this as cheap and good as possible, but I can say that I really like how the Fujitsubo looks, and sounds

Compared to the megan , its like a mouse.
You can use a Perrin Exhaust I have the Stealth cat back for my evo 8 and I have a delete pipe(helix) I barely notice that I have an exhaust system. It's great but not too loud. My buddy(turbodemon) has the same delete pipe and the greddy Ti-C he is way louder than me.
Well, I seem to be at a loss. I have taken everyones advice, looked at all of the details of every quiet exhaust I can find and it seems like NONE of them are a full 3" except the Fujitsubo exhausts, and although nice I am not sure I want to spend that much.
The quiet cat-backs either taper, are 3 inches but the resonator is not a full 3 inches, or the whole system is less than 3 inches....
The Greddy EVO2 seemed nice until I found out that apparently it is actually heavier than the stock one....
So I am not sure what to do...
All I know is I want to get a "legally-quiet" cat-back that offers as much flow as possible, is a full 3" all the way, and soon!
Maybe I will try having a new mid-pipe made up with a really long resonator in it...

Maybe I'll try the Apexi Active Tail Silencer, anyone who has used it says its good with very minimal losses...or possibly an HFC, but then I would lose even more and no guarantee it would be quiet enough
Your not going to lose power because you have a taper in your cat-back. Your worrying about the wrong things!
greddy sp2, greddy evo2, tanabe touring
^cheap, sound great, quality sound, look good ... just installed my evo2 today ... awesome
