And when people answer you, you decide to mix your arrogance with your ignorance to form a safety net to protect your bruised ego. The only possible reason why you want to hinder the potential gains from your exhaust to be heard is so when you run around town all the v8's can say "damn, that car is brutally loud he must be fast." but in all reality (and trust me I hang out with a lot of muscle heads) they are thinking how awesome it will be to pull up next to you and let you get the jump, then right before you hit 45 they'll blow right by you and than mock you with the "victory signal." You are creating a ricer out of a beautiful machine just so you may have the appearance of speed. Well I'll be brutally honest as I like to be and tell you now that the LED shift know, foot well glow, 200lbs system, and exhaust are all things the cavaliers and sunfires have been doing before you. Whether or not you still have these atrocities on your car is irrelevant because you keep these atrocities alive and well on your car domain profile. The other big clue to your rice hood is the fact the only performance mod you have listed is your SRI... Why spend time and money improving the show value of a car other than improving the performance of a car???

Furthermore your disrespect to your neighbors and fellow forum members is rather shocking. 2 citations and your father hasn't slapped you up side your head? If I came home bumping my car enough to make neighbors call the cops he would have put his foot through the subs. You have a lot of growing up to do young man. Maybe if you weren't so inconsiderate more people would be more considerate to offer advise. And saying things such as "this makes me want to be more inconsiderate," just proves how much of a child you really are. Grow up and buy your own car and maybe you'll be able to respect it than.

This thread is a big
Unless your an arrogant ricer than a major
But than again the majority of the people on this forum appreciate clean, nice sounding cars so

Go buy an autozone muffler. Get you that annoyingly loud sound and the performance your looking for.
i never said i wanted loud and annoying! why does everyone think this! i said i wanted loud and deep, not loud and rice. apparently, loud also means rice. if so, then you are insulting every single car with decently loud exhaust. please please please go back and read what all ive said. also, the only performance mod i HAD is an SRI because i was saving all my money for the turbo. if i had put the money into other stuff, i would most likely have everypreformance upgrade available, believe me. i am no longer trying to improve the show of my car before the performance. thats why i dont spend money on washing my cars and fixing all the dents and scratches in it. id rather look like **** and be fast, then be slow and only look fast.

also, i dont live with my father. i have seen him twice in 19 years seeing as hes lived overseas my entire life. i grew up with my grandmother. anyways, she didnt mind so much but my mom did and got very angry at those two tickets. and even my grandma says that our neighbors should mind their own business instead of calling the cops. i dont call the cops when their kids hit my car with ***** and other various play things and set my alarm off and wake me up at 8 am on a saturday. and you shouldnt be worrying about my personal life and things like sound violations and such. just answer my damn question and be done with it. ive already said all this many times, so like i said, go back and read everything

Lol wow I think all the mad people come to this thread. Just an observation

So anyway I stopped reading after like the 4th page. Have you decided on an exhaust yet or still looking around? Sounds interesting to do.

Loud and deep is virtually impossible on a small, 4-banger like yours. You don't drive a Corvette or a Porsche, you'll have to accept the fact that if you open the exhaust up, it sounds "ricey".
I don't understand this, people have given you advice on exactly what mufflers to buy but you apparently don't care and just want to continue asking the question. Moreover, it's somewhat silly to take this "I don't give a crap" attitude. You'll start to care after people report you to the police and they start giving you fix it tickets.

First ticket won't be terrible... The average noise violation. The second will depend on the officer... The third will be an officer getting down and checking for a cat. If you don't have one than you have broken an emissions law and will be forced to put a cat on and go to the DMV for a smog test as well as a hefty ticket. The officers aren't going to be very lenient since you already have had two other sound citations. Than the "I don't care" attitude is going to turn into I can't pay these fines.

Deepest and most aggressive sounding mufflers will be a toss up between Greddy and HKS. They won't be ricearoni loud but you'll at least sound mean and get more respect from fellow tuners that don't like to hear BRRRAAAAAAAANNNNNNNGGGGGHHHHH!

Way to go. Her husband is fighting in a war to protect your right to do what you want, show some respect.

Your question holds no merit, so why would people answer it if your attitude sucks?

Because your displaying the typical lowlife douche syndrome. **** everyone esle I do what I want when I want. It doesn't work like that. You need to give respect in order to get it.

There are only 2 things that can happen here, either keep your car civil and quiet OR make it loud and annoying. It is a stupid little 4 cyl. No 4 cyl motor sounds good or anything like a v8.

Well played.

People who put loud, stupid mufflers on there car are the same type who drive 110 on the freeway racing the home boy crew with a hatch civic who thinks they are Mario Anderetti weaving in and out of traffic putting all the other people on the road in danger. Tell me I am wrong?

You are the same person if you did cause an accident you would run away and hope grand mama would rescue you. Your father being not in your life is completely obvious with your gimmie an answer attitude. if you want something bad enough, you go and buy it. If it is not what you want, take it off, sell it to the closest Geo Metro owner and by the next muffler that is louder, don't expect people to just spoon feed you.

besides, I see you do not want to buy any expensive product, so Ebay is you friend. Support China and all the craptastic product you can find there

Or if they feel like being really mean, they impound your car.
Greddy is pretty loud and deep (had one on my Lancer) but it still has a bit of that classic "ricey" sound.

I wish I could find a more quiet exhaust to keep the Evo quiet. I have a HFC, 2 resonators and a muffler. I am going to be putting in a bigger one to try and quiet it down even more!

people havent given advice on what mufflers to buy except a couple people and I have acknowledged them and gave them my thanks. everyone else has been telling me this whole thing is stupid. and i have already had neighbors complain and the cops called on me for noise a couple times. they didnt do anything.

that doesnt give her the right to tell other people to follow her rules i do respect our military and what they do for us, although i do not like that we are even in a war, but thats a different story for a different place and time.

i would not run to my grandma, i would have to take the money out of my savings and pay for anything needed paying for. also, after the next accident im in, if any, my mom is taking my car away from me. i want to buy something that I would like, so i asked the question to see what people think would work for me. i never said i wanted to waste money by buying muffler after muffler and testing them, or else I would do that. and excuse me for being a full time college student with a passion for my car and very little money.

You don't respect anyone but yourself, it is really sad.

You said yourself you want to drive by her house and wake her up. Don't you think she is having a hard enough time coping with her husband overseas?

Look at you're thread title "Absolute loudest muffler?"

It is a disgrace to the import community.

you are a disgrace to cars in general if you think "loud" automatically means ricey. i know shes having a hard time with her husband gone and all and im sorry for that, but that still doesnt give her the right to boss other people around.

No, he's not. Loud for a 4-banger is ricey, especially when you want the "absolute loudest muffler possible" so people will notice you. This isn't about power gains, this about being an attention ***** aka. a ricer, nothing more. Loud is cool if you can back it up. When you're louder than the Evo that just wiped the floor with you, you're a ricer.
She's not bossing you around, she's stating that she doesn't like people like you who have the "I don't give a **** about other people" attitude, and I fully agree. It's this attitude that gives us tuners a bad name and it's this attitude that pisses people off.

i hear evos and subarus all the time that do not sound ricey. do not tell me all 4-bangers are ricey. if you read my first post, you will see that my friend has a WRX that sounds incredibly amazing. and i hate when people tell me what to do, youre right. now if people would be kind and say "hey it might be better if..." then maybe i would graciously listen. instead, people are saying "you are a dumb mother ****er, you cant do that, it'll sound like ****, do this instead you piece of ****..." so i ignore them. i have said time and time again, all i want is a simple answer to my question, not lecture after lecture on exhaust theory. so i assume if you asked a question about something and i gave my opinion which was completely different than yours, you would just go ahead and do what i say? im not like that. i just want an answer to my initial question!! thats what this whole thread is about!

Subarus have a boxer motor, it's a different design and thus a different sound. I've heard plenty of loud Evos that sound ricey as hell, the difference is they usually have 400+ HP, not 200 HP.

There is a difference between what will make you sound the best and what will make you the the loudest.

BTW, it's called the "shift" key, most keyboards come equipped with two, they say "shift" and have little arrows like this ^.
