exhaust



I am looking at gettting an exhaust system for my 03 and I dont want that loud bumble bee sound. I have heard that if i go with a titanium/carbon fiber it will have a deeper sound is this true??
I am looking at the HKS cat back

Bumblebee noise is not a direct cause of the exhaust type moreso than it is the muffler and the existing mods that you have.

Do a search though, bro. This has been asked about a million times.

to be honest, searches suck, and it its really hard to find what you want in a reasnable amount of time. but i am not a pro at it, so maybe thats why i take a long time.

I'll throw him a bone. 2.25 and a world sport and it's deep. Doesnt' rattle or gasp or sound like it's taxing itself when cruising. Although, unless the muffler is made of dynomat, it's not gonna seriously affect the sound that comes out of it. Bends, pipe diameter, and muffler design will influence it more than anything.
