While I agree with the 'loss of power with bigger pipes, it's not the loss of back pressure that causes it. Scavenging yes, back pressure no. Myth busted a long time ago.on a naturally aspirated motor you will actually lose power/torque going too big due to a lack of backpressure
If you lose to a stock version of your car it's not a race car, but it might be a show car.While I agree with the 'loss of power with bigger pipes, it's not the loss of back pressure that causes it. Scavenging yes, back pressure no. Myth busted a long time ago.
Loud exhaust 'cause race car.
I already have that. sometimes wake up in the morning and i'm not sure if i've got an electrical issue, i left a fan on and it's faced a bottle, or if i've just lost my mind.Here is an age related comment on loud pipes, the tinnitus you probably will develop later in life will be very aggravating, let me describe it for you:
Imagine a high pressure air hose with a small leak. Only inside your head.
but you're young, and I'm just am old fart that will just give you advice based on my experience, if you want loud pipes pick a inexpensive muffler that is straight through, no baffles. Don't spend a bunch of money.
You're a car guy, er, gal ahhh person(?) You've lost your mindI already have that. sometimes wake up in the morning and i'm not sure if i've got an electrical issue, i left a fan on and it's faced a bottle, or if i've just lost my mind.
That's what my birth parents said when I told them I was a lesbian.You're a car guy, er, gal ahhh person(?) You've lost your mind
Stop, you're scaring me!!That's what my birth parents said when I told them I was a lesbian.
TBH, that's kinda what happens when you've had 17 cars in 15 years of driving (and never had an accident that wasn't fixable). Just keep chasing that dream.
Also, have you heard my laugh? It's comparable to a mad scientist who just finished monologuing in a hero film.

Yessir.Ok... back to not wrecking this dude's intro thread with your backstory.
Shoo!
High pitch cicadas that do not shut off or cycle in volume or pitch is closer to what is driving me nuts. It’s also like what noise an old tube and capacitor TV will make, but almost nobody has those anymore.Here is an age related comment on loud pipes, the tinnitus you probably will develop later in life will be very aggravating, let me describe it for you:

Every accident is fixable if you have enough money.TBH, that's kinda what happens when you've had 17 cars in 15 years of driving (and never had an accident that wasn't fixable).
the 'cruise spike' or your singing?I like the Thrush Super Turbo mufflers and BBK high flow X pipe. It gets attention at idle and in the parking lot, and yet when at full open throttle, it actually tames down to a whoosh compared to the drone masters it came with. I can still hear the radio and my singing over the cruising sound. I might try the 1/4 tone wave trick for a 1700 to 2000 rpm cruise spike in noise, but it is fun to tear around town in as is.
The resonator pipe is for the car’s increased volume in the rpm range. 1/4 tone music is not allowed in my car. (Except for an occasional blues note or bent note.)the 'cruise spike' or your singing?
