Do you guys think my car would sound good if I went from my side pipes to some turndowns? In thinking like 2 ft of pipe after the cats, then dump it. I know it will be obnoxiously loud, which is a good thing in my book. Right now my car has a "popping" you can hear when I floor it. If I were to go with dumped straight pipes, it would sound more umm, "garbled" I guess is the word.

Anyone have a clip of a GT with dumped straight pipes?


Heres a little clip of my current side pipes. Obnoxiously loud, like I like them.

its all stock up to where the mufflers used to be. I dont really want mufflers. For some reason I just love it being loud. Plus I can get these turndowns for next to nothing and ill keep my side pipes incase I ever want to change them out.

And also another thing about the side pipes is that they scrape pretty bad when I take a 45* turn at 50 MPH. lol

Which I shouldnt have done but wanted to see if I could. I think I got it up on 3 wheels.
