ive heard its really badly loud. But thas only what ive heard
It's frikken loud, it sounds like a bumblebee gettin it's nuts squeezed when ya throttle it, and the drone will drive ya absolutely batshit. But like UnholyTib said Put a magnaflo where the bubble is (that would be the Cat) and it becomes a whole new animal and sounds so nice, that's what I did also :3_chubby:

yeah itll be loud... headers and exhaust with no cat is loud. I have heard SSA combo is the loudest with no cat but who knows. Do as another member said, put the exhaust on there and drive for like a week or 2 and if it sucks go get the hi flow cat. At first i hated mine but it grew quickly on me

If I were you, I would put the whole system on. If you like the sound...there you go, and if you dont like the sound, get a highflow cat (magnaflow etc.) and take it to an exhaust shop and get them to cut off the race cat and weld/bolt (they would have to make flanges) on the new cat. Shouldnt be more the 50bucks to have them swap them out. It would be sorta like a test pipe (cutting off something IE the muffler/cat/resonater etc.) and replacing it with a solid pipe (except your using a cat instead). Hope that explains it alittle better for ya.

In that case...I have no clue. I have herd that the ssa is very raspy but im not sure. I was thinking about getting an ssa for mine but I think im going to stick to Borla. The CAI will sound good though (I have Injen CAI).
