May I ask why? I remember when I took out all four cats on the black 6.0 and installed a tubi, our late friend Peter2 told me that I was stupid for doing so and that the car is more enjoyable with the factory exhaust system. 3 years later, I have to agree with him!

Throttle response is 10x better and the sound! That's why! :)

 

The extra power was nice too (and saving 120lbs.!)

I had straight pipe set up on my car, boy am I glad that is over with.

 

Yours actually sounds better than the set up I had with straight pipes. My car sounded like a broken down lawn mower.

:lol2:

 

You have to know how to tune the pipes; that's the genius of the guy who built mine.

It's now at 138db, possibly 140 once it breaks in. It's SO much louder than what you heard.

 

Holy shit. :headbang:

Dave, i don't remember what mods you've done to the car, but would this set up cause you to trip a CEL?

 

I went through this with boats. At least for me the noise gets old REAL FAST.

 

 

AGREED 100% I can't take things loud anymore, i must be getting old. I value my hearing and I'd rather enjoy them than not hear what is going on.

 

I'm even having a hard time finding aftermarket exhaust that I like that isn't loud or specifically a "drone" type system.

THATS TOO LOUD..LOL i've never said that before..but holy shittttttttttttt my speakers wasnt even on full blast when i started the vid (i know i don't have to turn it up since its your car) and oh myyyyyyyyyy...although the recording is not very good..that pretty much hurt my ears!!!!!

 

 

do another video with the video camera placed in a car about 10blocks away..and you revving it while the car slowly drives to where your car is actually at..that'll show how loud the car is..haha

Loud, Wiggs VERY loud..... somethings got to give if you want to avoid having to use a hearing aid before you reach 40. I would suggest postponing the driving music playlist you are working on.

 

I recently put mufflers on my G-TT, which was nearly as loud, my neighbors seem to be nicer now, and even wave at me when I pass by. :icon_mrgreen:
