how to have a loud idle?
 
as you guys know, our cars are very quiet at idle (even with an aftermarket exhaust) is there anything to make it loud at idle? i have a meisterschaft catback exhaust by the way, its loud above 3k but silent below that. :shakes head:

It gets old. It really does. I have owned cars that rattled every window within 50 feet of them at idle. It really does get old.

If you must, though...just run dumps. Have them plumbed in right after the headers. That way you can be absurdly obnoxious.

yeah im just talking about the idle when the car is sitting, the sound is so low, that it feels like the car is off.

after i added the test pipes into my car, my idle was significantly louder. before that it was completely quiet.

thanks for the info, i wish the idle stayed as loud when starting on a cold startup

I hate to be age-ist, but I am guessing OP is young, and this is their first "fast" car. Call me out if I'm wrong.

It is a cool idea when you're a teenager in your first sporty car. More power to OP if they continue to enjoy it, but my thoughts are they will sell whatever setup they have pretty soon and not do it again. That's what I did, anyway.

Idle is quite because the idle rpm is on 600 compared to those super car where its settle around 1k RPM

Test pipes are going to give you the most added volume @ idle, imo. My ART pipes definitely made the car idle louder. It's not anything like an iron block mustang 5.0 or something like that, but it is much easier to hear.

run test pipes, that'll work best

yeah this might be the cause, anyway to make our rpms a little higher by a computer management system?

to others im not a teenager, i just want a nice idle sound.
