I see that semtex you like most Ricers blow things out of proportion also. are you one of those that when you lose to someone you make up thousands of excuses? i mean really why bring up designing a car. use some common sense at-least i know its hard for someone like you to accept the fact that you dont have to pay thousands of dollars to make some more power. your still the epitomy of Ricer. someone who has a bad attitude and is pessimistic towards others because you refuse to accept others opinions and only accept your own. and your posts have proven that.

:argue:Can you guys stop now and get back on topic? :tiphat:

Reading comprehension really isn't your strong point, is it?

Yeah, I can't accept anyone else's opinion. You got me on that one. :rolleyes:

Aw..where's the fun in that? :rofl2:

Wow, did someone piss in your Cheerios this morning, geez.

What are we talking about anyway?

:facepalm:

Actually it is the ricer mentality to pay as little as possible to nothing to create a modification, the use of payment is meant to get a better, higher quality, more engineered designed product.

Okay, in all seriousness, and in an attempt to restore some civility to this discussion . . . I never stated that you can't make power unless you pay thousands of dollars or buy parts from a company or whatever. I just don't think this particular mod will yield gains is all. As I've already stated previously in this thread, I could be wrong. But nobody has done a before/after dyno on this as far as I know, so we don't know either way at this point. If someone does a dyno and proves that there are gains to be made, I will gladly eat a big slice of humble pie and revise my opinion that this is rice. And again, even if it doesn't yield any gains, to each his/her own. I've already acknowledged that doing something for the sole purpose of improving an aesthetic element, like sound, is perfectly legit.

:iagree:

Well first off, took my muffler off and I thought my car sounded great. I will probably have my buddy fab up some pipes and tips for me soon. I don't see spending the money on the exhaust until I'm ready to do the twin turbo kit I have planned. I do think this "mod" of removing your muffler is meant more to change the sound of your vehichle rather than to gain any substantial amount of hp or torque. However, and correct me if I'm wrong, any increase in air flow should yeild some sort of performance gain. I mean a cat back you buy from a manufacturer is suppose to give you a power gain. Well this is more or less a cat back exhaust with the stock piping. You are still increasing the airflow by deleting the muffler so, even if by a small amount, you should gain power as well, of coarse, drop weight. Just my two cents. Either way I think it sounds great!

Can anybody fab me up some pipes.. I live in the middle of freaking nowhere and I would love to have some pipes. I'm saving up money for college and this would be a nice way to change the soft note of the stock exhaust without spending much.

where in texas are you?
