Loudest exhaust set up out there?

roplusbee · 03-19-2014, 03:07 PM

Man, those make my setup sound relatively quiet. Until the wastegates open that is........

Lol no but I have in a jeep wrangle on the highway because of wind noise. If you listen at start up after a second it's very quite. Only WOT is it loud. It's pretty tame just normal DD around town. The cars gutted anyways so you hear everything! On the highway at 70mph with no real exhaust noise its like 90 db I think just from wind, rocks, motor, and tires.

Depends on the track. My bike was 106 db which was the limit per rules at 4 feet from the tip at half throttle at a 45* angle. At WOT at 16,000rpm I'm sure it was pushing 140+ and never flagged at mid ohio, Nelson's ledges, VIR, beaver run, or summit point.

Hell the ctsv's at mid Ohio during the Pirelli challenge makes your ears bleed!

Just run open dump straight from the cats.

If not then have a muffler shop custom fab a 3" pipe straight from the cats to the rear of the car.

GTHaus is the loudest.
Fast intention is the best bang for your buck. no lie.

I think something a 1/3rd the cost would be the best bang for the buck.

Thanks for the input guys I really appreciate it. Any thoughts on a straight pipe set up?

That's just too loud. There was a member that did something similar and immediately took it off because it was just obnoxious.

I have AAM and I love them. They are loud and people will notice (also from miles away).

hey thats me!
yes GTHaus is loud but the tone is proper. theres loud and then theres obnoxious. if you have lots of drone its bad. the GTHaus is proper. Put it this way, i gutted my trunk so i could hear it more. You cant have a conversation at all but who cares, im here to drive. Anything less than 15 volume on the radio is also completely drowned out :P

Did someone say loud exhaust?

This is with stock cats

luigi90210 · 03-20-2014, 05:12 AM

straight pipe, or open headers, dont get much louder then that really

here is my setup though, its loud but not obnoxious, mods in my sig

I doubt changing the mid pipe will change the loudness very much.

I didn't say you had to get rid of your cats.
Headers do not eliminate your cats necessarily, neither does a mid-pipe.

And yes adding the mid-pipe to the short tails will make it significantly louder. I have heard with my own two ears

Any headers worth doing get rid of the cats. Shorty headers on this car are a waste of money and time. It's long tubes or nothing, and long tubes get rid of the cats, hence his comment.

Alrighty, semantics

Loudest exhaust with stock cats..shorty headers, mid-pipe, short tails

OP asked about the loudest setup. Not what makes more or less power.
