Default New Exhaust, well kinda!!!

Ok so today I was bored and wanted to change the sound of the TA...

Went out, removed the 3 16mm bolts from the right tail pipe, removed the "restriction" plate and bam. Much louder, Borla Adjustable is sahweet! Sounds deep and mean on a cruise , but a little raspy up top...anyways..its loud but I like it. Video clips tomorrow!

huh? Repaired it? I just took out the plate where you adjust it and made it louder, The plate I had in was one with a real small hole. This is with no plate.

Nice neighborhood, where is that?

Sounds mean, a little loud and raspy for my taste, but still pretty badass.

Out in BFE in NC... lol...The camera actually makes it a bit more raspy but it is kinda up top in higher RPMS ... but to me the cruising around town with the deep growl makes up for it...I hardly rip on my car anyways...usually break stuff lol

I can imagine you sitting there thinking "Why the hell did I spend 900$ on my cat-back again? ... hmm... OH YEAH!"

And here we are.


Car sounds good man, I've got a 383 LT1 with the same all the way open exhaust it sounds... excessive.
