Default Have a problem...

My neighbors have been complaining to the cops my car is too loud, but I have magnaflow which to me is a pretty quite cat back. I've only heard corsa in person once and it was a long time ago. It seemed quite compared to my camaro because my camaro had TD dumped, but is corsa quiter than my magnaflow on my TA? Oh, and btw, I think the real bitching comes from my open cut out, but I'm allready getting a motor for it, but I like corsa's look and sound from the sound clips. I'm just curious as to whether or not it is quiter. Thanks for your help.

If you need quiet go Hooker, if you need REAL quiet go slp dual/dual. Magnaflow is pretty quiet also. I find it hard to believe they actually have a problem with the sound of the magnaflow, sounds like a personal/jealousy thing to me.

Well, if you are getting heat for a loud car and have an open cutout, I think you found your problem.

I know that, but I was just curious as to whether corsa was louder or not.

Both should be plenty quiet with your cutout closed.

Corsa will be louder than Magnaflow.

Like you said, it's likely the cutout that's causing the issues. Magnaflow is plenty quiet.

Default to noisy?

look at my sig, my upstairs neighboor has a true dual cobra, and my side neighboor has a harley and a uncorked Dodge Ram, no complaints here from anybody, either keep it quiet in the hood or tell ur neighboors to F-OFF and get a life or tell them to *** off and leave u alone untill u break the law or hurt someone, thats why I hate people, except for u fine folk on this website, if u don't like my exhaust **** off or move, Cuz i'm bangin the office lady, guess who's side she's on?
