just drive around with an open cutout for a while then close it and they'll forget they even thought you were loud before

If you have a magnaflow catback on it just put a dynomax bullet muffler in the I-pipe part#24222.

Open headers with turndowns should solve the problem. Or at least make the current problem they have with the volume seem irrelevant!

To the OP, I think you should have a talk with the managment, take a pre-emptive strike against the old farts. Get on the managments side, then let the whine all they want. If you take it easy when you're around them, their ****'n'moaning will subside after a while.

My neighbors hate my car but what can they say when I'm the only dad around that has an air compressor to pump all the kids bike tires up, plus I change tubes for them and usually whatever else needs fixing. They let me slide for the most part but when do complain it is always to the wife. Sometimes I'd rather they call the cops,lol.

I agree that hooker catback are cheap but mine isn't as quiet as I thought it would be. Compared to when I first installed it now mine sounds like a loudmouth exhaust...which is ok but gets a bit annoying. My plan was to add a moroso spiral flow in place of the cat.

Damn some of you are ******, it's called common courtesy, nobody wants to be woken up just because you want your car to be loud as ****. Just keep in mind if you **** them off bad enough your car will likely get damaged in some manner and you won't have a clue as to who it was. That being said, my best combo in the past was longtubes, no cats, stock ws6 muffler, and an electric cutout. Cutout CLOSED when neighbors are trying to sleep.
