its already ran off a y with a single bullet dumped about 1/2 way. and its just to quite for me.

i know dumps off the headers are for race cars. while i do daily the car for now it will become a track car as soon as its paid off. i drive it on bigs and littles with no front sway bar , no ac haha its getting there

Why not just get an electric cutout? You can be loud when needed then when the cops come around you can be quite.

I would highly suggest waiting until you have the cam in before you decide it is too quiet. I have basically the same cam in my car, and with a bullet dumped off the Y it was retarded loud, especially for a DD:
