Just got to install an greddy evo catback on my car and it is really soft. Deep but soft. I like the look of it but how can i make it louder? It has two resonators on the mid pipe, if i remove those will it work the same.
Dam its gonna suck if i have to get another exhaust.

You could knock em out, and It would work the same, but might sound ****ty, kinda clanky and such (marbles). You should put a sound clip of it on here and I might snag it off of you if you wish to purchase another one. Jamie is looking for a not too loud, but deep exhaust for her rex, let me know. ~ok~

if you want a deep sound go pick up a g200. out of the 8 or so cbe I have had so far that is the deepest.I just sold mine and unsure whats my next cbe.

no drone on my car at all. I had it mated up to a invidia v2 catless dp too.
It was loud though lol.
I'll probly end up going back with cobb that was my fav so far.

ok so today i had my wife drive the car so i could hear what it sounded like on the outside. had a nice rumble to it but could do with a little more volume. i have decided to remove one of the two resonators and will post b4 and after sound clips.

Also if you want it to last a long time make sure you take some light sand paper and paint all the welds on the pipes. My Greddy Evo rotted out at every weld.

im picking up another catback 2morrow. Gonna see if the midpipe from that would work on the greddy axleback section. Hopefully its a bit louder that way. Dont wanna start hacking up a perfectly good exhaust.
But yah the greddy is very soft.

just finished putting on an ebay special catback, and all i can say is holy drone.
Im gonna find someone to extend the ebay special so my greddy axleback will fit on it.

how are the cops and the inspection in nh on the loud and huge canned cbe.
I always got pulled over for my old helix tbe in my old wrx. but that was in mass.
I'm moving to nh soon so gotta decide wich exhuast I can get away with.

i havent had any issues with my exhausts or anything like that. I know from experience they are ****in anal bout tints on the front windows. i think the NH cops are not to bad. touch wood.
