Get a set of LT headers catless H pipe and a catback with chambered mufflers. And save a lil more for install.

boylesjake200 · August 25th, 2008, 03:44 PM

there gonna be installing too, so my price range is 500$ for all parts and install

ByPopularDemand · August 25th, 2008, 04:46 PM

Well since you want performance let me be the first to tell you...youll be sorely dissapointed from the gains an H pipe and catback will give you. on an otherwise stock car 5 or so rwhp. Its not gonna be all that loud either. Id say save and do it right with headers, or save up for gears and a tlok.

boylesjake200 · August 25th, 2008, 04:52 PM

Im not as worried about the performance as I am the sound

ByPopularDemand · August 25th, 2008, 04:58 PM

You would get better sound out of long tube headers also

Stang6899 · August 25th, 2008, 05:19 PM

You'd get an even better sound with a cam. But you can do that down the road =]

boylesjake200 · August 25th, 2008, 05:23 PM

ya i was thinking cam but thats later on, so when I call the muffler shop which is monros mufflers, what should I tell them I want? When everythings over and done including all labor and parts etc it needs to be under 500$. So whats the best I can get?

ByPopularDemand · August 25th, 2008, 05:44 PM

Best youll get will be the catback, H pipe and install unless you wait and do it right

boylesjake200 · August 25th, 2008, 05:54 PM

ya but i dont want to put 800$ into exhaust, after all im only 17 and 500$ is still a lot anyway

mannymustang · August 25th, 2008, 06:05 PM

I thought you were 16! If you want your car to sound good go to the exhaust clips and listen to supermachone I think he has the best sounding v6! Ask about his setup

boylesjake200 · August 25th, 2008, 06:09 PM

lol 16 and 3/4, thanks but it probably cost him more than 500$

mannymustang · August 25th, 2008, 06:14 PM

I think not he has h-pipe and flow 40s might be in you ur price range

boylesjake200 · August 25th, 2008, 06:17 PM

Thats what I think im gonna get, i need to call the shop tomorrow

boylesjake200 · August 26th, 2008, 04:49 PM

Ok, i called him and he wants to run a midpipe from the y pipe, to a muffler with 1 in and 2 out, if I had that muffler be a flowmaster 40 original, how would that sound?

ricerraper33 · August 26th, 2008, 04:52 PM

NITROUS FTW!!! u wont be disappointed and u can get a kit for like 400 man.
