most of the ppl here have an aftermarket Y-pipe (warpspeed, cattman etc). these are 2" out of the manifold into a 2.5" collector.

then after the Y-pipe you have your catalytic converter. some have a hi-flow cat converters, some don't.

after the cat converter comes your b-pipe. just get a muffler shop to make you one. either go with 2.5" or 2.25" piping.

then comes your muffler. it all depends on what you want. i have a magnaflow muffler. deep and throaty at WOT, but nice and quiet at cruising speed.


here is my set up.
Warpspeed Y-pipe, hi-flow cat converter, 2.25" custom bent piping, and magnaflow muffler.

hope this helps.

I dont think you'll be unhappy with the REMUS what so ever. I had the twin tip exhaust on my car and absolutely loved it, in fact im looking for another since i sold my old max and got a new one. Its nothing super ricey and loud...but a real nice deep low tone....sounds awsome when you get on it. but then agian i havent heard or felt any other products with this car so i have a bias opinion. but it will def. not dissapoint you

just a note, a muffler alone won't yield much gains...just a lot of noise. most gains would come from an aftermarket y-pipe

The y-pipe is the way to go, get that with any free flowing muffler.

Y pipe will make a bit more sound, but the muffler is what you will hear the most.
I'm personally considering a flowmaster 50 series...I've heard good things about them, and I don't want the ricey sound.
Good luck
