WS Y-Pipe+Megan straight pipe+QTP cutout= BWAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!

So I just installed my ws y-pipe on my I30,had straight pipe and qtp already and it sounded beastly, now with y-pipe its a beacon for cops!! if I put my converter back on should that tone it down a lil or should I relocate exh cutout to rear of car?? otherwise I just drive with cutout closed wich is a waste

consensus???

Resonator will be after his cutout it seems...that will do no good.


OP, what did you expect? Really? I'd just keep it closed until you're in the mood to really get on it and have some fun.

or

Relocate your existing cutout after a big resonator.

I will try to post some vids!! Any specific resonators to go with!!

I did expect it to get louder but now its just a lil above my sound threshold cuz sometimes I do stomp on it randomly and the five second delay on the cutout I would look stupid pausing before I stomp lol!! I have the wireless keychain opener, might go to toggle!!

in that case relocate and get a big Magnaflow resonator. They make some big ones that can tone it down

It's like throwing a rock at a glass window and not expecting it to break.

Maybe some haters but also answers,

Put a resonator on there, and don't even expect a cut out to be anything near quiet/tolerable.

yep only NC, where our cars are modded better then yours with your megan straight pipe plus a "cutout".

You asked a stupid question about a cut out. When your driving around on the street close it, wtf? When your not open it. Get an electric one at that stop being a cheap azz and the VQ30 sounds SH1TTY with unmuffled. You wanna ask me how i know?
