First thing to go

So the other day i was cruzing along and it was raining outside, I couldnt see any of the road work that was being done and saw no signs telling me there was road work ahead. The next thing i know i smash a huge whole at about 40 MPH and now my exhaust is done . It broke from the rear section so i have no muffler anymore. I am wondering what is a good rear section if i wanted a nice sound nothing to crazy and loud.

You can go with Cattman or FrankenCar. From what I read they are pretty good. I personally have the Greddy Evo2, but I guess that would be to loud for you.

Cattman:

Thats what Ive been reading lately. That the last group of people had to wait awhile to get their products. and others couldnt even get anything. Better to contact Frankencar :shrug:

There is nothing on their main site about not making anymore cat-backs.

I notice their payment method through paypal is not working, i guess calling them would be a best bet to find out.

ive sent them an email asking them. if they are still in production then i am going to switch my greddy to theirs, cause theirs is much quieter than any other exhaust out there for our cars

If you are planning to keep stock headers & y-pipe than go with Cattman. If not, try looking for Frankencar, as Cattman catback might be considered too loud by some people if installed with aftermarket headers or even y-pipe.
