Exhaust question

I just put on my Tsudo N-1 Catback and my Tuning Pros Test Pipe, I love the way that it sounds but I find it to be a litlle to quiet, I don't want it to sound rice, but I want it to be LOUD, SUPER LOUD, but yet still retain that good sound quality that I have, maybe I should change the tip? I was just wondering what some of your guys suggestions would be to do to make it louder but stay good sounding. Thanks.

My magnaflow was just that...loud. Well it sounded good untill I got headers on then thats when it got so loud. I now have traded back to a stock muffler.

Changing the tips won't alter the sound to where it's noticeable.

Please resize your sig pic BTW. The limit is 550 x 325 pixels.

Thanks.

I belive those tsudo mufflers have a silencer in the tip, take it out and see how you like it. Personally Id change the tip just because it looks like it belongs on a something a maxima is not. And get headers like everyone else is saying if you want it even louder.

There really isnt a such thing as really loud and good sounding... even v8's w/ open pipes sound like crap

Just take the muffler off altogether. It'll be loud then, I promise you. Otherwise, get headers, get a cutout, remove the b-pipe, etc etc etc...

No muffler would certainly be a visual improvement over the N-1. fartcans just look silly on maximas IMO.

I meant the whole muffler, like maybe putting a Cattman or a HKS, or Frankencar or something like that, I can't affor headers right now so that is out of the question, and Stardust what do you mean how old the op is?

I think he's trying to guess your age. Maybe we could make this thread interresting by having everyone guess and you tell us next week.

I'm with Stardust, 18 or under.

I have already looked on that thread and there wasn't people with just the muffler on theirs, but I will try looking through there again, and by the way I am 16 years old and if you have a problem with it you can shove it just joking but I am really 16 though, I guess for now I will just leave it the way that it is until I save up enough for headers.
