MaxPrime

Looks great man! I just ordered my magnaflows last week and they will be at my doorstep very soon! I also ordered an intake seperately and I am going to install them together. My next goal is to buy a grill and those led tail lights. I will post pics of my progress up asap!

do you have a video on the exhaust sound

MaxPrime

I was thinking about getting CAI too but i dont know if is worth it for me , since all i want is looks but i might put some thoughts into it.

MaxPrime

No i dont but to let you know if you into loud stuff you dont want to just get the Mufflers you want y pipes and other stuff , but if you into stock noise then you get the mufflers only and it sound better than stock deep tone trust sounds really good i love it.

hey looks great, how much are the mufflers and where did u get it from.
i have ebay catback and i dont like it. the cabin noise is too loud at low rpm.

MaxPrime

Well i got them from a member here but he had it cause he crash his car so he had no need for them and the same for the lights, you can get them here for 170 free ship , i try to offer those ebay sellers but they not going for under 190 so to tell you the truth this is the best way to go if you really want to get then here is the link http://www.amazon.com/Magnaflow-1481.../dp/B000CCFJ4S

MaxPrime

Well i try to ge night picture but my camera was not letting me it have 8mp for nothing lol ,
here is how the night picture came out lmfao

Hv10688

i just dont know wat to do with mt ebay catback, i just want a better tone thats all.

Hv10688

should i just replace my factory mufflers with the ebay exhaust mufflers.

MaxPrime

if the sound you getting now is to loud and it sound like you have a cutout then to make it quite you will want to get a bigger resonator, cause i understand the res make it other quite or loud the smaller the louder it is.

MaxPrime

Get the magnaflows ebay stuff you can get it at your local muffler shop dont have to oder it on ebay , i just came back for a muffler shop and i seen all those ebay exhaust in there P.S ebay might be cheaper.

Hv10688

well idk wat to do cuz the ebay pipes r bigger than the stock. i was wondering if there is any way to keep the stock res. its the cabin noise that bothers me.

MaxPrime

You always going to have cabin noise if you still have stock res then it will help you a lot ,but if you dont you may have to get a big res for your ebay cat cause to make those a lil more quite you will need a big resonator.

Hv10688

yeah im trying to find that but i cant find anything. plus i dont wanna spend lot of $$ cuz i can just get greddy for 800. lol

MaxPrime

I am sure one of the other member that know much more than i do come online they will lead you the right way to what you want and can afford.

Hv10688

lol i am new to this, can u explain me how do i IM.

MaxPrime

well if you hit on the im icon on there profile you can talk to someone but they have to be online , but the best bet is to wait till they get on the conversation so they can help you more i am new too i am just on here a lot asking stuff.

Hv10688

thanks a lot for your help

twentyeggs

this is why i did an electronic cutout, i can have it loud and mean when i want and back to stock when i want it quiet, or any volume in between being that it has a variable switch.

Damn, the mufflers and tail lights make a HUGE difference man. Ride looks damn good too.

MaxPrime

Yes you can get a cutout like he say is the best way to go so you dont overkill or under-kill lol try it a lot of people do it.

MaxPrime

Thanks man i am trying to do mod it lil by lil , i think next i want to get that bumper that i am asking about so i can start working on the front of the car , led 6k fogs and head get my new grill and then change the leds inside the car , door handles to chrome , and cai i think didn't make my mind up yet , i want the engine covers that come with the car i only have engine one , i need the cover for the left and right side , i think i will change resonator too not sure , then i will get some rims and new tires , and last but not lease i am going to two tone the car paint it gray all over but the roof black , thinking about the trunk door too but lets see when the time comes.

Car looking good man..post up a video, lets hear it.

MaxPrime

I will try to make a video today you not the first to ask but Idk how good it will come out or sound but I will give it a try, is not loud at all sounds sexy deep tone but that's it, in cabin is small sound like it.

Joelg92

Ride looks great man! So you just have the magnaflow mufflers installed right? Or do you have a whole exhaust system?

MaxPrime

i cant get good video man sorry yall.

MaxPrime

Just mufflers didn't want it to loud and the sounds it make is just what i want it just sorry that i cant get a video that is good to show , but if you looking to get this then do is really good sounds great just removing the the 2 mufflers and adding this nothing else , if you want some more noise then get a smaller resonator see how you like it.

Joelg92

That sounds good to me! I ordered those mufflers along with an intake so by next week they should be at my house and I will install them as soon as they arrive. I will be posting pics up on this thread! Thanks man

MaxPrime

Nice man post your pics when you can , want to see what it look like when is done , plus i want to know whats the different btw the sounds of the mufflers with and with you intake.

Sounds like a good list man. Looking forward to seeing any updates when you start crossing stuff off your mod list. My only suggestion is not to use the chrome door handles. I had that at the beginning a liked it for a little but but then it got old and started looking cheesy and cheap. Since it doesn't go all the way around the door handle. Your better off using that money and buying a HID kit with it. Costs pretty much the same.

Anyways, here's the bumper that I think your talking about:

http://www.bodykits.org/cart/view_pr...hp?ItemID=4033

MaxPrime

Yes i think thast them but if is not i like them too , now i have to see where i can feet this mod in with the rest of them , man been looking for this stuff thanks 6.5 the taillights and magnaflows now this good looking.

6.5affiliate

No problem man, always glad to help when I can. Anyways, with the list you got, I can tell your ride is gonna be a BEAST by the time you get done with it.

MaxPrime

Thanks man i have question what you think about a CAI for the ride , you think i should get it or what , at first i didn't care about performance but i am becoming a fine for doing stuff to the car so what you think?
Also the resonators i want to get a new one but i dont want any more or less noise i love it the way it sound just how it is , should i just leave it like that or take it off and paint it , just want the bottom to look brand new thats all.

6.5affiliate

It's totally up to you man. I think it's a good start to performance mods though. It'll give a slight gain in HP and more airflow into the engine but, then you gotta add some other mods. Like a block off plate and spacers. As for the resonator, I'll be honest and say that I'm completely clueless on that subject.

My suggestions for CAI's would be either a Fugita or R2C. Those two are the most talked about and recommended on these forums.

Anyways, the only negative aspect about a cai is that the extra airflowwill allow dirt and stuff like that into your engine which will ultimately cause engine wear. That's the downfall with performance mods. It's like the saying, "You can't have your cake and eat it too". What you gain in performance. You loose in the longevity of your engine. I just gotta throw that out there for you.

MaxPrime

Oh no sorry forget the CAI i am fine i rather not have it , so what you think i should do next i want to keep my pips just the way they are going to paint them but thast about it , other than pipes what you think i should do after i do front bumper and hid lights.

6.5affiliate

No problem. Honestly, I would suggest getting a grille. It's a fairly simple mod that changes the look of your ride.

You could also either debage your trunk or when you get your paint job. You could tell them to color match your emblems to your ride. That way, it'll look like it's popping out of your car.

MaxPrime

Sounds good but i hate to get a grill not cause i want new bumper first idk why just feel funny to get grill and not have your car done all the way , like getting rims with out a paint or body work done first , thats why i am not getting any rims yet cause car not 99.9% yet , but i see what you saying and i will think about that thing with the letters it might be good or when the time comes i might just remove them idk yet but i am sure going to keep coming to ask questions.
