For now i've got a little bit of extra cash and seeing as my car has no zhaust I was planning on getting one...

Just after some opinions on what I should get and atm i'm only after some sound

I was told by my cousin if I was after noise I should go with a 2 1/4 Catback with a 5" Cannon and remove my mufflers.

What do you reckon?

*edit* Budget - Roughly $500

a straight pipe from behind the cat with a 5" tip muffler ...... yeah that's pretty loud! The police will hunt you for that.

and won't have much trouble finding you as they will be able to hear you from 3 suburbs away, LOL

the car is a NA. it will need mufflers to be quiet. a turbo on the other hand will be much more quiet with the same system

Don't do it, the only thing less classy than an underpowered car making a ridiculously loud noise, is an underpowered car making a ridiculously loud noise with a cheap overstated body kit.

BTW you could probably get the desired effect by taking a 1/8" drill to your existing muffler.

im running stock headers, then 2.5" piping with a leaking resonator to twin 2" tips. Its not THAT loud....but the noise is definately an aquired taste...

if you want something louder i reckon just replace the rear muffler with a cannon, dont waste money on the rest of the exhaust...

I reckon just run a pipe off the cat to side-dump under the driver's door. f**k the cannon, that shit muffles things occasionally.

Wind the window down and you'll be sick as.

Cant you READ?, he already said his car does NOT have an exhaust...i would've thought that would be loud enough

I can read actually. Can't you? The OP specifically says he wants an exhaust.

So his 2 aims are:

1. loud

2. have an exhaust

Hence why I suggested one to him that doesn't make the car too much quieter than his current un-loud setup. Telling him to leave the car without an exhaust doesn't meet his "I want an exhaust" requirement.

I'd also suggest removing the cat, which will provide even more noise, and hopefully sick flames to boot. The extra bang from flames popping out the exhaust will not only give him "some" sound, but also an "extra" sound to boot. Its a 2-for-1 deal that's only a broom handle away!

No idea why people get smart when I post things.

It helps counter-act the dumb.

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
