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.

    • I might just check it out.. A Q among all those skylines.. lol
    • Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
    • The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.
    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
