Another exhaust question
Is the X pipe the answer for getting more sound out of my exhaust? I just had two super 40 flowmasters installed and barely sounds like I have exhaust. Please help!

The best way to push sound out of these cars is longtube headers and off road pipe. An X pipe won't do anything but change the sound up a tiny bit. I made sure I went with the loudest cat back so I wasn't in your position, but it still isn't loud enough.

Yup, it's the cats that restrict the most. Get headers and highflows and that beast will come alive. Oh, and of course with headers you'll need a tune. You'll love it

Well if you are in California like your location says then long tube headers are out of the question for you because they are not legal in your state.......

yeah but everything in CA is illegal. If you really want to i'd do it anyway. Your emissions testing doesn't involve getting under the car and checking the piping does it?
