Hey guys, I currently am considering doing a few things to my car and I want to know what your opinions are.

I currently have flowmasters AT agreessive axle back and want my car to sound louder and possibly reduce the rasp. I also want the most bang for my buck so notthing too expensive. Could I cut out anything from my car to make it louder without increasing the rasp? How much better would my car sound with a CAI?

I appreciate any inout so please let me know.

THANKS A MILLION IF YOU READ ALL THIS

CAI's make your car louder and have a decent performance bump. It should be your next option no matter what.

You gotta get rid of the stock resonators in the middle of the exhaust system first. I replaced mine with AR25 Aeroturbines but, they are a match for the MRT V1 axlebacks I already had. Not sure if they would work with your setup. To reduce the rasp, you gotta match the back pressure between the two....

You can use a Magnaflow resonated x pipe and will get rid of all or most drone and the rasp. But it wont make it louder, but more smooth and deep but probably more quiet. What I have in my sig is more quiet revving at idle then a magnaflow catback.You need some kind of resonator in there or it will be more raspy.Go MRT 1 and would be louder I think.
