This seems like it will actually be better than the last exhaust clip thread. Solid idea!

Mine is a simply muffler delete, cut the muffler out and weld a straight pipe in it's place. It's loud enough. I added a ricer tip that was taken out after a while.

ya know... that's not at all as bad sounding as I feared it would be... I still want UELs for my Brighton, but maybe... they're not as vital to the sound as I thought. I mean, it lacks the rumble of the UELs, but it's not as tinny and irritating as the same setup on an I4 engine.

I ran my stock el headers for a while Muse and it really wasn't to bad. I hated it above 4k though. Very I4ish. That was back when I ran stock kittys and that was it though lol. If it had a resonator and a muffler then it would be fine imo.

My current exhaust set up.

Uel Knockoffs
Stock cats
Stock mid-pipe
$0 got the headers of a car Chad and I split.
Its loud and people ask if I am turbo swapped. Got a 2 thumbs up from an STi the other day.

[Muse]

Actually, I've got UELs swapped in now. But between the rest of the exhaust being stock, and all of my heat shields rattling like Marley's chains in A Christmas Carol, I can't hear them at all.
