Remus Catback is pretty quiiet and tasteful. Either that, get the OEM replacement BOSAL catback | | | | | 10-19-2008, 03:06 PM | #3 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Land of the Vikings Posts: 2,700 |
get a different tail trim welded on the original rear section. it will give you the look your after without sacrificing sensibility  __________________

I picked up an ANSA catback a few months back. Looks good and is quiet. The best I could find for the money in that catagory. __________________  | | | | | 10-20-2008, 03:16 PM | #5 | | Member Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Crieff,Scotland(near Stirling) ,UK Posts: 43 |

I have a SuperSprint which may be still available in Europe/UK. Back in the day there was a quantitative test done of +/- 8 models and SS was the quietest and gave the most HP increase believe it or not. However, the one I have on now has around 40k miles (well worn in) and I think it's hard to hear my daughter sometimes. I suppose the best would be to insulate for sound beneath the carpet or just get a new stainless tip for $20! __________________

There should be a thread here so you can find pictures. __________________

Do any of you have the old exhaust you took out of your cars? I am looking for an exhaust flang that mounts up to the back of the catalytic converter. | | | | | 10-26-2008, 12:41 AM | #9 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Regensburg, Germany Posts: 584 |
