Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    Mis-order, oops.

    Lol so I ordered an exhaust from car-option and noticed that it came with 4-2-1 headers & 2.5" piping. Wasn't till after I purchased it I noticed the tip was 4.5". It came with a silencer but oh well, I don't know what I should do.

    I don't want my car to sound like a fart can, and I don't want it to look ricey! On top of all that, I'm pretty darn sure when I put on my h&r race springs & koni sports that it's going to hit speed bumps all the time.

    I'm probably going to buy another, so I don't know if I should get something from ebay or actually get something from the local performance shop? I mean piping is piping as somebody mentioned before, but the muffler/exhaust tip probably matters right? I'm looking for something around 3".


    Any ideas? Thing looks like a damn chrome plated at4

      alright coz it'll be with my h22. As long as it doesn't sound like I'm about to bust out the soy sauce I'll be alright.

          that muffler isnt to bad, considering i have the same one. if you lower it just hit those speedbumps sideways. i wouldnt just get another one use it and get your money's worth unless you can make a profit or loose nothing if you sell this and buy another. sounds alright on mine, well i got a turbo so it wont sound the same as yours.

              yeah lol yours would be way more quieter I'm assuming. I'll just wait until everything is running and if I don't like it maybe I'll sell it on ebay for like $35 or something haha.

                Well it depends on what brand it is. eBay shit will sound like shit. since you are going n/a it will sound like crap because of how little muffling that muffler does
                . I bet it would sound like sex off of a boosted car though. You can always angle the muffler like The 240sx guys do it.

                    The tip isn't going to affect the sound that much. The resonator and cat will affect it much more than the tip. I've got a 4.5 inch on mine (whichc came with the exhaust attached, but I traded my OEM for the whole damn stainless 60 mm, so I can't cry) and it's not bad. It's got a little rasp around 2500 under partial throttle (and only under the right conditions, I can drive around it, if that makes sense), which you can hear in the first video, but I don't consider it ricey.

                      Thanks for the videos! That muffler doesn't sound half as bad as I thought it would , but the only difference is is that yours is Spyder and mines no-named lol :/

                      PS: Nice car!

                        Thanks. I was wondering if the vids would show, all I have on my end are white rectangles where they should be. Looks like it's time to reboot, I haven't turned the computer off for a while. (at least a week.)
