Cheap way out, change the end pipe diameter (like Casper suggested)
Expensive way out, new 2 1/2" catback with straight through muffler.

My friend has a Hotdog + Muffler. No extractors, and it sounds loud/mean as.
Won't your setup be just a bit too loud?

GlennAUII has a nice sounding car.
Not sure on what exhaust combo he's running though. I have a 2 1/2" catback with straight through muffler with twin 2 1/2" tips and it sounds OK.

If you really want to stand out... 3inch cat back with 1 small high flow sports muffler.
and believe me, it screams out... you'll want it quieter lol. |
