Beluga catback need to be louder
 
Hello,

I love the way how my exhaust sounds but I just wish it would be a bit louder. Are there any modifications I can do to make it louder? Such as changing the muffler but keeping the aftermarket Y Pipe + Midpipe? Or even changing my current Y pipe with another brand.

Thanks

Do you already have test pipes? It'll definitely be louder.

I have the Meisterschaft axel back expensive, but well worth it. Today I had their mid pipes installed and what a difference. It is still tame at idle, but get up to 2500 rpms and it started getting loud. Once you hit 4000 rpms, holly **** does it sound great. I'm an old man (64) and my 21 year old son says if the 370Z's came with this exhaust, he would buy a Z.
For their complete system, it's about $2500. You may want to look at AAM h-pipe midpipe for about $850 I think. I thought about buying it, but decided to stick with the same brand as the axel backs.

Test pipes for sure

Test Pipes would be the cheapest way to make it louder if you're on a budget. Just make sure you have to tools needed to remove the OEM Cats and secondary transportation if you bust a socket/wrench.

Another option is Short Tails (Muffler Delete). I had AAM Short Tails for a few months before saving to buy a full CBE and absolutely LOVED the sound. They cost a bit more than test pipes new, but you can get used ones for relatively cheap (I'm actually going to be selling mine here within a few weeks). I even debated fabricating my own X and Midpipe to kill the drone and resonance inside the cab. After tearing down the OEM exhaust and figuring what I would have needed to do without a Mandrel Bender, I decided to buy a complete CBE.

Sawzall. Right behind the cats. Get rid of all that sissy exhaust stuff.

yeah i think I'm going with testpipes, however after doing some research its basically an 80% that I'll get a CEL even if i get the berk test pipe CEL fix model?

If you go high flow cats or test pipes I would take it in for a tune ASAP. You won't be fully benefiting from the upgrades without it. And that way if you do end up getting a CEL, the tuner can deactivate it.
