Test Pipe Advice
 
So with MR.Squeeze's supercharger kit on the way, i want to make a few changes to my car before i install and tune it.

As the car sits now i have a somewhat custom exhaust, i had a magnaflow catback, but, i removed the axle back section and replaced it with straight pipes. The car sounds absolutely amazing, its incredibly loud at wot and at cruising speeds the exhaust is not even noticeable. At the moment i have 0 rasp and 0 drone.

With my f.i. kit, i would like to add resonated test pipes, however, i dont want drone, and i dont want rasp.

So... Which test pipes should i go with?


(ill post a sound clip of my exhaust soon)

i would say your best bet would be ark. but tbh i think u will be fighting a ton of rasp either way

What about catalytic converters?

if you want to keep the rasp down HFCs would definitely be the better option. especially with the straight pipes

Is there one hfc that is quiter than the others?

ART pipes

a lil back pressure helps boost with sc apps from what i've read as well. so a hfc and maybe a resonater somewhere down the line probably wouldnt hurt

The exhaust has 2 resonators as it is, my only option would be to redo the axle back...

As i understand it, ART pipes are slightly quieter than HFCs and have a deeper tone. amirite?!
