Because he had the muffler removed AND pipes added in it's place.

What he said. Aam short tails $389-$429 somthin like that, price at a muffler shop to run straight pipe using Nismo tips $265. Went back and they stuck a baffle in to lessen the loudness. Happy now. Sounds perfect.

Don't forget to add the hood scoop to finish off your performance mods!

Didn't do it for performance did it to get some sound.

good to hear you got the baffle installed to get it toned down a little.

so you like it better than the washer mod, right?

Nismoracer · 01-12-2011, 02:51 PM

Of course. Did the washer mod because I was curious. You've seen the videos. Had to do it to see how it sounded in person. It's not like it takes alot of time or skill to do.

whats a washer mod

Ron · 01-26-2011, 08:16 PM

Its when u put a couple of washers to separate the muffler from the rest of the exhaust. Thus creating an exhaust leak, which will make the car sound louder. There's a couple of threads with pictures, do a search

wow i didnt even know about this... But wont it make it rasp like TEST PIPES???

Ron · 01-26-2011, 09:18 PM

Nop, no rasp. I tried it with two 5/16 washers on each bolt just out of curiousity. It actually sounds good but I did feel the lost in backpressure causing the car to rev faster but not go anywhere lol. I took them off as soon as the exhaust cooled down.
