You know when you are getting old
 
Today I pulled cat back exhaust off and installed the OEM muffler.

Man after my own heart, Im dedicated to keeping mine as factory as possible

This is the first car I've owned that didn't get an exhaust as the first mod. I've also started shaking my fist at the youngin's with pops and bangs that like to unnecessarily rev up and down, over and over while driving down my street...

I know what you mean!, I removed my Ark Performance catback exhaust to re-install OEM mid pipe with AAM S-line muffler (slightly louder than stock). I couldn’t handle the drone any longer. But, at least I’m not back to 100% stock…..lol.

But I’m not sure it’s an age thing. It’s more a question of experience and taste. I know a lot of younger car enthusiasts that go to quieter exhausts after they get the drone, pops, bangs out of their systems and look for a more mature sound.

Thanks for all the responses. 40 Years ago I would have loved the sound, now i just want to listen to the radio and maybe the wife at 70 MPH, not the exhaust.

They are very difficult to sell when modded out!

I could understand you wanting to listen to the radio, but the wife? :rofl2:

Maybe it’s just me, but are loud aftermarket exhausts becoming a thing of the past? When I used to hear a loud car, I’d think wow powerful car, now I think just another loud exhaust someone slapped on whatever car they have.

Given the earlier post, which I agree with, an expanded version may be......
When most of what you say involves aches and pains, doctors and hospitals, and drugs that you use....and, of course, the cost of all of the foregoing items.
When that happens and you notice it, you feel that you have crossed the point of no return. However, fight to stay young, ask for God's help and keep the faith so you can delay the inevitable.
