Is your ride N/A (Natually Aspirated) or are ya gunna go Turbo or Supercharger? If you are N/A then ........

What you need is a Header (not Headers). Check Ebay for an OBX Header with a Downpipe/Flexpipe. Best to remove the Exhaust Pipe from the back of the Resonator and the Factory Muffler. Have a Muffler shop install an Exhaust Pipe that is 2 & 1/4" from the back of the Resonator to your Muffler (what kinda Muffler is it ???) Better to go with a Flowmaster Deltaflow or a Magnaflow Muffler.

just overkill for n/a, unless it's a special setup. Bolt-ons certainly shouldn't need it...

It hurts the power to increase your exhaust line if you are not pumping out more air.

When I bought my car it already had a larger exhaust tube installed with a can muffler. I'm not sure what the diameter of the tube is. I will check it this weekend and see. I do know that it looks as if someone took different pieces of piping and welded it all together. Does it make a difference whether the piping is welded together or held using brakets? BTW I am planing on installing the OBX headers and would like to also install a high flow cat. Megan Racing
After that I would like to replace the straight through muffler for one that is a little quieter. I love the sound when I start up and the car is idling, but the car has a drone at highway speeds. Has anybody heard of a company called SuperTrapp?
SuperTrapp: Performance Exhaust
Supposedly you can tune the sound of the exhaust as well as the power band based on how many discs you have installed. Any info would be helpfull. Thanks.
