Im not a picky person and i can live with what i have but not being able to hear the 300hp v8 under my hood is a bit hard to live with ha :p whats the cheapest or a cheap way to get my v8 to be heard? i wouldn't even mind buying one of those cheap $20 4" exhaust on ebay and having them installed. in fact i was thinking bout it. but would having a 4" exhaust make me look like a ricer? if anyone on here has pics of there custom muffler feel free to post your pics here. :) or with a 4 inch exhaust. idk bout you guys but i think it would be sick to have a flat-black painted muffler with burnt tips.. hah, oh and since i obviously dont know much about exhaust systems can someone tell me what are the pros and cons of removing your cats and how it makes a difference in sound. thanx :D
