Default Custom True Dual Exhaust Setup

How's it going guys. I made a thread a while back ago discussing possible exhaust setups for the 2is. I ended up getting an exhaust system, and got too lazy to post it. So without further ado, it's been a long time coming. I apologize for the delay. Here's my exhaust setup:



Let me know what you think.

Nice! What's the set up? Still have the secondary cats? Which mufflers are you using? How the sound inside the car? Any drone?

it's 2.5 inch downpipes into an x pipe and back into magnaflow mufflers. I don't have any secondary cats or resonators. Both were deleted. The sound inside the car is nice. Deep down low and gets high pitched up top. There is some drone, but not too much. And also it depends on you personally. Exhaust setups that a lot of people on the forum deem to be be very loud are actually very quiet to me in person. A lot of people on here are very sensitive in terms of sound and what they deem loud or maybe I'm just insensitive lol. Anyhow, I thought this setup was gonna be super loud before i got it, but i was wrong. I like loud exhaust so the drone inside is personally too quiet for me. I'm actually trying to make this setup louder. Hope that answers your questions.

I like the sound, but at WOT it gets a little raspy for me; personally. I think it sounds beautiful at idle and normal acceleration. I wish there was a way to keep it that tone all the way through the RPM curve.

Nice job!

Thanks and you'd need a resonator to cut the rasp.

That sounds really good! I did the exact same thing but with Flowmaster mufflers instead, they told me it had a higher pitch than Magnaflow so I went that direction instead.
