x pipe question

Todd0131 · 08-12-2016, 03:19 PM

Sorry I looked for a search, but had no luck on mobile. I currently have test pipes on factory xpipe and its was too loud. Would a quad resonated one be quieter? I am looking at a Borla and pairing it with a Dinan rear. I appreciate the help.

Did you find it too loud with a factory muffler? Cats muffle more sound than resonators, so a quad resonated X-Pipe will still be louder than keeping the cats.

Pairing a quad-X-pipe with a Borla or Dinan muffler will be significantly louder than stock.

I have it paired with oem modded exhaust. Sounds like a nascar. I guess it's time to find another stock rear to swap on. Thanks for the help

You might want to take a look at the Corsa rear section.

I guess I am ok with it. If it were a tad quieter it would be much better Sounds like total crap sometimes and then other times it sounds good. Still not sure what to do. I know I def want it quieter for sure

You would be very happy with stock rear and test pipes
