Do I need an exhaust?

LostMarine · 11-18-2009, 09:24 PM

I have every bolt on now, other than midpipes back. I love the sound of my exhaust as it is. which is slightly more throaty and louder than factory. Am I hurting anything by not swapping it? I really don't want to hear exhaust or DRONE when driving, i love that these cars are so well mannered.

you really dont need exhaust they barley do a thing anyway
your fine
if anythin get rid of the 2nd cats

LostMarine · 11-18-2009, 09:31 PM

BoostedCosta · 11-18-2009, 09:31 PM

Reason being? I mean you have all the bolt ons, why not have race gas for cheap a cheap price of methanol injection to furthur increase performance of all those mods you already have..I don't have every bolt on (FMIC, DPs) and I can say the gains are astronomical....Can't wait to get some Dps...Meth trumps the FMIC for me I would say though..

LostMarine · 11-18-2009, 10:29 PM

i guess i kinda consider it cheating.. not always there..

john boxter · 11-19-2009, 12:37 AM

Craig@SupremePower · 11-19-2009, 11:49 PM

Meth is just like running rase gas on a cold night. If you go upgraded turbos to make the real power your gonna need meth, almost all FI cars use it to fight back detonation just like race gas does. So I don't see it as cheating more of added insurance for your motor. So if you use race gas you are already cheating, just go with something cheaper your motor will thank you for it.
