Exhaust Clip Stock and Vibrant - MP3 file

Pics:




Now, I DID have a bad cat mind you so the stock exhaust sounds like ***. 2 new cats, the vibrant exhaust set me back $387 and the piping back and labor cost $214 (out the door)

My CE light is on too. I'm going ot scan it tomorrow.

I'm considering getting a resonator. Comments?

sounds good man. hard to say though whether or not you need a resonator, cause you didn't show us what it sounds like outside the car when you rev it.

your stock exhaust sounded like it had a leak too, and yeah it sounded sh*tty.

Just got a Flowtech Purple Hornie glasspack put on and now the tone is PREFECT! There's no more droning and now the tone is sporty but not obtrusive. In short, if you're running 2.25" straight back to a vibrant axle back getting a resonator should be a priority. It's a night and day difference and now I can hear my intake.
