Full Exhaust setup?

Yo

My Friend has this setup...

Jet Hot LT's
Hooker Y Pipe
Gutted Cats
SLP Loudmouth

It sounds FREAKIN AMAZING, but to loud to comfort.

What can I do to get a similar sound but deafen it a tad? I want the Jet Hot LT's for sure for their tremendous gains, and possibly for the SLP Loudmouth for its price, but the other two are still way up for grabs if someone can help me here.

Also... where does the Off Road Pipe go in place of, and is really that good? Would it increase or decrease the volume in the exhaust system?

the off road pipe is simple a Y shaped pipe with one end going off and opening into the air, and the other end going through the CAT and Muffler....

if u dont want it so loud, dont cut the car and get the off road pipe...with my cutout, i know its about twice as loud.

Yo

So then instead of the gutted cat... just keep a cat there and it should deafen the sound? Put a performance or an upgraded one or whatever you call it there... but no cutouts or off road pipes... if I do that it shouldn't get TO loud?

Yeah, just put a Catco high flow cat on, it'll kill most of the raspy sound, and take the noise level down just a bit.

theres two ways to help out. Keep the cat (the stock one is fine and actually flows pretty well), and in the Loudmouth system, replace the resonator with a Dynomax bullet muffler. This should keep the noise reasonable but still plenty loud to get you noticed. If thats still too loud, you have chosen the wrong catback for your needs, as its just what the name says

and stop prefacing all your posts with "Yo"...it makes you sound like a goober.
