im wondering what everyone thinks the best exhaust for a 3.4 camaro is???

im looking at the Borla or the Billy Boat exhaust cat backs.....

give me some advice on what to get... thanx

I'd go with RKSport headers, 3" Carsound Cat, and an SLP Loudmouth.

 

ok first off you dont need to spend a fluckin fortune on exhaust ok borla is nice quality so is loudmouth and corsa but they are way to pricey and you dont have those extra two cylinders to back up that muffler.

headers on the other had all i hear about them is that they always leak and people complain about them leak sometimes and that there a bitch to fit on correctly,

i myself have stock headers, cut the cat off and have a 3 inch pipe into a dynomax muffler out to quad outlets, it rumbbles pretty good for a v-6, but there is no way that i would put over a 700 exhaust system into your car. people will make fun of you in a way they could of said that you could have put that money towards a v-8 or something to throw under the hood.

i do have plans this summer to throw on a high flow cat on my car bc i herd that it will make the exhaust less raspy at higher RPMs like if you were to throw it in Neutral or have it in park and rev the **** out of it and if you just gone it off the light it will so deep and loud not raspy and ****y

so im just giveing my two cents

let me know what you think

Oh god...please don't do the neutral rev. Super ghey.

* Unless you really REALLY have you heart set on Borla, look elsewhere. In terms of performance, the systems I've had all felt the same (Borla & custom cat-back). Sorry but no matter what system you go with, you will get raspy in the higher RPMs. We're simply two cylinders short and don't push enough air.

* If you are going to go with headers, do yourself a favor and avoid RKSport at all costs.

* Get a hi-flo cat. Odds are you probably NEED a new cat anyways. Don't look for it to make your car any noticably louder but a little deeper instead. You may/may not get a SES in which case you may/may not need to look into o2 sims.

* Intake before exhaust

* Try a search. When in doubt...search.

Good luck.

 

ive yet to have problems with my RK sport headers on my 3.4L , i have them, along with a highflow cat and a dynomax ultraflow (soon to be replaced with a 2 OTL muffler), i like the sound of the car now, but i love the 2 OTL's looks and flow #'s

the dynomax mufflers sound better than the crap masters ive heard on the 3.4L , the flowmaster is louder, but not as throaty

and an open cutout is good as far as flow goes.... but it sounds like @$$

 

I've got a 94 3.4 with 120,000 on it with stock manifolds and high flow cat with 3 in cat/back flowmaster 40 series with 3 in. outs and 3 in. tips. Sounds great. Couldnt ask for anymore throaty sound out of a 6 cylinder. Stays deap and throaty unless you really on it about 5000 then it turns into a high rumble. Definately doesnt sound import. If I every have to replace the exhaust same setup is going back on. Wish I could post soundclips

 

i have a flowmaster 80 and love it ppl think its a v8 when its idleing!! http://baycityrides.com/vids.html

 

If your looking to spend alot of money i would go with B&B Triflo exhaust. I have it on my 3.4 and it sounds very good and adds a good amount of hp and torque..I also have a randomn tech hiflo cat as well... if u wanna see some pics of the exhuast, i got them on car domain... www.cardomain.com/id/camv695

 

i have a flowmaster 80 series also. I agree, they do sound awsome at a idle. they dont get loud at high rpms really either.

 

i dont know about that, it may sound like a ricer uptop but it gets pretty loud!!

 

i've got stock manifolds, no cat, flowmaster exhaust, and 3.5 inch tips and it sounds awesome for the v6. runs a little rich though . sounds like a v8 at idle and pretty close to one through the lower rpms. i've also got a cai so that helps a little. sound has gotten deep w/ all the miles i've put on it. even at high rpms my car doesn't sound bad, its just loud as f%^k, specially w/ out the cat lol. pops like hell too coming down from higher rpms. all depends on what type of sound you like. l8tr

 

did you notice anything upon removing your cats? performance or anything? Is the sound deep or just louder?

 

Best 3.4 I heard was a girl at my school with a Borla sectional on her 93 M5, it sounded awsome, so much better then mine.

 

i did notice some hp gains from not having the cat. it was noticable as soon as i started the car up again. only thing is that it runs rich now but i can deal w/ that. the sound will increase dramatically also. ur exhaust will be sooo much louder w/out the cat. gives the car move of an open sound. most ppl can not tell the diffence that my car is a v6 when its at idle. but of course you'll always be able to tell when ur in the higher rpms. also when i got the slp cai i could notice huge gain in hp as well as the exhaust got a little deeper. gives the car a whistling sound, something similar to a turbo wh/ is kinda cool imo. i do agree that v6's w/ the borla exhaust sound soooo great but they are extremely expensive. l8tr

 

the first mod that i ever did to my car was the K&N FIPK. I love the sound, i know what you mean. do recommend knockn of teh cats and runnin rich or leavin them on. Is there any dif in the fuel economy?
