I had a 2.5L with the sho shop Y with a magnaflow resonator and bassani catback. I couldn't have been happier with the sound.

However when I installed the 3L and headers the rasp was very high pitched and I couldn't stand it. I couldn't even stand to drive the car. I tried swapping the magnaflow resonator on the Y pipe for a high flow cat but that did nothing. Installed the Trubendz and I'm much happier with it. It still has some rasp but I can live with it. It's load, probably too load for a DD but I only drive it on nice days. I'll get some drive by clips up soon.

So the full setup is 3L, MSDS headers, Sho shop Y pipe with high flow cat, Trubendz cat back with flow master muffler and magnaflow resonator tips.

Ok so I wasn't happy with the amount of rasp I still had so I ordered a magnaflow muffler to replace the flowmaster. NO MORE RASP!!! I'm very happy with the sound. I still prefer the way the Bassani sounded with the 2.5L though but I'm just so happy to be rid of the rasp!




Next is a tune.
