hey guys my son just bought a 02 gt and was wanting to upgrade the exhaust maybe catback??? what do you guys recomend he's on a light budget ( 400-450 ) ????

 

Depends on the level of noise he wants. Can get a lot in that price range

 

so what the best way to go with that amout to have a good sound not too loud

 

son speaking...

i just dont know if i want to stay with the stock H pipe thats on the car now. Im probably leaning towards a magnaflow c/b but its another 300ish bucks for their h pipe.

 

If you want some cheap good sound...go with just Flowmaster mufflers or something along those lines...i paid 110 shipped via ebay.

For catbacks: if you have the money go with bassani.

If you don't want the stock H-pipe...the next thing you have to do is figure if you want it O/R(no cats) or if you want to go with the X-Pipe route.

no flows for me. i have them on my 65 and the drone is HORRIBLE!

i might just buy a magnaflow c/b and buy a h pipe later down the road.

 

the reg. magnaflow catback is just barely louder than stock, now the magnaflow magnapack, its decently loud (stock h) and flows great.

 

still taking ideas ??
thinking about magna flow cats and later down the road get the h-pipe
what are you guys running ??

 

I would recommend an off road h-pipe, but you will also need to buy the mil eliminators. You can buy an off road H or X pipe for around $200 and the mils for $50-60. So for under $300 you can get a good sound out of the car. By deleting the cats you will get the best sound and performance out of the car compared to the cat back. I have the BBK off road Hpipe with 40s flowmasters and I just love the sound. I am getting comments on how good that sounds, all for around $400 total. I would go with the H or X pipe. Now this is all based on a budget. You will eventually need to go with the catback, for performance purposes because of the mendrel bend pipes. For now if you are just looking for sound go with the H or X pipe. I am getting ready to help a buddy put the o/f H pipe on this weekend versus going with the catback.
