Does anyone know how this will sound?

OK, Im planning on getting a muffler and having some muffler shop weld it on from the axle. I cant afford a catback right now, so this will do until I get there. I know our stock pipping is pretty small. Im planning on getting a 2.25" inlet ractive muffler.

Does anyone know how its going to sound? Low and deep? Stock? Fart cannish? I just need to know before I throw down some cash for it. Thanx

ps - I moved my own thread, coz I have a feeling it will be deleted from the general auto ramblings section

From my experiance the Ractive's are LOUD!!! They do have some good deep tone, but are almost too loud. More like a fart can. IMO, I would just wait to do a cat back.

it will sound like ****. ractive mufflers sound ricey. get either a tanabe hyper, rsr exmag, or a 05 type s muffler. really what's the point of getting just a muffler, espcially a cheap one.

I'd have to disagree with this statement. He needs to save up his pennies, get a real muffler like tanabe, HKS, or RS*R. Then go to a custom exhaust shop and get custom piping done. Cheap and gets the job done. If not buy a megan catback since they're cheap and decent quality. Don't mean to offend anyone but enough with the stupid ****. Getting a cheap muffler welded on will make him regret it down the road.

Yeahh, Im just tired of looking at my rear bumper and not seeing anything there. The tip on my stock is pretty recessed under the bumper. U have to bend down to actually see it.

I just need to make sure that I will get a nice deep sound from a muffler thats pretty cheap. I read a post that someone said getting one of those carbon fiber ones from ebay are pretty good and not ricey. Has anyone got a carbon fiber muffler from ebay?

Does anyone know where I can get an RSX-S muffler?

OK I don't know what happened there... But this is the internet... People have opinions. Thats what this is all about. If you don't like it, turn it off. (This isn't directed to anyone in particular, the topic just got out of hand)

Meanwhile, Back ON topic.......

I waited to get my Invidia. I know the sentament of waiting to do an exhaust, nut I realy belive you should save up your pennies. Look around the internet. I found my $560-somthin' exhaust, for $400 shipped. There are deals out there.

couldnt have said it better myself! its the cheapest and less money for the same ****. idk i saved myself alot of money. i got a apexi n1 muffler, and went to a shop and got 2 1/2 piping from cat back. 180 bucks. so i spent like 250 for everthing. then i bought a header and DP. so for everything i prob paid the same amount for just a rear section but i got the whole thing.
