kinda dumb exhuast question.

Hey guys i got a question about exhuast. Is it true that exhaust sounds different if u buy a complete cat-back system then just the same muffler and custom bent tubing from the cat-back? I mean like if i bought the whole n-1 cat-back then just buying the n-1 muffler and getting it put on by a shop with cat-back 3in tubing. thanks guys.

Respectable manufacturers don't just take a generic muffler and slap on 3" piping bent to fit the car. They research muffler packing for each application, bend radius, flow characteristics, noise output, etc.

That should answer this thread. NEXT!
