But now that it's 8 years later, and there are decent sounding, cheap, cat-back exhausts on the market (the Megan Racing axle-back comes to mind)... there's no real excuse to run a piece of drain pipe over the rear axle, unless your goal is to sound like a loud-ass tractor.
Yea. It's kind of a temporary thing. I know this STI that runs straight pipes and it sounds very pretty but then i've heard terrible sounding ones. I simply can't afford even 400 bucks for a good used catback right now LOL. I spent hours on Nasioc with 0 luck. You think my video sounded bad? You're a bastard BTW for mentioning it sounding like a tractor. I paid close attention and it does ; (..... God I hate being a broke ass. The one thing I will say though is until I go catless DP, it's still slightly quieter than a Blitz Nur spec R.
