Glasspack of Turbo
Hey. i finally got some money and first thing i want to upgrade is the muffler. My plans are to remove the cat and replace the muffler. The only muffler resources i have are glasspack or turbo.
Im leaning towards the turbo muffler

Do a chambered muffler on a four cylinder, turbo or glasspack either one will sound like rice.

I've heard Flowmasters on a 2.4 Cavy once. Loud as hell, and sounded like shit.
ANY "I" motor will sound like a lawnmower with a glasspak. I've heard the 4.2 I-6 with a full exhaust (Trailblazer) and it sounded like ass

and don't delete the cat, the 3hp gain isn't worth destroying the air around you. plus i'm sure you'll need it for inspection. just get a high flow cat

3hp gain from deleting a cat?
I gotta ask where you heard that. Maybe a 3hp gain on a 400HP car, maybe
