if you want a little sound DO NOT GET A MIDPIPE.

if you want sound then get a catback. MS ones are pretty quiet compared to most.

if you want something cheaper then try an intake.

alright HONESTLY my midpipe sounds as quiet as stock does, when i start it up in morning it sounds completely stock..the only time you really hear it is when i go above 4k then you hear it, but not much

It really depends on the midpipe. The TurboXS Midpipe (Which dozer sports) sounds very quiet due to the HUGE resonator that's on it, keep in mind, it needs modification to fit the OEM or any other exhaust besides the TurboXS exhaust. If you want to go even quieter than the TurboXS Midpipe then get the Dual Resonated midpipe that Mazport or BHR developed. People say that all midpipes sounds the same, as in, they're all loud. THEY'RE NOT!

what is loud is the full headerback AP system. Or and hks hipower + AP midpipe.

+100dB

Look at that fatass resonator on the TurboXS Midpipe. Compare that to any other midpipe on the market.

dozer 05-30-2009 01:18 AM
