I know everyone has thier personal preferences but i'm looking for some advice. I love the tone of my 2010 exhaust, but want more volume. I bought an MRT catless H pipe and have had it on for a month. The volume is perfect. At part throttle the only hint that something is different is a stronger rumble. At wide open throttle, i can barely hear my pullied m122. On downshifts it has an amazing pop and crackle.
My issue come with the tone: it seems to have moved up at least half an octave. It is just too high pitched for taste. I tried staying with an H-pipe to keep the lower tone, but honestly, the stainless steel's thinner walls have to have a higher resonant frequency than the thicker OEM steel.
I have contemplated buying another OEM H pipe and just punching out the catalytic converters. Are there any other suggestions? I have watched about a billion youtube videos but i haven't actually heard any in person. I was trying to avoid the costs of long tubes, but i'm at the point that i may have to suck up those costs. I am, however, set on keeping my stock mufflers as i find aftermarket mufflers also tend to move the sound up in pitch.
