I have a '96 Cobra with stock exhaust manifolds, stock H-pipe and Bassani cat back. With or without the Bassani tip inserts it's too quiet.
I've had this combo before with an o/r 2.5in H, and it was way too loud. But I LOVED the sound!
So I'm looking for something in between the two sound levels.
I've heard a stock H-pipe with the cats gutted. It basically sounded like a X-pipe, rasp city!
So I was thinking how about removing the the rear cats on the stock H pipe and having them replaced with steel 2.25in (stock dia) tubes?
It would be louder, and still having pre-cats and being 2.25in it would give a little torque saving backpressure while not being as loud as an o/r H.
If my muffler guy will do this for me I'm going to give it a try. Shouldn't cost much.
Have any of you tried this before?
