Hey ppl hope you all had a good christmas and new year !

Ive noticed on the exhaust of my car there is a bolt which to me would appear to be holding in some kind of baffle in the exhaust not 100% tho jus wonderd if this sounds normall to any 1 or if any 1 has any experience with this type of thing cheers,

some aftermarket mufflers have this. Take it out and see how loud it is. My old exhaust sounded horrible w/o the silencer so I left it in forever.

my backbox came with a bolt in silencer which looked like a funnel, i took mine out and sounds and looks alot better (Y)

lol, its crazy how that works out. I've heard a lot of cars with the silencer in and they sound so odd, and so much better without it.

Like he said, take it out.

if your running the stock header and cat leave the silencer in.

I would say leave your catalytic converter in as long as your N/A, It will give you the slight amount of back pressure you want on an N/A Engine, as well as quite down your car and not make your exhaust stink.

my friend put one of the Skunk2 exhausts on his DA with the stock header. with the silencer out it sounded like a major fart cannon / horribly raspy/ricey it wasn't too bas with the silencer in....


I <3 my Apexi World Sport. f!#@! a silencer

wish mine was still as crispy as this one...
