Thread: 2.3t exhaust

  1. #1

    Default 2.3t exhaust

    Before I put my exhaust back on I want to make it sound good. Any ideas under 100$? I would like to use the stock 2inch pipe still since I don’t have much to spend

    Not much one can do with a 4 cyl exhaust sound wise.
    Dual exhaust tips (factory 'sport tuned') do change the muffler tone.
    Long time ago i did hear an SVO with duals that did sound good.
    I use a single Thrush turbo oval muffler with the stock dual 2" tips. Stock 2.25" pipes, cat back.
    Coworkers commented it sounded mellow from far away as i left the parking lot headed home.
    Quiet inside, with a little sound outside when throttled up. Much louder when 'dumped' (no tailpipe).
    Anything like a glass pack sounds harsh and echos loudly, say under overpasses, when driving.
    Especially accel thru gears. Even with tailpipe. Pretty much like no muffler at all. Quiet though when idling.
