People swear I have a v6 with my HKS carbon TI + silencer. 2.5 inch piping to middle of car then OEM to cat. Nice en quiet but not raspy like a bumblebee on most i4s.. :)

^^^Get with it, we have no torque to lose.


Drive with your catback for a while...and then go back to bone stock...you'll see what tq you have to lose...and you'll realize you lost it. While it's true we don't have much tq...and losing some of it shouldn't matter...think about it the other way. We don't have much tq....therefore we can't really afford to lose anymore. That's why I said if you don't care about the loss in tq...then aftermarket would probably work since he sounds like he's going for the sound.

vietninja are you talking in reference to the AV6? or the 4 banger, or cars in general?

because I know the AV6 is notoriously known for feeling more sluggish with a catback, i dont think 4 bangers respond to catbacks trhe same as AV6's.

I'm talking about the V6. If he's not...then I retract all previous statements....d'oh.
