I use one on my gtspec and it does make it alot quieter, it does sound kinda farty when its on tho. I only put it on if im going on a trip, becuz with it out, the droning gives me a headache.

Silencers suck.

May as well put the stock exhaust back on if you're gonna choke it down with a 1.5" opening.

It won't make your car a "sleeper." If anything it makes it sound more ricey because in the upper RPM's it gets pretty high pitched (and mine whistled too.)

Like Cyrus240sx said, I only use mine on long drives.

Some guy at school bought something off Ebay that looked like a silencer but it made a real loud squeak when he shifted, sounded like a crappy BOV.

Maybe you're thinking of one of those to make the "turbo" louder?

WTF, why a silencer? Tollerate it or sell it.
