Well I've had my car for a while now and I recently realized the exhausts note wasn't very good. A friend of mine told me that at high rpms (while behind me in his car) the car sounds like a civic lol. I guess it's pretty raspy then lol. I think it's because of the restrictive muffler here's a pic. it's 3 in from the manifold to this muffler. So now I'm looking at catbacks and mufflers lol but I don't have that much income lol I'm 17. Therefore I ask if anyone knows if the Isis gt catback is any good. How low does it sit and will my Sr still be raspy? anyone have pics of fitament? thnx

Have thought that it might be an exhaust leak?

Do you even have a resonator? That would help a lot.

new manifold, new muffler, install resignated test pipe instead of cat, and if you want a meaner exhaust note you shouldn't have built an sr.

Idk about a TP. I feel like it isn't worth affecting the gas mileage. Plus I don't think I could find a direct replacement TP for my cat. It's not a stock cat .....

if you have a s13 exhaust and an s13 turbo mani it will fit just fine.
