Bored again...here's a vid/sound clip..., of my exhaust... Options

[Anub1s]

Coomer, your exhaust sounds really good from inside of the car but when you are driving away it had a little rice twang to it, again this is just my opinion. Over all both of your exhausts sound good its just that stupid fart-can-ish sound that ruins the whole thing.

[Coomer]

Gotcha. I'm going to listen closely at lunch and see what it sounds like as I drive through the highway thing to the next town over. I never really notice it I guess.

[playr158]

i think that is because of no resonator, that is if he doesn't have one cause thats wat mine does cause of no resonator(which i'm putting back in)

Wow....where do I start........Digndoug....dont talk about "ricey".........here let me be honest for once..........all I have 2 say is u spay painted ur stock 15 inch rims gold...........Next, Anub1s..........please dont talk ur car is completely stock .........Importceli.....its just funny how u have a stock converrtable with neons....-It just gets me mad when people missuse the word rice when they are in no positions to call other cars rice!-

Next that exhaust sounds really good..........it just proves that u dont need to get a complete and expensive exaust to make it sound good like this one does-
Keep up the good work!

coomer your exhaust is amazing, what is it?

[Coomer]

6GGT, no worries man...nothing wrong with painting wheels or having a stock car. I painted the wheels on my stock '88 Celica.

95gts, It's 2.5" piping from the factory header to a big resonator to 2.5" piping to a OBX muffler. I should've gone 2.25" and I should at least add another resonator or something to quiet it down a bit. Thanks for the comment though.

I have an HKS setup (well the hi power muffler and custom 3" piping thats kinda half mandrel and half crush) and I think my exhaust is pretty nice. I personally dont think its loud, well atleast when im driving. But everyone says my exhaust is crazy loud. I went through a parking garage the other day and set off seriously over 20 alarms, so I think they are right.

Another thing that effects exhaust sound is, obviously, engine type. John is running a 100hp 7a-fe, commer a 160hp 4a-ge with vvt, and I have a 225hp 3s-gte. Turbo always makes exhaust note much deeper.

I'll try to get a sound clip on my comp to share, coomer what did you use to get your sound clips?

[Coomer]

I used my old E-Machines laptop. It was fully charged, so I got to record for about 15 minutes before the battery died completely.

[latinomasfino]

Please don't pass judgement on people that you know nothing about. My car being mostly stock implys nothing on my mechanic abilities nor knowledge. So...please think before you speak. Mynzeyes asked for my opinion and I gave it. Thats all it was.

And Coomer, I agree with Playr if you add another resonator it would probably sound amazing. Good luck.

Clickie Savie.

and w/ the window down:
Clickie Savie.

maybe these are a little better, because they aren't right on the muffler? ::shrug::

It sounds a lot better inside the car. Kudos.

[95gtschick]

sounds good, nice job

[initialdrift55]

the reason your first video may have sounded "ricey" if that (i thought it was fine) was because you had just started your car and it was still cold....put the camera by the exhaust but with your car already warmed up and you will get a different sound more like the later video's u posted. Mynzeyes awesome job the car sounds great IMO and same for you Chris

[shin]

i think both of your muffler sounds great. coomer's muffler's nice and deep, Mynzeyes muffler's nice too but alittle distorted. i think my muffler sounds rice. i got one of those ebay jump off and it sucks. i've just ordered a Tanabe medalion racing muffler and it'll be here next week. hope it sounds alot better then.

[Blakout16]

i got a 2.25" cat-back exhaust w/ a magnaflow series II muffler. im not exactly shure how it sounds, but i guess sooner or later ill post a clip.

[shin]

just recieved my tanabe muffler~~ gonna weld it on tomorrow, hopefully sounds clips tomorrow. gonna install the koyo radiator, rear brembo brake rotors and NGK spark cables.

[Mynzeyes]

ok, i'm home. everything is back up and running now. .

[redtcel]

is it just me or should you not be driving that fast with one hand trying to steer and shift at the same time ? haha just kidding. i think it sounds fine. you should hear mine.. it is loud and obnoxious. i have headers a cat a down pipe and a secondary cat .... then nothing else... ill get some sould clips from that and we'll see what is loud and what isnt.

there we go. it is slow. and i messed up and made them all one vid, but it is pretty obvious when it switches, the first part is out side the car obviously, second part is in side with windows up, third part is in car drivers side window down. enjoy.
