Title: Increase the sound
Post by: Denis on November 19, 2005, 01:20:27 AM
I have a SS VY 11 and as you know they are quiet in sound. What small modification can I make so when I give it a bit of gas the sound will purrr ?? Some people tell me it's the exhaust???

Hi Denis,

I dont think there are small mods that exist to make a car sound better.

A new exhaust system with some nice mufflers will do the trick.

Depending on where you are..

I use Tuffy Alexandria in Roseberry (Syd), they can recommend brands etc based on your car and your budget.

FWIW, I just had my car noise tested and it passed at 94db at 3000 rpm.  using magnaflow mufflers no cats.


Cheers

Ed
