it's seems to be telling the me that you get a more sporty sound by doing this mod. The reason I say this is cause I have it done to my car and not much of a difference in sound from stock. |
Are you sure your welder did it correctly then? This mod is supposed to allow a partial bypass of the exhaust from the cats straight to the tips of the muffler. You should have gotten a very noticeable increase in sound.

you did the mod.. if so was it loud like terrible or a good sound..?

you should definitely feel the diff in sound, not so much performance.
ive been trying to this forever now, but cant seem to find anyone that can bend the pipe that small of a diameter. its would be the same without the pipes if you were to just drill a hole in the pipes without connecting it to the tip(s) |
do you think i should add the bypass pipes as well? Maybe that added to the sound. What do you think boxtaboy ?

Also, keep in mind that the cat bypass pipes are technically illegal to install (even if you pass emmissions testing), as altering your emmissions system in any way is not permitted, and carries serious fines if noticed. If all you are looking for is race car like sound, just buy a Borla, GHL, or B&B cat back exhaust. That'll do it. Or, just modify your muffler to a bypass design. The sound will be noticeably different. |
so like my orginal post where the two pipes go into the tip is good enough? That isn't illegal is it? I am going to have the place look at my exhaust again and see what they can do.

I am thinking your muffler shop didn't really do the muffler bypass correctly. If they actually made pipes that go from the pipe connecting the cat to the muffler tips, the sound increase would be definitely noticeable by you. |
i think the guy who did the work made have not welded it good enough i think i might have a leak in what of the points of contact. I will keep you posted on what happens.
