^ That sounds pretty nice from inside
Magnaflow cat-back tho?? A couple local guys have that w/o header & cat, and it sounds too bumbly bee for me
So either the bumbly is hard to hear from inside, or the H&C makes a big difference

It does sound great. It's not raspy or "bumble beeish" at all
I was surprised that it ended up sounding so good.
added another resonator/test pipe (16") now my car sounds like what i wanted. It is not loud crusing it sounds a little louder than stock. I will try and get a good sound clip.

Wow.......just a word of advice......get the BIGGEST resonator you can if you plan on upgrading your exhaust. I filmed my car from the outside today for the first time and I must say it sounds like a$$. Way too raspy for me. It's been said before and I'll say it again. Your car can sound sweet on the inside (mine), but it can be a whole different ball game on the outside lol. Save yourself time and money and do it right the first time. I'll post a clip as soon as possible so you can hear what I'm talking about.
^ I need to find someone to drive my car for me, lol. I'm wonderin' how mine sounds from outside... Shouldn't be too bad IMO, it's stock exhaust w/ the muffler cut off and a cherry bomb in it's place

That's a good question, I didn't really think that one through. Darkstars posted videos too though.

I know mine are vids too
A lot of peoples are actually. In my case, I don't know how to do just sound on my camera (if it's even possible), so that's why they were vids. Didn't feel like using an editing program to drop the vid portion either

Here's a couple of mine
Out side car, sorry bout the radio.,
inside car window up,and
long run 85% throttle with window down.
My set up is(in exact order it is installed): OBX Stainless header, Carsound stainless 2.25" highflow cat, thrush 24.5" glasspack, low kink(installer took extra time making sure pipe had smallest kinks possible) compression bent 2.25" pipe, Flowtech After burner chambered mufler with stainless resonated tip welded on end.
Sorry bout the mic quallity didn't realize it was that bad.
Got a couple new vids of mine. Current set-up is Cherry Bomb w/ resonated tip on stock pipe. It's only idle vids from about 10ft away and than 2ft away
10 feet away
2 feet away
I don't know how to do non-vid with my camera, so yea. BTW the exhaust doesn't seem like much, but it was actually rattling the doorknob that goes into the house

I have a 03 ecotec with a weapon r 4-2-1 header, a highflow cat, and a magnaflow fart can, I also have 2 1/4 stainless pipe from front to back, its the most bumble bee sounding thing on the earth, I dont have a sound clip but yall can take your dads or your own weed eater and remove the muffler, perferably a 2-stroke one, start it ur and hold the gas wide open, its kinda like that

2.25" pipe

stock manifold (until Header is welded on)

BTW - the buzzing on that second rev is my WAI intake. For some reason it buzzes on the top end of the revs. It's not loose. It's just resonates.

WHy are you using the stock resonator on your car. I would have a smaller diameter than what you intalled.

ajose - I'm not 100 percent sure about the exhaust. I bought the muffler with a 2.5" inlet, took it to a muffler shop and said I wanted 2.25" pipe ran from the cat to the muffler. After they put it up on the lift they tell me I already have 2.25" pipe and suggested I just get the muffler welded on. I believed him because he could have made more money off me, but didn't. Then I gat under the car to see how bad it was going to be to attach my muffler and see that there was fresh welds in front of the cat and that the cat was completely round and read Hi Flow on the body. There was a resonator after that, but looked like a large round style you see on cat back systems. So, in short I'm not sure what the last owner did. I guess they redid the entire exhaust and then took the muffler and header off when they sold it. I think there was a header on because I was missing two manifold studs on the right side.
Here's a clip of my old exhaust:

My new setup is a lil deeper with the Magnaflow muffler. I will try to put that one up when I get the time to record it.
