Long time lurker, first time poster. Want to say hello to everyone here. I have got a lot of useful information from browsing this forum!
Anyways, I just receintly crossed over to the dark side "aka bought a ford..heh" and picked up a 93 Stock LX. So far, I'm loving it.
It had a O/R H-Pipe and flowmaster mufflers. I'm not sure if the flows are 2 or 3 chamber, I'm gussing that they are 3s. I love the way it sounded.. deep and throaty and as the RPMs increase it got louder and meaner sounding all the way up to WOT. The only thing I dislike about it was the fumes from not running cats.
Since I use the car as a DD I deiceided to install a magnaflow (2) cat 2.5" H-Pipe to fix the fumes. After installing it the fumes were all gone, but so is the sound!!
It still sounds ok, but muted. It lost all that deep aggressive sound. My question, what are my options to get a louder deep throaty sound back? While running the catted h-pipe. I was thinking about modifing my flowmaster cat back with different mufflers, but I'm not sure if that would be worth the hasle... Any suggestions? anyone in a simalar situation and have sound clips of there catted setups?
Thanks!
