How much louder is the car? What do you need to change on the pcm so the check engine light does not come on?
Thanks
I've got Pypes violators outback. SCT SF3 tuner, JLT cai, 3:55 gears.....thats all right now. Thinking about OR X pipe.....not sure yet.
I cannot reccomend violators and an offroad X. I know different strokes for different folks, but I think it sounds terrible. I can't WAIT untill I am sure there will be no more snow so I can take off my violators/X and put on my longtubes/x/Stingers.
It will sound pretty damn bad ... Obnoxiously loud, but bad.
I can't wait until I get the Kooks or American Racing longtubes and than my car will sound like this ...

I couldn't stand living long term with the volume of that exhaust, but I LOVE LISTENING TO that set up on someone else's car!! Sorry to sound stupid, but do the longtubes work with cats or are they o/r only??

Which one are you talking about, my current setup or my future setup? And do you mean bad as in bad or bad as in good?
I have also heard that longtubes quiet the car down a little. As far as I know though the Stingers will be louder than the Violators. Maybe it will even out. We shall see.
About a month ago, I went from the factory manifolds/Pypes O/R H and MAC mufflers to Stainless Works 1 3/4" LTs/SW O/R X with the same MAC mufflers. Before, it was insanely loud in the car and too raspy for my taste at various RPM ranges. After the swap, it was MUCH quieter in the car and the rasp is gone! I don't know if it got louder outside as the sound is much deeper, but it does sound sweet!!!!!
Hmmmm...Did you break into the 12's yet?
Thanks! I didn't feel much in the butt dyno (need to get it dynoed again before I change CAI to see what the LTs did), but they must have done some good as out of my first five passes that day with full interior, three of them were 13.2s with the other two passes being 13.3s. I figured being .22 away from my 12.99, I went back to the pits and took out the passenger and rear seats. My first run after that was my best of the day at 12.922! I'm not quite sure why the MPH was so different between those two. They were run just over an hour apart.Congrats to you, i remember you had been trying but didn't see you post a thread about and figured I would ask. 108 is a very nice mph, with just hte addition of longtubes did you notice much difference? I ask because one timeslip says 105 and one says 108.
