I am such a ricer.

My friend has an STi, and he ordered a nice exhaust system a couple weeks ago, and in the meantime, he took off his whole exhaust till his new one came. Muffler and all. So today we did that to my CL. Just took the muffler off i wasn't gonna keep it, but the thing is, i kinda like how it sounds. haha. its a good alternative till i can afford a nice exhaust, but i'm still thinking i'm gonna put it back on, because isn't it illegal to run with no muffler? i have a restricted license and i'm not trying to get pulled over when im not supposed to be driving for having no muffler.

your thoughts

FL no inpections ftw!, but drivin with no muff is def a pullover if sighted. i guess its only as risky as blu corners, but also that noise will attract attention.

i'll take a vid tomorrow. I'll also take pics of how stupid it looks without a muffler i was thinking of just putting the end part of the muffler up there to make it look like i have one, or just doing the wahsers in bolts on the resonator trick. or just buying a nice exhaust system too bad $ is an issue

would a test pipe to a muffler be as loud as it is just open, like it is now?

put your muffler back on. Then custom mod the muffler caniser by punching holes in it with a shapened philips head screw driver. Result, you will have a muffler on the car, and it will still sound loud. Make sure you put alot of holes in, ALOT.

Since when is running w/o mufflers illegal. It depends on the car. Srt4's dont come with mufflers for example...

in my 3.0 i unbolted the muffler from the axle back and it sounds pretty awesome. reason why i took it off is because its all fucked up (lowered ride height issues).

i dont see how that is rice.

muffler-less on a 4.6 or a 5.0L v8 is one thing, even a 3.0L v6 may be able to pull it off..

but a 2.2/2.3L I4? I dont know about that...
