Test Pipe Questions
This may have been covered before but i cant find the exact anwser. See im thinking of getting a test pipe installed on friday,but before i get it what are some of your thought on it.
Does it make a very raspy sound, and the reason im not getting a high flow cat is that i cant find one for a reasonable price.

Oem headers, my custom test pipe, straight pipe to 2 2.5" flow through magnaflow muffler and I only have a rasp at a certain rpm, not a loud rasp but its their. With oem exhaust and test pipe I don't think u will have a problem

It could get raspy, it will smell like shit. If you dont mined the smell go for it.
