comptech exhaust

I have had my comptech exhaust for about 4 months now and I getting very annoyed with it. The exhaust sounds exactly like a 89 Cavalier with rusted out muffler when I am at low RPMs. Once I get into RPMS above 4500, I love the sound. Any ideas what I can do to have that sound all through the RPM band?

I agree...I am tired of the droning that is typical with aftermarket exhaust from 2200-3000 rpms. I have been contemplating getting the silencers from comptech but I don't want to lose the sound all together, just make it a little quieter in the lower rpms.

comptech is already so quiet, but sitting at the back would be loud

I'll be happy to take them off your hands, Brad.

By the way, I'm coming back to Omaha/Council Bluffs to take a driving class for my speeding ticket in the next couple of weeks. Anything to do out there?

Open track days?? How much is it? I would LOOOOOVE to drive on that track again.

Not for sure yet what date; they only have a driving class every two weeks, and the next one is this Wednesday which I can't make. The next one is early August, but the deadline I was given was August 1. I'm trying to talk to my lawyer about an extension. If I can't get it, then I'll have to leave tomorrow for Iowa to make it to the class on Wednesday.
