Just got done putting on new dynomax catback and converter

Me and my buddy from work just got done putting on my dynomax catback and highflow cat, WHAT A PAIN!!! its near impossible to get the I pipe over the suspension and all we barely got it over took us 5 hours after work and its not even loud!! i might end up throwing a hooker muffler on it........ just a warning to anyone considering Dynomax

That's the one thing about dynomax, they make some of the best flowing exhausts, but they're pretty quiet. (Well, that is unless you have bullet mufflers on it, then that's a whole different story)
I would suggest putting the hooker aerochamber on there, IMO they are the best sounding mufflers. Mark should be here soon to back me up on that, won't you Mark?

Of course..

By the way did you raise the car up and let the rear end drop, this allows more room for the I-Pipe.

i put my dyno max cat back on last week.... how the hell did you put in the pipe from the cat to the rear without taking off the panhard rod, and without jacking up the car?????????? i did the job by myself.... took me 3 hours from start to finish... only thing that i ran into as a MAJOR problem was light.. i did it at 8pm at night.. but you're right... its not loud at all.. but it flows great. i didnt weld anything up .. cause i tend to change pieces on cars alot... i might get a Flowmaster.. and just bolt it up..

I have the Dynomax cat-back and I like it a lot. It's noticable at idle, and VERY noticable at WOT

It's not what I would call Hill Billy style like your looking for.

I know. Why don't you get a WEAPON R!!!! That way you and the Ricers can sit at the stop lights and rev the engine so that everyone looks and thinks your car must be fast 'cause it's soo loud.

I'm just giving you ****. Just a simple way of hinting around that loud exhaust went out with DURAN DURAN!!!!
