hi there,

my engine swap is done (heavy built 350 ~ 400+HP) and now my car is still very loud.
Exhaust setup:

hooker shorty headers
carsound cat (just to quiet it down ;(
front to back 3"
first off I had a hooker max flow but that was just too much
then we installed a summit muffler but it still has 100db at idle!!

I'm still a hooker fan, do you think an aerochamber could help a bit? heard that it is quiet at idle and has not that much resonance in the interieur...

I live in Germany, and the cops don't like to see such loud cars so I need help before they catch me
greetings

dynomax ultra flow.
oval case.
quiet as you are gonna get.

I know this isn't related but do the chicks dig the car in Germany.

wow thats crazy that ur car is still that loud!

i would think that a hooker will still be somewhat loud.. maybe not as much at idle but will scream up top.

same with flowmaster 80's. should sound mean on a built car

i would also look at the ultra flo from dynomax. they flow extremely well, and are somewhat quiet.

hmmm, maybe it is that loud because of the single pipe. I think the exhaust gases reach really high speeds in there...

It may rumble when I am above 2000rpm...but at cruising speeds it should be more quiet. What a pity when the aerochamber also is that loud in this range.
With the dynomax I still can hear my car, right I'm a big fan of the deep sound, so I thought Hooker would be a perfect fit.

@superGMman: not really. a f-body is some kind of exotic car over here, people without a clue also think sometimes it would be a vette.
in the early 80s the cars (overall the corvette) had a bad reputation to be driven just by pimps. But its getting better now. But there is a huge us-car community over here. the german TGO looks like that: www.bandit-online.de

the aerochamber would quiet it down at idle but it will still scream at WOT.. i a have a somewhat tamer setup than u (355, 320-350hp) and its not too bad at cruising speeds (2450rpm... 3.73s..hehe) but at WOT she screams.. and i love it

seems to be the thing I need.
maybe I will order the dynomax and the hooker and test it out. there is always someone in germany who like to have a new muffler on his f-body.

more experiences with the aerochambers?
greetings

That's interesting, pimps huh?

I remember this guy on LS1tech.com that was saying how American cars picked up allota chicks. It's cool to know that thers SOME people that like american cars(joke, no death threats please).

the most common comments here are the gas-guzzler jokes. all these wimps with their 1gallon micro cars...lol.





ridiculous!!

but it's hard now: 1.33€ (1,62$) for one liter gas.

This means 6$ per gallon!!! Tax and insurance not mentioned!

But I love my car, so I'm wiling to pay that...even if it makes me poor

Greetings

I hate those little European cars. They're TOO economical, then again $6.00 now that crazy I can understand why they are there. Good luck with the Po Po's

I just suck em in and hammer them out on back...what else is a Double pumper and a 3" exhaust for
