What is the loudest most obnoxious single muffler?

Like the title says. What's the loudest, rudest most obnoxious single pipe exhaust I can get? Something that will fit right behind the cat inline with the 3" pipe. I still want the dual pipe but don't want the muffler under the tank. The local council has decided to put in more speed bumps and take lanes away from busy streets to cripple movement. I know where the idiot lives so in addition to lighting up the tires in front of her place, I'd also like to destroy her neighborhood with an incredibly loud car at 3 in the morning. I'm done calling and filling out petitions. Now I just want to be as big an @zzhole as humanly possible.

Get a glass pack. Heat it up thru driving it then when hot spray water in it to break up the glass.

Install an exhaust cutout. That way you just flip a switch between quiet and obnoxious.

I mean, loudest, most obnoxious is easy, no muffler. It's also less expensive. Win/win!

Re: What is the loudest most obnoxious single muffler?

Cutouts are probably the way to go. Personally, I never light up the same rich people neighborhood more than once but there really is no replacement for the satisfaction you get from their angry scowls during the daytime.

Re: What is the loudest most obnoxious single muffler?

I had a single 6" black widow neighborhater on my car for one week before taking it off, absolutely unreasonably loud. I couldn't justifiably drive it on the street without feeling like a scumbag lol

Re: What is the loudest most obnoxious single muffler?

I had mine mounted back in the factory muffler area so there wasnt much pipe after it. I never took it on the highway, it was off the car pretty quick

Re: What is the loudest most obnoxious single muffler?

Horsepower makes noise, not exhaust design. I have mufflers and cats, but a true dual exhaust behind 600hp is enough to wake the dead.

Those cheapo ebay fart can mufflers that kids put on their Honda Civics are pretty annoying.

^This is it. No muffler is the loudest "muffler". An expansion or trumpet termination may be a little louder but I can't imagine that you're willing to put in the work for this cause. No muffler is cheap, easy, and louder than any other muffler.

Whatever this is on my car. (Just bought it) It is not driveable it’s very obnoxious. 496 stroker, hooker headers into 3”pipes to dual monstrosities on each side. Wanna raise someone from the dead? Wanna make someone dead These could do it.

Given your TGO member name, those are probably Hooker big block swap long tube headers for 3rdgens. They dump into 3" collectors and run down each side of the car. Looks like small race bullet mufflers too. Without cats and real mufflers, I'd expect it to be loud.

I think you are 100% correct. The guy who built the car passed away so I am constantly trying to figure out what is actually there.
