i plan to modify my exhaust system and wish to get some of your opinions and suggestions. my car produces around 200hp and its an NA. i plan to change the piping to a larger diameter but i have heard people say it will affect my cars acceleration. so now what i have in mind is just replacing the cat and join it up with piping. will it be noisy?? btw how much does it cost to do this?im on a budget of rm500. tq
-edit-
it has an auto transmission btw
theres difference wid changin the piping to larger BUT suitable diameter, and changing to larger but WRONG diameter .. changin to larger but suitable diameter piping shudnt affect ur car acceleration on d bad side..
for ur car, N/A, 200hp range should go for 2 - 2.25" diameter..
a CATalyst converter should reduce sound, so depends on ur overall exhaust system, the CAT / piping shudn't make it noisy, unless u get a sports/street muffler..
the price varies depending on where u go... But i dun suggest go Wei Yip or those single exhaust shops la... u wanna get a CAT, get a good one n u wun complain after installing hahhaa..
try Hot Bits @ Speedworks.. or ZENDEN from kent20 @ ZTH's Marketplace
RM500 shud be enough? maybe slightly more... do survey around la bro, take ur time..
