Question Louder Muffler!!!

I was wondering what is louder, the APEXi N1 Natural Aspiration version muffler, or the Arospeed Bomb series. If anyone knows which is louder, please reply!!!

I have a solution. It involves your current muffler and a hand-drill.

the arospeed bomb muffler is alright, but its loud raspy sound is annoying as f*ck... oh wait, almost all mufflers on a 4 cyl sound like that.. anyways just unbolt your exhaust at your header and leave it at that, or go buy a header with a b-pipe then your talking LOUD!!!

Not all Exhaust's are like that. The Greddy's are hella quiet and so are the ES Oval Type Mufflers.

Why do you want a Loud Exhaust? Sorry maybe I am just Anti-Ricer I like to keep a clean quiet Exhaust granted my exhaust is louder then it was after I put in the high flow cat but it is a clean sound like the Spoon Exhaust or the mugen twin loop.

Ok, did you skip the main word i my sentence? "ALMOST all mufflers..." notto mention not everyone is willing to spend $400 on a muffler. and even so, i have heard some exensive mufflers sound like shyte on a 4-cyl. but im not knocking ALL mufflers. just the majority of them.

To tell u the truth the loudness is coo when u race......But when ur just cruising and u just hear that loud ass noise at the same pitch everyday it does get annoying.......get one with a silencer then u can choose either or!!
