anyone ever ran straight pipes on a cavalier?

I was watching Monster Garage last night, and i saw they had a Scion xB (the boxy one). They fired it up with straight pipes and it sounded pretty mean. I was just wondering what a cavalier with a 2.2L might sound like.

that sound is so annyoing man put your muffler back on. it's a cavalier not a damn civic. my friend ran straight pipes on his sunbird it sounded umm... lame. so yea, just get a flowmaster muffler or somthing like that that will make it sound just fine.

I once had a '00 Cavy and ran straight pipes with a Monza tip on the end of it. It was cool at first, but I got so friggin annoyed with it, then I put a regular muffler back on. It sounded SOOOOO much better.

My Cav has the 3.1 and I took out the cat and knocked the muffler straight inside. It sounds really good but we are talking about a V6 compared to the 4 cylinder. For the most part 4 cylinders that go straight sound like a hyped up dirtbike.

Not the sound you want. LOL.
