so a long time ago I put in an intake, pulled out the restriction of air flow to the engine bay and put in an “air dam” to bring more air to the where my intake was pointing. I also put in a test pipe for my cat and the car has a glass pack exhaust. These days this car is too damn loud. I pulled the test pipe but the sucker is still way to loud. My brother has intake (but no air dam) DC Header and DC Exhaust and his car runs more quiet at higher idle speeds than mine. What should I do first to quiet this teg down (the cat is already back).
I agree, the glass pack has to go. Im from the era of the Muscle Car where Glass Packs were the thing and man them V8s were loud. So I am sure yours is loud as well.
Im running a Flowmaster PRO 60 Series, but about to upgrade to the Flowmaster 40 Delta Series. I like Flowmaster because it doesnt have that high pitch Fart Can sound.

Magnaflow ovals are the same way… nice tone, no RICE.
I have one on my custom catback and its only loud if you really get on it at high rpm’s.
Well if you are going to downgrade, then move into the 60 series. Yes the 40 Deltas maybe louder, however, at the same time, the pitch is lower and deeper. Besides, something broke inside my muffler and I can hear it rattling in there when I drive…LOL I will let you guys know how it goes. Greddy Headers into Flowmaster. Should sound nice.
well I put back in the bottom half of the airbox thinking that would quiet the car down. Didn’t seam to quiet the car at all, but the funny thing is that I think the acceleration improved! Still haven’t replaced exhaust, but the loud noise really seams to come from the engine bay. Do different exhausts affect engine bay noise? My next move is to put on the stock air intake.
engine noise when at higher RPM’s. What sucks is the engine noise when I commute about 75-80MPH…
“VVVAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH”
unfortunately i can’t hop out of my car at 80MPH and tell you exactly where the noise is coming from. 6 years ago loud car was cool, now with a job where I drive alot and need to talk on my bluetooth it sucks.
i have a custom cat back on my 92 ls, is just a stainless ultraFLO muffler(bout it from a fellow g2 member) a 3in pipe goin to a 3 1/2 magnaflow tip and it sounds really good. not loud and not ricey, its got tone tho which i like.
