not so loud exhaust...
im new to the forum and also new to the whole monte thing. i have an 04 supercharged ss. i was wondering if i could put a u bend delete and a high flow cat on and keep the stock exhaust? if i did this would my check engine light come on? or if i cant do this, what exhaust do you guys suggest? i want something that sounds mean when i get on it, but not an annoying loud hum when im on the freeway. would the slp exhaust do this? thank you in advance for all of your help!

RE: not so loud exhaust...
hey dan, let me welcome ya to the forum!
Ill do what I can to help you by telling you what Ive done on my 3.4:
Ubend delete
Resinator Delete
Y piping and dual flowmaster 40's
I love mine because just cruising, you dont really hear the exhuast 'till you get up to the 3500+ RPMs. It makes it very quiet for when you have cruise control on (becuase your cruise puts your RPMs at about 2/2.5k), or creeping through your town. I also gained a good amount of power to switching to new mufflers, much more than me running on the stock one. Im sure there will be a member to help you even more... but, my 2 cents, dont be too afraid of switching out that stock muffler, you will only see gains!

hey, thats exactly what i have done to mine, well i have
high flow cat, u-bend delete, resonator delete, and kept the factory mufflers, its not too loud, just has a nice little rumble to it, but if you want basicly no noise, keep the resonator or dont put a high flow cat on and that will keep it with no noise

Yup. You can do it at an exhaust shop for about 25-40 bucks or you can buy a full downpipe like I have for sale (shameless plug) and get a huge performance gain while staying in emissions and keeping the sound down.

if you want a good sounding, yet pretty quite exhaust, get the dynomax cat back system.
