Option #1 BB Route 66 exhaust





Option #2 No Mufflers

No mufflers will give you the full exhaust note. I'd just be concerned about getting pulled over for a ticket every time I went for a ride.
In the end, the choice is yours. And you can always change your mind and do something different later.

#2 if its legal. #2 sounded a little rough at times. #1 was OK at the beginning but kind of got garbled toward the end.

Yes I love #2 also but since I had the Cops called on me today I put back on my exhaust........ BTW the cops were called to my house because my dogs were barking........... lame. This is the 3rd time wtf do I do about dogs barking its natural. So since the cops were called on me about that I knew from there to put my exhaust on. Going to try to get a hold of some bullets though.

Not to be a *** but you need to spend the time and train your dogs better. You are in control and you set the boundries. I have a pitbull and a chihuhua very well behaved and obidient becuase I put in the time and dedication. I would call the cops also if I had neighbors that let there dogs bark non stop especially at night.Not saying in your case but just saying in general. Good luck and find a good trainer you and your dogs will be much happier in the end.

To the OP I have the same catback and wished it was a little louder maybe cutouts would be a good choice for us.
