I need help
in my country it is illegal to have loud exhaust sound for a street car. and i am planning to add headers X-Pipe and a cat-back.
is there any way that I can get the performance of headers, X-Pipe and cat-back without having a loud sound?
is there any quiet cat-back system? or maby another solution?

If you need it absolutely quite and you still want an exhaust you could try the corsa touring...but they do not work with headers because of the resonators.
I would for sure get headers and skip the exhaust if i was in your situation...cat back wont give you much hp

Headers will give you the same power gain with or without an aftermarket catback exhaust. The OEM exhaust is very efficient, it's just too quiet for those who like a deeper/louder exhaust sound.
