I am in the market for a new cat back system and I was wondering what sounds the best. I had a full 2.25 magnaflow cat back, magnaflow high flow cat, with pacesetter headers with a custom 2.25 inch down pipe. . . that sounded like GARBAGE. The car sounded like a pissed off weed whacker.


So before I make the mistake on my 05 2.2, I wanted to know what you guys like.

I'm looking for something mild at idle, but when you get on it, you can hear her scream. I have been looking at Pacesetter and the GMPP, and I know theres tons out there. Anyone got any suggestions, sound clips?

I have a magnaflow can on the stock piping and ive gotten alot of positive feedback. Check out the vid in my sig and see what you think.

sick06cobalt

your not seeing any gains though..... not with the stock piping...

tsudo,

go to youtube and search cobalt tsudo and youll find the clips on a 2.2. IMO its the nicest sounding exhaust for a balt

07SilverCobaltLS

i have the vibrant sounds great to me

I have the GMPP touring. It has a nice deep tone to it. I describe it as a throaty purr.

I can just barely hear it at highway speed, so its not annoying on long trips.

I have megan pipes from catback with a magnaflow muffler. Sounds really deep tone to it. Like stock but deeper

This car's not worth spending $500 on exhaust.

i have the dc sports cat-back and it sounds pretty sweet

i recently helped a guy put on a full exhaust, he has the zzp header/downpipe and gmpp catback. not sure which one. but it sounded pretty damn good, it was the nicest 2.2 i've ever heard. was very deep, a little grunt at idle, but almost stock sounding as far as volume. you can really hear it good when you get on the gas though, but still its not crazy loud. that's the setup i would recommend for what you're looking for.

GMPP... I have mine for sale actually. $300 shipped. Sounds amazing. If I were you... I'd invest in a Stock SS/SC downpipe though. My SS sounded BEAUTIFUL with the stock DP on. Gotta have that cat in there.

it may sound great, but it's extremely restrictive.

i have my full 2.4 exhaust system for sale.. the car back is cut before the axle and the rear o2 is a bit stripped out.. which both can be fixed.. pm me if you want any of it.. it'll give a good sound and decent gains for you

and you're close enough where we can meet up instead of shipping


or i personally love my setup zzp header dp midlength combo and tsudo cat back

You can have mine for $300 shipped.

A Chevy dealer is PROBABLY going to charge you somewhere around $650 to $750... depending on how much they mark up their parts. CrateEngineDepot sells it for $545 plus shipping.

NOT TO MENTION the fact that mine comes WITH the tip... and both the Dealer and CED you'll also have to buy the $50+ Tip.
