I have a magnaflow catback exhaust i wanted to switch it up looks wise and bought a bigger muffler rs type n1 but kinda afraid it will sound raspy any input would be excellent before i take my magnaflow muffler off and swap it i love the angled look and planned on doing that but i dont want to sound ricey so please give me feedback on this

"don't want to sound ricey"

bought a n1 muffler and wants to angle it out

contradicted yourself a whole lot there bud.

i too love the angled look...the thing is cars do that to reduce the amount of bends in the exhaust plumbing...i'm sure your exhaust scomes up over the axle, and to angle it would add in 2 bends where right now there are none.

if you have a cat, it probably won't sound raspy.

Yea i actually rethought the whole angle setup just gonna go straight out now yea i did contradict myself a little but my magnaflow tip isnt shining anymore and i want it to look good again and n1 is ricey? Thought it was just cheaper stuff ......

N1 style muffler is gonna be raspy

I have an OBX-R muffler from an eagle talon tsi cat back, lucky for me, I got the angled look,
pipe doesn't come straight out of the muffler, its angled out of the muffler

And best of all, no rasp

its a bit of a misconception honestly.


Rasp comes from using a massive exhaust with no resonator/cat on a tiny 4cyl. With out 2.2L as long as you keep the cat and the resonator you really wont get rasp with any type of muffler.

Did you try just polishing the Magnaflow tip? No reason to spend money on a new muffler if all you want is shiney.

nRRe

they aren't called 'fart cannons' for a reason.

i had one on my old 02 lancer with a 2.0 4cyl and it wasn't raspy at all, but i had stock cats/resonators still, if you have those it will give you a nice tone to it. the intake on my lancer was louder than the exhaust once i got into high rpms.

i thought about putting one on the cobalt but decided to just do a muffler delete and keep the stock tip.

Well I tried shining the magnaflow tip but I also like the 4" tip I get from the n1 but idk I only spent $15 on the n1 but I may just put it on my wife's cavy and leave my catback alone

nRRe

in the end, it is your car, and you should do what you think looks good.

me personally, i love the angled n1 look. i love it on evos, stis, s2000s, anything, i haven't really seen many cobalts do it, but i'm sure it looks fine. I would do it if i was gonna do a muffler, we'll see once i put in the catless downpipe how it sounds if i want to put in a muffler or not.

completely stock exhaust, ebay straight through muffler. if you are catted with a resonator i'm sure your muffler will sound fine
