The reason a car sounds deeper with a catalytic converter instead of a test pipe is because it adds volume to the inside of your exhaust. Replace a big cat with a small pipe and it will have a higher pitch.
Sort of like a beer flute. Full bottle=higher pitch.

OK! say I put the cat back on and keep the 5zigen pipes and get a new muffler. Is 2.5" better than 2.25" and is mandrel bend better, also with or without resonators?
I really want to know how to make my exhaust really deep so I can set off car alarms?
PS. Its not ghey its comedy :chuckles:

Ok maybe a little ghey but why do so many people do it?
ps. I wasn’t asking if it was ghey or not, I was asking how to make my exhaust deeper.
I don’t care what you say I still think its funny.

You can get a universal muffler from most places like Apexi. With your setup, size really isn't going to make much difference, neither is mandrel or crush bent piping.
I guess some people like the fact that their friends can hear them coming from 3.2 miles away, but.. one day... you will see the annoyance and ridiculousness in this.
