How much louder is the Hi-flow cat than stock?
What about the addition of a down pipe? This would be with a greddy EVO2 catback. See, my wife said no more crap done to the car. If she can't hear it she won't know.
Thanks

I went from stock to the Ultimate Racing 3" HFC and it sounded the same. I already had a 70mm DP and 3" CB exhaust though so it wasn't exactly quiet in the first place.

LOL, let her know that the mods aren't "crap" they serve a purpose and the parts you get will be of high quality and well made.

Just do it...if she says, "Wow honey, your car sure sounds louder, did you change something after I told you not to?"
Just say, "Nope".
What's she going to do, crawl under the car?

I got the same exhaust with Test pipe and downpipe. Its not significantly louder at idle, the real difference is at WOT.

I added a Helix HF cat with the Helix downpipe and HKS exhaust. Sounds the same as when I had the stock cat on.
