Thinking about running straight pipes...

[Kiaser]

I've got headers, no cat, and TNT mufflers. I'm looking for a louder sound. What can I except if i ran straight pipes from the headers back? Will I lose too much backpressure compared to what I have now? HP/TQ gains or loses? Will the sound but a lot louder? Will I cause valve burning over time or any damage?

EXPECT alot of attention and tickets from the cops, and alot of ********** neighbors/friends. My guess.

Check in my media section. I've got a clip of the car (and sound) under full accelleration.
It's fun ! Wouldn't want it on a daily driver though.

I had straight pipes for around a week.........my ears are still ringing.

Do you have a Gen II? It sounds freaking awesome on a rear-exhaust car. I can see it being too loud with side-exit, but it's wonderful on a rear-exit. The best sounding Viper I've ever heard ran Henn*ssey headers and 3", catless Henn*ssey exhaust all the way back. Badass.

I run catless and muffler delete through a rear exhaust with the original resonaters, sound is loud but not illegally loud unless I'm really getting on it. With the windows up at highway speeds it comfortable.

Corsa cat back, no cats, Belanger headers, SC = Nice sound. You have to take it easy in your neighborhood, but she sounds sweeeet under a bridge.
