New Header and muffler~

What have you guys used and what works best? Time to do something with mine since my muffle took a direct hit from a rock and popped a hole in it! I did a search but most replies were from 2009 and I know something has changed in 3 years!


I'm not going for anything loud at all, quieter the better!


Thanks
Woody

I'd go with an OE style muffler and still use a LCE header. I doubt it would be too loud with a cat and quiet muffler.

It will be louder without one than with. And you shouldn't get rid of your cat and pump poison into the air for no reason.

Dont get rid of the cat. If anything just upgrade to a high flow cat.
