Well judging by some reading I've done on this forum, the intake would only make the car sound a bit more aggressive while including some gains?

I have a Secret Weapon intake, which I've had for some time now. After doing some reading, I have come to realize that the "award winning dual tube velocity design" does nothing for our cars. After I get a muffler, I'll slap it on and see if my car gets any louder, if not, I'll keep it on.

i recommend a custom setup, from the cat-back.. a muffler shop should be able to fab something up pretty easily. i'm running an APEXi can with no resonator or silencer, and while it is LOUD it's not unbearably so. a good glasspack resonator and straight thru muffler may sound the best.. stick to piping under 2.5" however..

what do you think of the TRD muffler?
