Hi guys!! Im super comfusrd wth just happend here...

Long story short, I got long tube ARH, its a full system that bolts all the way to your Axel backs,

So the thing is, after installing all that, its LTH, with a beefy X pipe from ARH a 3inch pretty much to my Borla sport mufflers and guys the car is very quiet?? Why,?? It was legit louder with my MAk cat deletes that I had. Now its super quiet, it only get loud when I go past 4k rpm,

Has this happend to anyone? Is this normal? Im so shocked that its this quiet even tho its catless too lol,

I have both catted and catless lead pipes on my ARH headers. It's much quieter with cats on my Krona. Significantly louder without cats. Still pretty loud above 5k rpm.

what zelek said, if your new stuff is catted it will quiet it down considerably

Trust me bro, its the catless arh full system they bolted on directly to my borla s type mufflers, when im shifting normally, you dont hear the *gasp* when you clutch in which sucks, what axel backs do you have??

Its the catless full long tube system...and its so quiet..
maybe just the mufflers then? i know i went to longtubes catted with a corsa sport and double h pipe and it was too quiet with the sport mufflers so i swapped to the extremes and much better

So i would have to seap the axel backs then, makes total sense, but i would see so many videos of the setup like mine and it was so loud i was disappointed not heari g the gasps between shifting lol

yea sometimes videos make it seem much different depending on what microphones are being used, i know mine sounds different than any video i saw for sure but im not disappointed once i switched to a little bit louder muffler, the sports were perfect for my buddy who was catless and extremes were perfect on mine catted so the mufflers do make a big difference

Most likely it was just over expecting the sound to be super loud jaja but Im thinking of getting Borla ATAK, do you know if those are really loud? Or are they ehh?

Check your mufflers for foreign objects. Ie: potatoes, towels, etc. Anything people who live near you may be able to stuff easily since they all probably hate you...

I'll take your quiet mufflers if you want to get rid of them. I have long tubes, magnaflow resonator and stock mufflers. It is quiet, could be a little louder.
