baffles

[iwannadie]

so i have an exhaust with removable baffle, its nothing fancy but i like the exhaust. it has a decent sound with and without the baffle.

with the baffle its pretty quiet but loud when you get on it and has noticable low end power over stock.

however without the baffle it looses alot of low end power. it really sucks because i love the sound without the baffle. its Way loud but to me sounds more like a muscle car than normal loud rice exhaust.

also without the baffle the car shifts So smooth(auto). you really cant even tell your shifting, the power just stays smooth. with the baffle it shifts horrible, jumps and over revs.

whats with the baffle effecting shifting? its a real tuff choice to make, but i just cant give up the low end torque :\

The baffle is primarily for noise reduction, unfortunately it also reduces performance. If Arizona doesn't have any laws regarding noise being emitted from the exhaust system of your car, you can leave it off.

Here in California, the law is like 95 dB a short distance (I think its 10 feet) away.
