i had a after market exuat but damn speed bumps put a hole in it so i switched it back to stock even though it sounds 2 times as mean with the hole iin the exaust

If you put the stock exhaust back on then all the free air you released from the engine (intake, cold air or short ram, headers) isn't escaping as freeley as with the performance exhaust. Even getting a bigger muffler (I have two) will help that air escape more and probably make your car function a little better (not to mention sound). Just curious what exhaust did you have? Magnaflow is the absolute best for saturns Flowmaster is good too (what i have). I'm gonna get a titanium muffler with around a 4" diameter tip. I was gonna get an arospeed one but the titanium will be lighter.

i cant remember my dad tossed it on there so my car would be a tid bit more agressive sounding b 4 i got the car so i cant remember the car is a hand me down and what is a good magna flow exaust system and what kind of money should i expect to spend and power i am getting in return

i heard when on 4 cylender cars if you go over 3.5 inches it looses everything the exaust is supposed to do as in power and aggresive sound i dont know for sure if .5 of an inch will kill it all that bad but from what i heard try to keep it to 3.5 or lower i was talking to my dad b4 i got the car it was at least had 155 horses so i no it is not that much but he still swanted a lil hustle with good gas millage you know how it goes or i hope you understand

2.5 inch is a fairly well tuned exhaust for a saturn

2.5 is good. 3.5 is only necessary if you have a turbo kit with a stage two NOS system or something.

keep in mind, to big of a pipe will reduce torque.

I got a 4" stainless steel muffler off e-bay that was advertized as titanium,
it has the blue colored burnt tip.
It looks cool and will give me that sound I want,
but it comes with a REMOVABLE SILENCER! (it goes inside the 4" and makes it 2.5")
I can get it installed for the looks, and easily fine tune the sound and backpressure.
Yes less backpressure on a small engine means less low end power,
but expect increased performance on the top end when you need to push more exhaust through it

hope it works out my friend has a 99sc2 with a apc muffler it sounds better then my cat back on my prelude

i found that 2.25 is best especially if you lower the car. you could have a problem clearing the rear axle if you go bigger. plus its loud to begin with.
