If your under 26 it sounds cool & over 26 it gets annoying. It is nice to be able to here your stereo without blasting it or talking on the phone. Cool factor 8, I bet you could do nicer things for $500 than put a noisey exhaust on it. You will never be able to sneak up on anyone. Add a GPS or DVD setup. Buy newer clothes.

by putting just a muffler on your car, no you will not notice any performance change. you might as well spend the 400 bucks for a world sport 2 by apexi. one of the best sounding exhausts made. but, thats just my 2 cents.

For what you want, just drill a hole in the muffler.
