Hey ive got a 2.5" lukey catbak system with 2 mufflers...
Excellent note... but not LOUD enough for me. Ive heard that people drill holes in their muffler, etc and it makes it louder. can this be done? (as a temp fix until i replace rear muffler with straighthru piping). |

don't6 go drilling intop your mufflers, instead have one of them removed and try with only one muffler! Or replace the second muffler with something less restrictive like a hot dog

yeah, deal with it till you can drop a muffler. i have only one and it is sweet.
and if you only just got it, it will take a couple of weeks to really open up. I was disappointed with mine at first, but now it is great!!

how loud is only 1 muffler?
within legal limits? or would that require 2?

Yeah I got my Lukey 2.5 about 3 months ago now.
I also had the same concerns about the db limit and I have been through many of booze buses and I have never been in any trouble, actually one cop said it sounded good hahaha. I only have the centre sports muffler in and its a cat back system, and its has a very sweet note when driving around the city holding the revs at about 1200rpm, real 5 ltr ish. Yet to get extractors but I think it will be too loud.

my old exhaust, 2.5" dont know what, was so loud it used to drone but i think that the muffler shop damaged my muffler!!
but yeah, one muffler will definately not be too loud, i have heard a car that only just passed the sound thing, and mine is no where near!!
