I think I'm just gonna spend $110 for a Borla muffler & a polished tip and get that installed. I just want it a little bit louder.
I guess I'm just going for sound...not performance. The car is never gonna be fast....unless I turbo or supercharge it....and that ain't happening.

Is a Offset IN/Center OUT the type of muffler I need though?? Just wanted to make sure.


Why don't you just buy a polished tip, and take it to a good exhaust shop and tell them you want a 2 1/4 catback setup with a turbo muffler. They should do it for not much more than what you are gonna pay for the Borla muffler alone. At least around here that's the way it is. One of my friends got a catback on his for $150.00, and that included the muffler and tailpipe.

I'm in southeast Michigan here.
They like to overcharge at the local muffler shops, and not too many "peformance shops" around.

Yeah I guess I'll go get some quotes then and have some cash in hand.

What size piping is the Ecotec exhaust? Go with 2.25" I assume?

It's a '03 LS Sport (stock) muffler with a polished tip at the end. That what you're looking for?
I don't have any pics of the rear of my car.

It'll be at least a week until I get a new exhaust put on, but if you can hang on...I'll sell it to you cheap.

2 1/4" is a good size for n/a. but if you are not looking for performance and want to keep it from being to loud you could try 2" pipe. It will probably be exactly what you ar looking for.
