If the car is not loud enough you can always have a custom mid pipe made or you can either cut your cats or resonator.
the tips come off on a tanabe?

i also recommend the invidia midpipe. like toker says it has a nice deep tone to it. i mean if your driving at normal local speeds of 35 mph it sounds normal, but the second u step on the gas pedal down, its instant beast mode. the car just growls. nothing too extreme. u for sure will be noticed, but in an appreciative way im sure. ahahhah

supposably u dont need to worry about it passing smog. from what i heard you should be able to pass with no problems with the invidia pipes. i haven't needed to do it so I cant tell you from experience. But my installer n everyone I asked says so... sooo i hope they are all right when I do my smog check
