Default I need more sound!

I currently have PPE Headers with a Joe z exhaust/ Joe z intake pipe. I absolutely love the sound. is there any way i can make my car louder ? or is this the loudest it will get with a good tone?

Buy the HKS exhaust and midpipe for sale by Darbs in the classifieds. It is a sick sounding exhaust. He also has Novel headers for sale if u have deep pockets.

LOLM3 is selling those parts, not Darby
OP, since you have a Joe-Z exhaust, you can try hacking the resonator or even the mufflers.
I wouldn't though.
I have Sikky headers with iss qes...and that's loud!
I suggest switching up your exhaust for something less daily friendly.
Or purchase Darby's injen intake on the classifieds: that thing is loud.

I thought I was the only darbs on here....

straight pipes = NOISE, although I have no idea why you would want loud over a Joe Z PTS System.... I have had quite a few girls go for a ride in my F and comment about the exhaust note. But one of them, out of the blue says, "All you hear guys who like cars talk about, is how good their exhaust sounds. Most of them are just loud and stupid. Now this car, it just sounds sexy." Plus it makes 20 wheel for everyone, takes insane track abuse and Mr. Z's customer service is among the best we have. Hopefully PTS will step up and release some RCF headers to match their new exhaust... Something they turned away from with the ISF.

Hey Darbs, FYI if you know of anyone with an RCF that wants a free set of headers let us know. Sikky needs one to scan in the engine bay. We will be the ones doing the removal and install of the OEM headers. It would be a two step process so someone relatively close to MD would be ideal. Spread the word! We would need the car for about two days the first time around then another two days to test fit and dyno the prototypes. Have anyone that is interested reach out to sales@jeimportperformance.com

I would say add an intake like K&N if you are looking for more sound.
