Cubpak - what do you have done to your car to be able to "chip" it at 70?
nothing done to it its stock
i have a k/n redneck ram air
its also got the overdrive trans possibly the e40d or the t6
its got a really high rev limiter on it
high flow air intake to the multi port injectors
its an 05 sherrifs interceptor cam from texas
i maintaint it very well
its got the aluminum drivshaft also 4wheel disc brakes high performance racing brakes all the way around i splurged when i had to replace them about 6 months ago
16 inch steel wheels
boxed frame that is under the whole car not just half the car like most cars are today
i will do some research on the trans type

I've had mine in for almost a year now. It's definitely broken in by now. The video was taken right after I got them installed, so it's a little louder now.

Starting up from a cold engine makes the idle sound REALLY loud for a couple of seconds, then it quiets down. When I rev the engine I don't really get any loud noise, it sounds more quiet than anything. It's a deep tone, so it doesn't seem to sound loud at all when the engine is at high RPM in park.

And just to be clear I only have 1 cherry bomb extreme. It's a single in/single out, and I run a Y pipe after the muffler.

your pipe size has alot to do with the tone your going to get. my honest suggestion is can you use a hack saw? if you can slice out the cherry bomb sell it to somebody and slide in a peice of pipe on summit raceing theres some butt joint band clamps that work really good slide the pipe up clamp it down leave your cats theyll give it some muffling and less crackles with you small diameter pipe. and you might make 20 bucks more than you spent to mod the exhaust by selling the cherry bomb
