    custom silencer?

    well since the cops are hunting those down with loud mufflers. since my kinda muffler dont come with a silencer, i wanted to make my own. and is it that hard to do?

    doesn't that defeat the point of getting a better exhaust?

    well it does a lil. but it cancels out the sound.

    and i tried making a silencer with a food can and a pipe. that shit didnt work right. it made my muffler louder.
    what other options are there?

    turn your stereo up louder so as to make it seem like your exhaust isn't so
