Hay everyone, im kinda new to car's and stuff. I don't know alot about them, just that I like to go fast and like the way they sound. But anyways, I recently bought a 1991 Toyota Camry and was wanting to upgrade the exhaust sound on it. I was wanting to know if I could just add a muffler to the end of the pipe and give it that kinda ricer tuner sound.?.?.? Could I do that or would I also have to alter other things like headers and cytilac converters????


any help would be greatly
appreciated


THX,
Josh

you can just add on a muffler at the end- no need to mess with the piping/resonator/catalytic converter.

You dont have to add another muffler 1st off. Maybe replace the stock one with a new ricey sounding one. But not add another to the one already there. You can usually find a cheap one online for around 100-150$ keep in mind you get what you pay for, and you can usually have a shop put it on for next to nothing. Keep in mind local state / federal laws. Some states forbid any kind of modification to the exhuast systems.

If your state isnt persay cali. There are boat loads of aftermarket cat back exhuast systems. They usually offer a much deeper crisps sound and can almost bolt inplace of the existing exhuast system. They can cost a pretty penny but it all depends on what your looking for or into. I for one like a deeper sound less ricey type. Afterall this is no honda....i mean rice rocket by anymeans

Ya, I was thinking I could just ause "shawzaw" to cut off the older muffler and replace it with anew to add the new sound..... Would that work? I have a welder so thats no problem. and I would rather do it myself so i can learn a little about it.. but would this work?

you need to weld it. Clamps wouldn't hold an exhaust for a mile. LOL
