Default Exhaust Help

Ok...Here's the deal....I had just an Aerospeed muffler on. Got a ticket for that. So I've got court next week and I'm tryin to get it all dropped. So I went to get it changed to stock. And while I was there, I asked about 2.25 in piping all the way back. But I didn't have the cash to do all that. SO the guy "hooked me up" and ran 2.25 for the rear quarter section. But he said instead of runnin it to a stock muffler, he'd run it into a "turbo" muffler. So I said ok. I was thinkin "Turbo muffler......better airflow.....ok...." So I did it. And they but a 2.25 in tailpipe on there, which doesn't look stock at all.

So now, its basically just as loud as my old exhaust, which was really loud since I had a small hole in my pipe. I want horsepower without all the noise. And well to top it all off.....they forgot to mention that there's a little turbine inside the muffler. And well..........it sounds just gay. SO.....what do u guys think I should do?

1. Leave it
2. Swap out the turbo muffler for a stock one.
3. Have them take it off and remove the turbine and run a smaller tailpipe.
4. Any other suggestions.

PLEASE help me out. I seriously want to know what I should do....

If your ticket said "defective exhaust" buy a silencer. when the judge says did you fix it, jsut tell him that this peice of metal turns your pipe into a stock sounding and feeling, including emisions tail pipe.... they hear the word stock, and you fixed it. and i got mine dropped i had the bomb series arospeed muffler. and still do.... with the lil silencer. cops dun look twice

i ASUME YOU GOT A CIVIC YES? JUST INVEST YOUR MONEY INTO A FULL CAT-BACK EXHAUST SYSTEM. THAT WAY YOU CAN SWAP OUT YOUR EXHAUST SYSTEM IF YOU GET A TICKET. nOW IF YOU WANT A REALLY QUIET EXHAUST, GO WITH THE DC SPORTS TCS EXHAUST SYSTEM, MY BUDDY HAS ONE AND ITS HELLA QUIET EVERYTIME THE RPM GOES UP AND ALSO GAINS POWER AS WELL.

EBAY should have a good deal. Its a all stainless steel piping down to the muffler. I use to Work at DC sports, delivering parts for them 4 years ago. whenever I fly back home to Cali for familiy visit I visit them cause also my best buddy works there. Their company is down the block from me. And am gonna kick it with them on Sept for Nopi Nationals.
