Tubi Rumore Louder???

I have had the Tubi Rumore for about 2 years and I want it louder. Has anyone fitted a SS X pipe or straight pipes to the Rumore mufflers? Would there be back pressure issues? Post video if possible?

Are you deaf or something?
Seriously... you have only the mufflers?
I guess you get more sound out with just changing resonator to x-pipe than OEM mufflers to Tubi Rumore...
Get full exhaust all the way from engine...
headers, race-cats, x-pipe... oh and you already have the Tubi Rumores

No I'm not deaf...yet! I did find that up until recently any rumore setups ordered in the US came with the regular tubi center section "silenziata" which has resonators. I guess now you have the option for the Rumore X pipe (similar to the SS x pipe) I will probably give it a try and see what happens...I'll post vids when its done...

Just take off your Tubi setup and mail it to me. Taking off your exhaust will do wonders for creating more noise.

Can I ask WHY you want it so loud?
Sort of loses the whole "stealth factor" IMHO

Agreed! I LOVE the Tubi sound! I was addressing the OP's initial statement that the Tubi Rumores weren't lound enough! My Dinan cans sound great to me, but they are pretty quiet in comparison...besides, I had to consider the "wife" factor (will be interesting to see if I can sneak a supercharger under the radar!)

Just wanted to clarify

Get headers and do not do a chip upgrade. The beast will sound and smell like a cigarette boat.

I have had the Tubi Exhaust and I recently installed SS Headers. I got my car back from the indy on a Friday and had the PC ready to install, so I thought. Many problems later, I did not get to install the PC Flash until Tuesday or Wednesday of the next week. During that time the car sounded wicked. You could smell how rich the exhaust was and performance was a bit lacking, but it was almost worth it.

After a while with an exhaust, you definetly get used to it. Happened to me with the magnaflows, I can only imagine the Tubi's. Well I have an X pipe as well to add to the noise.

Totally understand... Dinan cans are stealthy but once you opened them up then...music to my ears and +1 on the wife factor
