Any way to make this set up louder?

I currently have stock down pipes with a nonresonated AA Single mid pipe, stock muffler, dahler valve controller. I went with this mainly because I wanted the stock exhaust sound to be a bit louder and it’s been amazing. Is there anything that can make this set up even louder without ruining how it sounds?

Thanks!

I am running the same setup, but with a SST valve controller. The 25th, I am putting 300 cell downpipes on. I’ll report back the outcome. 🙂

Changing downpipes to more flow design will greatly increase volume

Your main issue is the unresonated midpipe. You can try resonated downpipes but I think anything else changed is going to introduce too much resonation (a bit like drone) into the setup. Good thing about that is everything is reversible, so you can try it out and go back/sell the parts if you're unhappy.

I think changing the axleback is a bad idea with an unresonated midpipe.

i personally would get catted downpipes or switch the axle back

but if you want to keep the stock sound, the better option might be to switch to the equal length midpipe as its louder than the single
