    I'd just go with a straight pipe instead of the rear muffler. Cheap, easy, won't attract too much attention.

    The wreck I picked up and drove home lost it's back box along the way, and sounded sporty enough without being obtrusive.

    ...so this is a no-go?

    I kinda want it to look nice under the back of the car... I put a straight pipe in-place of my rear muffler on an EB Falcon I once owned when I was unemployed hahaha

    Exhuast manifold and down pipe + cat off off a 2ltr.

    Then get 2" system with hot dog and high flow rear muffler.

    Make sure you get a good muffler to give it the rasp and zang.
