I was talking to someone at work about spending $1000+ on aftermarket exhaust and he said "just drill some holes in your muffler if you want to change the sound."

I have never heard of this. Do people actually do this?

I think their are tips available that deepen the exhaust sound..

That doesn't seem like the best of ideas. And it would change the sound but not the back pressure.

Don't suppose you are familiar with carbon monoxide

If all you want is noise it should accomplish the job. Might also consider resonated tips.

SKareKrow

Do you know who makes resonated tips?

make it sound like a rattley old honda probably.

It's an old trick that a lot of guys used to do to their stock exhaust when they were low on money. That's if they planned to throw away their stock exhaust down the line when they had enough money to get a real exhaust. Doing that is like having an exhaust leak.

An old friend did that to his 86 MR2 - it had a low bass tone, with an exhaust leak "after taste" sound when he lifted off throttle. Do it to a beater, not your A4.

I'm sure all the major tip manufacturers have them, Pilot, etc..check out muffler shops too

drill some holes in your seats and doors while you are at it.... it will make it better
