If you have the money, invest in a completely reworked exhaust setup. For the 335, HKS, Vanguard, and Eisenmann are awesome choices, all with their own character and power.

You can get exhaust tips from Cyba. Just look in the vendor section or PM him.

This is incorrect. Tips DO make a difference. I have a PE on my 335 that I had the stock PE tips taken off, and I put the STOCK 335 tips on, and it made it quieter.

TO OP

Larger tip = deeper tone, double wall = quieter note then single wall. Trust me. It may not be a huge difference in sound but there are differences with each tip and they ARE noticeable. My not into cars roomate even said "is this quieter" with the stock tips.

i personally like the DiMisa tips, i think they are really cool looking and have an angled edge. they come in 3" and 4" tips.

some places will say that i changes the sound, blah blah... i dont know how true it is. it does but change how it looks and thats about it.

+1 it's a placebo affect if you can hear a "difference", changing just the tips are purely cosmetic.

Lol... Yeah your exhaust tips, aka a couple of inches of metal at the end of the entire exhaust system can change your exhaust tone, no.

The only way that I think tips can affect sound is if the existing stock hole diameter of the pipe that exits the exhaust is bigger. If it is bottlenecked and just the tip itself flares to a larger opening, nothing would change at all.

Maybe on the stock exhaust but there are a few of us that have changed the tips on the PE system and it DID make a difference. Mine is just more quiet in general, and a tad deeper. Anothers was a bit deeper and a bit louder.

People can say all day it doenst do anything. I had 3 people hear my car with the PE before tip change and after and all 3 agreed it was quieter.

I changed the tips on my PE system as well, it makes a very noticeable difference. I've been a part of another thread discussing tip/sound change recently and Dimisa said this. "Replacing exhaust tips does enhance exhaust note, any tips that is. The larger the opening, the more throaty the sound. By way of example, think of a saxophone versus a tuba. It's simple sound/audio architecture, really."
