+190 Having a loud muffler on your car/motorcycle doesn't make it any better. It just means you're an obnoxious person who cries for attention. amirite?

well first off, don't you think it's a little ironic that someone named boohoo should be writing about crying for attention? secondly, you obviously don't understand the dynamics of a combustion engine and what more airflow and exhaust does for power output... i.e. the noise is a byproduct.... so obvioulsy you don't know shit so post something you know about

I gotta agree with ya. They aren't obnoxious if its for power. But that being said I will contradict myself right now and say the ones who don't need exhausts are those little shit hondas and acuras those cars are retardedly irritating with exhausts. Too damn high pitched if you ask me. Wrxs and lancers with them low growls is where its at

Does it make that much of a difference in power that a quieter muffler can't be used? I mean the noise rattles my dwelling and at 2 o'clock in the morning. How much power do you need in todays world?

yeah sometimes you cant control the muffler sound that well. its actually more expensive to keep that thing quiet.

Actually, the mufflers/pipes on STOCK motorcycles (including Harleys) are relatively quite. No louder than stock cars/vans/SUVs. Some are even quieter. Most people that buy them though, get aftermarket mufflers and pipes JUST to make them louder. Do they do this so the person next to them in a SUV won't run them over? No. And I know this from having several friends that drive them and hang out with a bunch of Harley bikers. They do it because it is "cool" or you "can't have a bike without having it be loud and mean".

Right it just sounds like you are too poor to get yourself a nice car. When I was 18 I had a cool Mustang Mach 1 https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f4/1971_Ford_Mustang_Mach_1_(14564760649).jpg Now that was loud and there was no question it was fast I love my prius almost silent.
