exhaust

hey everyone,
Right now I have a big bulky exhaust pipe/muffler on my car and really want to take it off, it came with the car. My question is Im assuming my inlet pipe is pretty big as the pipe has been changed to fit the muffler. So do I have to just measure my inlet pipe then just find a muffler to fit it? or will i have to change my whole exhaust? and how much would this cost?
thanks in advance,
matt

Well in that case, you just need to buy a new quieter muffler that you like. Take it to a muffler shop and they will cut off the old one and weld on the new one.

And make sure there is a resonator somewhere in the system, if there isnt, have them add one. It will lower its loudness dramatically.

yeah,
So most cat back exhaust will have the same size pipe so if I were to get a normal size exhaust that will just go on? I just want a smaller and quieter muffler.
