    I have a 2015 optima I've done the same delete with, (though mine has dual exhaust) So the mesh after the cat is called the resonator, and it's the only reason our cars sound any good, because it removes the midrange garbage sounds. I dig your choice of wheels, I use 17" of the same wheel, they look great! If you upgrade to a high-flow cat, you'll get a lot of the cool pops and crackles this car puts out, as it's ignition and fuel maps are similar between the turbo/non-turbo models the non-turbos still have the anti-lag stuff. trust me it sounds amazing when you're down-shifting. Thanks for the video, you got a new sub

    Love this channel! I have a 2015 Optima 2.4 EX Luxury model (just put a new crate motor is it at 130K). I never did any mods to it, I was afraid of messing up something that was already pretty nice.. Until I saw your channel. Just for the start, I did a muffler delete, replaced with 2 (I have dual exhaust) Flowmaster Delta 40s with dual tips. Replaced intake to K&N Typhoon short ram cold air, and added a OBDII JDM Performance chip. The muffler shop gave me hell on my muffler choice, but, they apologized after hearing it. I recommend it, DEEP tone and pops and crackles. They asked ''What size engine is this?''. This is just the beginning. On the outside, im keeping it stock.. other than the sound, you'll never know what ill be running. #Sleeper

      I took mine to a nearby muffler shop. Just search around you on Yelp or Google for a well reviewed muffler shop and tell them you want your muffler removed and a section of pipe added where the muffler used to be. It only cost me like $65 if I remember correctly.

    • @KDMCurt

      There’s not a huge difference but I did notice the throttle response was a little faster. Possibly due to the increased airflow through the pipes but it could have also just been it seemed a little faster because it was louder lol

    I just bought a 2020 Optima S and what I found strange is ALL the single exhaust Optimas there were on the lot. I previously had a 15 which had the dual outlet as well and don't remember seeing single outlet Optimas. I wonder if theres a reason why Kia went to single exhaust recently. Personally I think it looks aesthetically bad.

    • @KDMCurt
      @KDMCurt  Před 3 lety

      Technically straight piping shouldn’t void any warranties as the manufacturer would have to prove removing the resonator or muffler would have caused damage needing a warranty repair. Search up the Magnuson-Moss Warranty act on Google there’s some interesting stuff about it. Haven’t noticed any drops in mpgs everything seems the same. When I drive in eco I can get like 30-35 mpg and in sport like 20-25. The lowest I’ve ever gotten was like 18 and that’s because I was driving it like a race car haha!

      It shouldn’t, but Kia can be picky about this stuff. So technically to void your warranty a car manufacturer has to be able to prove that whatever mod you did to the car damaged the car in some way or made it not run correctly which would cause damaged over time. Check out the Magnuson-Moss warranty act on Google.

      Yup, factory exhaust too. The only thing I had done was the muffler delete and resonator delete and then I added the custom exhaust tip.

    • @KDMCurt
      @KDMCurt  Před 4 lety +1

      Just keep the muffler after the delete so if you don’t like the sound you can put it back on haha. It’s kind of one of those things that you won’t know until you try it.

      KDM_Curt real question do I gotta put on the exhaust or can you leave it like the way it is when u cut it off?

    • @KDMCurt
      @KDMCurt  Před 4 lety

      Kyre Pyro you COULD just cut off the muffler but then all your sound is going to be echoing under/inside your car. The straight pipe that is welded on where the muffler was is sending the sound behind the car and out so I’m not hearing as much of it inside while I’m driving. So it’s best to add a section of pipe to continue the flow of sound but it’s not absolutely necessary.

    • @kyrepyro8666
      @kyrepyro8666 Před 4 lety

      KDM_Curt true would it sound the same like still nice?

    • @KDMCurt
      @KDMCurt  Před 4 lety

      Kyre Pyro probably so, the section of pipe added shouldn’t change the tone of the exhaust just the direction of sound.
