how to put it :D car has a deep note sounds like it has balls now no resinator into a lukey turbo muffler ill run it that way for a month and work out if its too loud or the cops work that out for me. difference well the motor seems to rev easyer and my foot is higher on the "go baby" pedal, its not as loud as a cannon or as tinny i think of it as about the same as a club sport in note and volume just less cylenders $280 fitted with 2 year warranty on everything.

I've got extractors with 2.25" mandrel bent piping to a hfc and lukey straight thru, no resonator, the cops dont mind it, when i dont rev it that is. i cant stand it tho, damn carline.

Pete, what is the muffler worth on its own? Is it straight through design? Im looking at getting one for my car.

in all honesty there aint much diff b/w mandrel bent and press bent for a N/A car. the only thing really is mandrel bent is gonna last longer on the bends compared to press bent (less rust holes forming). on a turbo charged car mandrel bent all the way.....

I also have a full 2.25 inch system with no resonator into a redback megaflow sports muffler, also have extractors. Sounds DEEP (not ricey) and goes heaps harder than standard (nothin special). Got mine done with a new flex pipe (excluding extractors) for $270 and it was a 1st class job.

ill check the docket (left it at work) but i dont think it has the muffler price on it i can get the model # if it helps stole this link from carline on what i had fitted http://www.carline.com.au/turbo.htm, to bad the exhaust guy dont look like the chick in the pic, the muffler was picked by JJ (exhaust guy) as i said im looking for it to flow not the note

I had mine done at the same place as justin, 2 1/4 from the flex pipe, but with a lukey straight through instead of a redback. All installed for $200 :shock: Sounds good, goes harder above 3thou, and ive driven past many cops without getting anything more than a funny look :)
