Been looking at a Redback 63mm [2 1/2"] Sports Exhaust System but was wondering if any has or has HAD one and what they thought....the only that i didnt light was one tailpipe but i know there are ways around it...but yeah the exhaust it self im just wondering what they are like..

I cant speak for the full exhaust, when i wanted a louder note i just replaced the rear muffler with a high flow Lukey. Only cost about $150 and sounds pretty nice.

Well i love my audio and i got 2 very nice subs and i didnt want something that was going to overshadow my subs so thats why i decided just to get a straight through rear muffler as opposed to a new system, and i am happy with the results.

the redback has nice note and not overly loud, as for the one exhaust tip that you dislike, you can always get the exhaust shop to weld a new on on there for a little extra if you don't like the one redback has on there already, when i had it on my TF, i got a little better performance and better economy as well due to the less restrictive muffler and lightly larger pipe diameter.

As Mike has said. You might as well get the whole thing done while you're at it. Otherwise if you want to do the rest later on you'll pay even more :)

As for the redback system. It's got a nice sound all round, probably a bit too quiet for my liking but, the quietness is mainly just up high in the rev range (probably due to the large rear muffler) - It's got a nice note down low.

Mine has the MagnaFlow rear a bit louder than the others but more prone to drone if you worry about that.

Hmmm, you want it loud but you don't want it to drone? What the, what the?!?!

I say just go for the redback, it's got a nice note. If you want it louder yet just get a muffler cut out :P
Or if you want to have a loud car and don't care about your exhaust, just get a muffler cut out of the middle as it is. Might sound a bit tiny though :P

I took a video the other day of my gf driving off in my car. It sounded fine in real life but she didn't gun it so there's hardly any sound. But my system is: pacemakers extractors, 2.5 inch flex pipe, magnaflow 200cpi high flow cat, redback 2.5 inch cat back, rear redback muffler replaced with a lukey high flow because it's louder than the redback rear muffler. I'll have to get a video of the sound

Magna_Chick
30-08-2010, 02:29 PM

Yeah I put a redback on my TH 3.5, (to replace a previous sports muffler) and she drives like a pearler. Grunty but not noisy. The startup sound from it is awesome.
