Does removing the centre muffler give the xr6t more go?

Does the sound of the car without a centre muffler sound nice or is it just loud and droney?

:o

No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no. DON'T DO IT :o

I had a great T until the day I chopped out the C/Muffler the computer got Alheizmers all that lovely power disappeared and never got it back again.

Replace the centre muffler but don't discard it or your power will fade away like a slow leak in a bucket :spoton:

turbo4lt,

when you had the APS kit fitted, did you notice a significant improvement.

also, did you put the centre muffler back on again when you got the chip?

Hi Qiksmurf

I went straight to the Phase III kit which includes a full exhaust system , there was a huge impovement :spoton: puts a smile on my face everytime I drive it :lol:

Cheers

The fact that you lost power because of the ECU would suggest that it does enable higher power as a mod, and because of this the ECU automatically reduces the power of the engine.

This is a problem for people without an aftermarket piggyback chip, but if you have one and havent done the zorst it would be a good mod methinks :yikes:

Sounds like something I will do after I get a APS Stage 1 chip, and before I can spring the cash for a proper exhaust upgrade, kinda a part time mod.

Turb06,

If you plan to remove the center muffler, I would do it before you get the APS1 kit as they will be able to tune it with this mod. If you do it after you might find it will make the car run worse.

Justa suggestion :blink:

Can anyone suggest a good crew close to Fortitude Valley that can remove my C/Muffler? And APS Pete, can your Qld distributor re-tune my Phase III staright after this to ensure no negative impact on power?
