RSK Member 340 Member For: 17y 4m 7d Gender: Male Posted 10/03/09 12:17 AM Share Posted 10/03/09 12:17 AM I had a custom tune, got the centre muffler made up with straight pipes, took it back to my tuner just to be safe and it was running leaner, so it did need a retune.

They replaced it with a 3" pipe but needed a slight bend and put a flange on it....sounds great, has the burble of a v8 lol no drone. even the exhaust guys were impressed... I think it defiantly needs a tune though, feels a lil flat low down... but its all good because my car is booked in at c&v Friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno why it sounds different though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is with two new flanges so I can return it back to stock if needed. Does this sound reasonable?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this sound reasonable??yea it is mate. the flanges are not cheap plus theres the bends so its a fare price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another guy tried to tell me it was a real hard job and would be over $300....but then again he was trying to tell me it would increase power and the cat wasn't the restriction, so as you can imagine I left quickly after that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
