Sure does jetute, exactly what I was after, thanks mate (and thanks rogers too for trying to upload the sound file)!! :spoton:

Oh yeah, I'm assuming you have hotdogs, right? That's definitely the way I'll go, but I'm intrigued by ENVY-T's comments - surely yours must be considerably louder without the 'dogs?! And don't you suffer a bit from drone if you're cruising at the 100-110km/h mark?

Sounds like a goer then, round 3452314523 with the wife comin' right up... :spoton::thumbsup:

I can't comment on what it sounds like with the dogs, but I don't have any drone at 100-110 kms. Maybe the slightest hint of it at 60-65, but I always drive around in perf mode, so I don't get it.

After hearing Anthony's exhaust on the weekend, I thought it only fitting to start making a few mods on the car.

Removed the center muffler and replaced it with dual mendrel bent 2 1/2 stainless steel pipes.

Completed by Dandy Exhaust Centre. Great job done by Viney....

Apparently I should get around 50-60kms more on a tank as well as around 10% more power with the muffler restriction taken off.

Great note too......

:lol:

Sorry, forgot to add. Be very careful with the cat mod as you may find your car's boost spiking due to a huge decrease in back pressure and forcing it in to limp mode. It is not an issue when modding with piggyback or flash though.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I take it you are only taking about when the Cat is removed/changed? If it is just the centre muffler taken out, I believed that the boost spiking wasn't a problem?

Hi Guys got the centre muffler removed today sound great, but HPF said that although it should not make any difference to the tune they want the car back before Heathcote just to run it up and make sure all is ok :innocent:

I just replaced my centre muffler with hotdogs last Friday. Out of curiosity, I also had before and after power runs on the dyno. Overall gain at the wheels - 2kW and 10Nm.

Not a big difference, but the sound - oh baby!!!

Any chance someone can post a sound of what the car sounds like? or even some comments on how loud it is inside and out.

Unfortunately- in NZ - it is hard to see and hear someones car who has done this - nobody seems to be doing it!

Cheers
