I did and it's a whole different system under load, gives the car a more "race bred" type sound. Still no droning, gurgling and popping I've heard on other systems though.I think from memory the $850 was a one-off not to be repeated however $1,250 fitted still represents good value for $$.

The CAT I blown apart the less then 2 weeks. So yeah Get a better CAT.Sound alright, not too loud at all.Best Mufflers were saying to change the Dump To a 4" instead of 3" as 300+ the 4" is needed.Cheers GC Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21759-xforce/page/2/#findComment-321833 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, $850 is how much you should be paying for the mild steel system.Either way, Bestmufflers does provide Awsome service, Chris has done a number of exhausts on my car and I have never had any problems. I recieved a bit of attitude from Croydon when I called them for information (over the phone), so id be saying stick to Best Mufflers if you are in syd.

Let me be a bit more specific on my previous post. I was running the std dump pipe with the 3" dump pipe back system (including the same cat you get on these systems now). I had that setup tuned to about 270rwkw before we found that a larger system was needed. At this point the system was upgraded to 3.5" and the time pipe is a custom split pipe, however a 4" pipe would be more then enough for over 300rwkw.
