Venom "cat Pipe" Vs "dump/cat" Pipe

[Jake F6]

Initially on the FG F6 I removed the centre muffler section, and went with a single straight pipe. I had to take it back to the exhaust place immediately as it was too loud, and I got them to put a hotdog on.

After putting the hotdog on in conjunction with the Venom cat pipe I think it sounds good, and without any drone. P.S. the car makes 327rwkw.

On my previous BA XR6T I removed the centre muffler section, and this sounded very nice without the need for any hotdog, this had the standard cat though and was running 250rwkw.

I say give it a go!

So you recoment the venom cat pipe over the dump back pipe

in my case it would be , stock dump,venom cat pipe in to stock 3inch, center muffler removal then stock twin 2.5 inch back

good choice?

[Jake F6]

I'm not saying that I recommend one over the other, but one is sure a hell of a lot cheaper.

I'm running 327rwkw through the system that you have just described - and could go higher.

In my opinion, yes it is a good choice, but you may definately want to consider a hotdog in the middle section to keep it more civilized.

Yeah don't think hot dog will be too quite, it's pretty much as loud as straight pipes just not raspy and tractorish. It does still sound a bit horrid when it's cold but once it's warmed up it's fine.

By the time you've done this you've spent $700 think if you want more power later on maybe $1200 on a full exhaust now might be worth it.

well at the moment im running no mufflers on stock dump and cat, and sounds.great but on cold it is very raspy

Im considering something like this. I dont have the cash as yet to go a full system and all the jazz. Thoughts?

That sounds sh*t, good luck trying to fit extractors on a turbo too..

As far as FG's go if manual replace the center muffler with a hotdog, well worth the money and sounds good (except when cold). If auto catback is the bare minimum for a decent note.

its actually not over loud and had a nice note

[rbjet]

I know mines a BA but I've only got the rear muffler and it's loud as sh*t. Can't imagine how loud it would be with the rear one chopped out too.

on fg falcon when u take mid resinator out they are still fairly quite,
