Reidos Member 32 Member For: 13y 7m 23d Posted 22/10/11 10:39 PM Share Posted 22/10/11 10:39 PM Hey guys. I'm facing a dilemma currently. So I live in a small town of about 300 people and for a while, my car has been the loudest in town, considering the only other cars that could even compete were crappy vs commodores lol. So anyway, a mate of mine bought a brand new sv6 ute, and got some extractors and a quad tip setup. He had nothing on me as far as sound, maybe a little bit of burble but it was very tame. Now here's the bad part. He got rid of whatever he had and now has straight through J pipes. And now his car hurts your ears from 5km away. It is unreal how loud this thing is over say 3000rpm but it's so quiet at idle.What the hell??? I've never heard a car so loud. What are j pipes and how would they go on a BF XR6?I'm jealous :( sorry for the big write up.

I was worried my 4" system would be one of those but surprisingly items a nice deep note. Go for the nicest sounding, not the loudest. Quality over quantity. That's only my opinion though Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/77481-need-to-go-even-louder/#findComment-1152866 Share on other sites More sharing options...
