The car is also on a hoist but I still can't get it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samcaula13 Member 17 Member For: 12y 3m 16d Posted 12/05/13 04:06 AM Share Posted 12/05/13 04:06 AM (edited) Hey guys,Got my center muffler removed on Friday at Fat Pipes through a mate. Didn't cost much - they did a tidy job - it's on an FG Manual sedan.Love the sound of it at idle.Seems to drone between 1500-2500 RPM depending on the throttle (up hills you can hear it).LOVE the crackles and pops between shifts and on engine braking (sounds flemmy haha).Unsure what I think when I'm giving it the business. Just sounds 'louder' - nothing more. That's not a bad thing - but with the sound differences at idle and shifts, I kind of expected a different sound - but nope, just straight XR6T but louder.Really good value for money - way happier with the exhaust note now.For the record - I have noticed zero performance differences. Doesn't feel slower or faster at all - just, louder.I'll try and get some audio or video up in the next week or so, just in case there's one more person left on the planet who isn't sure on this mod.

Pesaveng88 Member 23 Member For: 12y 6m 19d Posted 27/03/14 11:49 PM Share Posted 27/03/14 11:49 PM Hi All,Sorry to bring up an old post, but was wondering, which replacement pipe would be better for a sedan for no drone? Dual 2.5" or single 3". Don't really want to put a hot dog in if I can help it. I am after anything better than stock, but not attention seeking. Coming from a VX SS 3.5" loud sureflo system + Extractors, I was pulled over more times I can remember (even on way home back from exhaust shop). My G6ET 50th gets back from repairers soon (stupid woman on phone in new Audi Q3) and decided to start with a few mods. PW street intake + plaz muffler delete pipe.Any help is appreciated,Regards,Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
