Jerm Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Ok i got a 1300 in my car with the standard pea shooter... looking to put the 1600 in very soon.... i think i am going to get my extractors and 2" exhaust system on befor ethe engine swap.... it won't be a problem that the head sits a little higher on the 1600 right? there will be enough play in the exhaust to compensate... right? And as far as exhaust goes was just thinking about 2" all the way through and one of those big wide galvanised straight through mufflers.... you know not round like a coby but wide.... is that going to sound ok? to loud? cheers J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerm Posted March 17, 2005 Author Share Posted March 17, 2005 nah i think one mufler will be way to loud... just got soem prices.... probably be around $450 which is more than expected... to fit extractors, 2 inch system with two mufflers.. and just going to have a black 3" tip which will look mean i reckon. And Leon... wasn't yours at Als like $150? thats a steal that same women just quoted me like $600. which is steep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid around $650 for a 21/4 through including, new extractors and a new muffler and 3" droopy.. but then again, shit's heaps cheaper down here!

Yea stainless is like double the price... it'll last for loong time tho. Im looking out for one of those chrome dumpy mufflers at the moment, if anyone has a used one they dont want, or knows of one, i'd be keen to buy it.

Gaz Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 those flat type mufflers if you are talking bout the sport type ones are expensive. i got one with a 2.5 inlet and outlet for the FX and it was $260 muffler. Sounded real good tho. Not excessive loud and droony. but when you put ya foot down you hear it. Quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 my GF bought me a beautiful dynatech stainless muffle with a 3' droopdog on it... but it wouldn't fit droptank and traction bars were in the way. so gutted. sold it to my flatmate for his RX3 so not a complete loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
