Re: Which exhaust should i go with??

I don't have a vid , but mine is dumped before the axle with a dynomax bullet race muffler and its too loud, I will be redoing mine back to over the axle with 2 21/2" outlets to reduce the sound some.

Re: Which exhaust should i go with??

I run 2, yeah. But one is a race muffler for a diesel. No cats.

Re: Which exhaust should i go with??

i doubt i could do that cz of emissions lol

Re: Which exhaust should i go with??

Nope. I don't have emissions, and when I do, my shop does emission testing.

All i currently have is a 2 1/2" dynomax muffler with 3" magnaflow tips. Im getting my headers put in this weekend and my original idea was just to go with the headers and change the intermediate and over axle pipe to 2 1/2" since its still 2 1/4". i already bought the headers, and pipe but now im thinking of just dumping it all before the axle with a borla xr-1 and getting a turndown put in? opinions? im looking for it to sound better (deeper tone)

personally I would leave the 2 1/2 because unless you have force induction then you will need some of that back pressure. However if you decide to go forced induction i would run 3 inch there is no need to go any larger unless you switch to a V8

Jeeps use a 3 inch Cat and they are high flow cats too they will not hinder performance and keep you legit

Re: Which exhaust should i go with??

thats why i havent gone 3" because i read before that you needed atleast a little backpressure.

I'm running straight through, at 7000ft. My car runs just fine.

Re: Which exhaust should i go with??

well dropped it off to the mechanic today hes charging 160, also recommended changing the oil pan and the gasket bc mine was bent from hitting something and was leaking oil...total bill for everything including parts is 410, 160 for the headers, 120 for the oil pan fix and 130 for the oil pan and gasket. Costing alot more than i thought lol

Re: Which exhaust should i go with??

Gawd... you mechanic is cheap. I was told 700 for install only on headers, and the gasket alone for your oil pan is $45..

it may run fine to what you are use to however unless you try different things and have the car on a dyno how do you know what is the best??? after all this is what i do for a living.

Re: Which exhaust should i go with??

Never touched a dyno. Never been tuned. I have pipes, and everything else is stock... after I get deeper into the car I'll worry about the small amount of power difference I would have.
