How does it sound on ur boosted car? i'm looking to run one w/ no cat/res.


I ask because i had this muffler on my built N/A car last year (straight piping) and it sounded raspy (it sounded like complete **** to be honest)

thanks

 

Sounds great IMO. Not loud and raspy on my ride.

 

just deep any throaty, no rasp what so ever.

i'm 2.0 with 3inch from turbo back to the magnaflow. all mandrel bent.

 

What size Magnaflow was this (meaning body size/shape), and what exhaust housing on the turbo?

 

You normally dont get a deep tone with a straight pipe on an NA car...If you wanted that deep tone you would have need either a cat or a resonator.

 

I don't remember which one it was but it was somewhere in the middle of the options.

turbo exhaust housing is .82 ar

 

I had one on my car and despite the fact that everybody said it sounded gread, it gave me only headaches and I ended up selling it (the whole 3" SS KTeller)

 

i had the long 5x8 oval and it sounded really deep and good and now i have the short 5x8 oval and 3in alum. exhaust and it still not that loud..

 

92 vx b16a-760hp-460ftlbs on 34psi on q16 dropped a valve 10.16 at 147mph

thats alot of power for a 10.16?

 

Good info!

I had the 5x8x18 on my car in a 2.5" in/out, and it sounded great to me. I wasn't sure how it would sound in a 3".

Until I find the time to build my stronger bottom end, I'm stuck with a 2.25" Dynomax on the car (with a 2.5" inlet on it) to make enough back pressure to keep my boost creep somewhat in check. As soon as I can get the boostable bottom end in the car I'll finish the 3" system on the back half of the car where I have the 2.5" now. I have a 5x8x3 oval bodied Magnaflow and one of those ridiculous monster 5x11x22" ones that divides the flow into 2.5" tubes through the middle. I think I'll start with the smaller one because it's lighter, more packagable, and will probably be quiet enough.

Oh, the good sound of my 5x8x18" 2.5" one was with a .63 turbine housing on an SC61. I think the hot side of the turbo has an effect on the sound. I've read that people have noticed a lot more sound volume going from .48 to .82 or something. . .

 

when i ran that number i was only making 696whp,then i went for a retune making acouple changed and made the 760 and on the second pass it dropped a valve but it went 10.5 on wastegate.

 

Short 5x8 Magnaflow 3" sounds good on my car. "Save Target As" and ignore the blower whine. It'll be a bit quieter on a turbo car:

I have a 3" exhaust from turbo to bumper with the magnaflow oval muffler and a magnaflow resonator. I love how it sounds not raspy at all and pretty quiet. I haven't had a problem with cops yet...just sounds like a nice honda exhaust....as long as you stay out of boost and vtec of course
