Don't know for a fact, but from the sound clips from the twin loop mufflers should be DEEP! I'm guessing that going from 2.25 x 2 tips to 3" x 2 would be a lot louder. Please let us know what you decide. I have been looking at the Ansa exhaust but I haven't been able to hear how it would sound on one of our cars.

as far as exhausts on RL's, there are a lot of them available on this site and google images. I would youtube them tho if you wanna try and find a sound clip of about what you are looking for. Good luck!

vipRL171

yea exhaust wise for rl i didnt find much at all for exhaust. so figured i would go custom. and i dont want somthing big and crazy just something nice and clean looking. and form the rl exhaust i found on youtube the exhaust doesnt sound bad at all for any of them on rl. so i kinda wanna get some sound lol

Big no! The RL need to have a bigger( longer) exhaust in order to maintain a pleasant driving condition. I had 18" Magnaflow and I took it off after a month. It's sound good but it is brutally loud. The reason is because our car only have a small resonator and there is no room to add a bigger resonator. I think you should look in to the 28"-30" total length from Magnaflow. This is my plan, if I pass the emission test next month lol
Or maybe you should remove the muffler and just run only the resonator. It is sound good!

Make it big and fun! Lol

vipRL171

^^ to big for me lol. but in my state its illegal for any shop to remove muffler. they have to be on the car. so exhaust im not really worried about loud my last car was pretty loud but sounded good. im just looking to get some sound and make it look good. lol

99blackhatch

Nice and mellow is what I'd like to have, but with a little flare... the picture above was for fun.

vipRL171

^^ yea i know lol. im looking to just have a decent looking and sounding exhaust so i will figure it out soon lol

vipRL171

^^ Do you have any pics of it??

3.5RLv-tec?

iTrader: (2)

Sure, I'll try to post the pic by tomorrow night.

Pro-Pilot

Excellent sir

vipRL171

Yes post pics may be interested as well

3.5RLv-tec?

iTrader: (2)

Here they are, it has been collecting dust for the past 9 months lol.
Both the muffler and the tips are from Magnalfow. It is funny because the tips cost more than half the muffler itselve.

I believe the tips are 13" long. This pic give you an idea how long is the tip.

vipRL171

do you have pics of it installed? i mean just curious. im acutally going to probally go with the dual setup cause it looks really clean. but curious as to what it looks like on the car.

3.5RLv-tec?

iTrader: (2)

No, I don't have a pic installed on the car, but if you want me to take a pic of my stock muffler with the same tips lol.

vipRL171

i guess that works lol something show the idea of it lol

vipRL171

well i went to exhaust shop today they said the dual couldnt be done with out pipes hanging down lol so waiting on jdmtom to send me a messege with a underneath pic so yours is still a possiblity. i mean on full stock exhaust will it be loud?

vipRL171

so decided to go a different route similar to that above. im going to still do oval tips cause i like how they look but im going to do a single muffler with dual oval tips. going to order a summit racing muffler and a couple 3 inch vibrant oval tips tonight and next weekend have it all welded up. will post pics when im done.

vipRL171

so here is the exhaust setup im going with. i ordered a summit racing single inlet dual outlet chambered muffler. and to oval tips. that are 3 inches x 4.5 inches littler bigger then i wanted but i can deal with it. but here is pic of what i wanna do. going to have it all welded up saturday

Pro-Pilot

How far more to the right is is mounted in the pic?

vipRL171

Well its not mounted right now. They are just sitting in my hand right next to stock exhaust tips. So they will be over to the left a little more when done.

99blackhatch

That will look good. I need to get a setup on mine finally.

3.5RLv-tec?

iTrader: (2)

It would be great if you provide the link for the muffler lol. And do you think the tip is short? I believe my stock tip is way longer than that. I think you should get at least 9" tip and angle it up like the 5zigen mega fire ball muffler lol.

vipRL171

lol well its not a full already together muffler. its just the muffler and 2 tips. i bought both seperate. im trying to to actually get the dual setup just like jdmtom done if they cant do it then im going to get the single dual tip setup from pics above. this is what i bought below. also will post pics tomorrow when all is done and a video of sound.

2 vibrant tips i bought:

and the summit racing muffler got one with a little to big inlet but it has a 3 inch inlet and 2 2.5 inch outlets

vipRL171

so instead of doing the dual tip i went ahead and had dual exhaust welded up. i think it looks better lol. tips a little furter out then i wanted but are even with bumper it self and i think it looks good sounds amazing happy with results now time to slam this things and do some wheels. and im going to get some high temp engine paint to to paint the seen pipes so they do show as much lol

3.5RLv-tec?

iTrader: (2)

Hmm. I don't know about that pipe sticking that low. Anyway, how it the sound inside the car? Can you post a video inside at WOT and a cruising speed. And what is the total for this job. I've planned to get the Dynomax super turbo for my car. BTW, any drone?

vipRL171

Well its actually not as low as it looks lol and im going to paint it black so its not as noticeable. Its has a amazing sound im going to make some sound videos today. It has no drone at high way speeds. Its pretty quiet when you get up to these seeds but very throaty 2hen you get on it. I spend right around $281 after buying muffer 2 tips and having it all welded up

3.5RLv-tec?

iTrader: (2)

Yeah, hurry and get the video up lol. I'm interested in the muffler. Your muffler is a chambered right? So i guess that make it a little quiter compare to my old Magnaflow. What kind of muffler is that? Can you provide a different link to where you got the muffler? Your old link is just a pic of the muffler. Thx.

vipRL171

^^ yea i know sorry. but yea its a chambered muffler which makes it have a great sound but i couldnt get a decent video of inside the car and the outside the car there is so much traffic in my area right now hard to get one without alot of background noise but will get a better video of it on wed when im off work again lol. but here is a sitting still video of it sounds really good.

vipRL171

these are the tips i ordered:

3.5RLv-tec?

iTrader: (2)

Wow, that does sound pretty good. It looks like the muffler has dual outlet , but how come your is only a single tip? It would be great if you post some pic under the car too And aslo, can you post some inside car video( @ WOT and cruising speed) lol

vipRL171

What you mean mine is only single tip? That's the muffler I have installed dual outlet with both chrome tips. And yea im working on those videos having a hard.time getting them. My camera sucks lol. And I will take a pic under cat when I get off work.

vipRL171

here is the pics under the car and the best sound clip i could get inside the car. its hard to get a sound clip inside the car there isnt alot of sound or drone inside lol. but here is pics and video.

Sounds nice, I always liked the dual set up as well, although I might hide mine a little more and not have it stick out so much, I dunno yet though. Ill hop on this train and see how the rest of your mods go

vipRL171

thanks man. yea sounds great. im going to actually paint the pipe you can see that hangs down. im going to just paint high temp black so its not as noticable. tips dont stick out as much in person as it looks in that pic lol that pic makes it look like alot haha. but i like it not going to mess with it to much. i can deal with it some on sticking out lol. more mods coming soon lol

Pro-Pilot

Great!

I like this set up (or something similar).
