Question Remus Exhaust Muffler Has Arrived!!

got home today and there it was..

Product name
Single "Turbo" 4.02" (Round Can - 70TD) Rev3
Total Wieght- approx. 20 lbs


what do you guys think?

your opinion

-bad or good. it doesn't matter.i just wanna have an idea of what the community thinks of this.

i only have only one muffler so far. i'm just waiting for someone to buy my subs thats for sale in the BLACK MARKET or i'll order it friday(3/14/08) when i get my Taxes back and my paycheck.

my question is...

what do you think is the easiest way to install? (clamps, weld, etc)
b/c on monday i will be putting my car on a lift to plan on how to attack this install. so when the second muffler arrives i can install these more smoothly.

Thank you AZiners,
-AFF

should look badass if that tip length comes to the right position under the rear bumper...we dont know about this muffler, or at least i dont, so maybe post a sound clip eventually if you feel like. either way i support new ideas and at least you stayed classy: the round tips are already proven to look great on our back ends as with comptech systems.

good luck with install

remus is pretty crazy, they tend to be on the quiet side. 2 things of note at the moment:

1) 20lb muffler? jeez, that thing must be PACKED with resonance deadening material.

2) whats the inlet exhaust size? it looks like friggin 1.5" pipe.

ordering the second muffler tomarrow!!

i placed the remus muffler next to my stock can. it looks like its going to stick out a good 3 inches past where the stock TIP ends. it will depend on how i do it.

from looking at my cl's piping. it looks like i will need to be creative on this install..pictures will be posted up next week. i'll definately need some ideas.


fsttyms1..i might need a little help.lol

update.
got both mufflers now in my trunk. and got all that i can do planned out. after this post i'm going to sleep so i can work on the install in the morning and hopefully for the rest of the week. also planned for burns, back pains, scraps, and cuts...first-aid kit on site.lol. sh!t happens..


-so i'm going to cut all piping from the REAR exhast flange from the CAT(catback)

-then use the old flange with new 2.5" piping welding to it all the way back to a custom y-pipe.

-then the custom y-pipe to the mufflers. for holding up the muffler i will have to weld (4) 1/4" bars to the rim of the mufflers for it to go into the holders. (2 bars to each muffler)

-then heat up the 1/4" round steel bar and bend it into shape.

-clamp/weld/use flanges to bolt up the mufflers to the y-pipe

-it looks nice when i was just mocking up the mufflers...*smiles*



(i saw a silver tl on wisconsin ave by the fox river mall earlier today. he was chirping through 1st and 2nd then ran out of road.lol. the vtec grunt sounds nice.) i was working outside @ PDQ. who are u?

took it for a test drive. sounds real deep.

the passenger side is a bit lower than the driver side, but i'll take care of that tomarrow. i'm tired of getting burned from welds

this project was a bitch.

WOW..i sure got lazy!!!! I started college in the middle of summer..

i finally did something though..HERE YOU GO!!!!!

the roads were very short..and the mufflers are very deep and bass-y..if you have subs on your computer you should will enjoy the sound a lot better with them turned up.

sounds good, somewhat stockish.

not hating but, i had high expectations for this exhaust to have a deep and more unique sound (altp status)... but it sounds close to something like a stock car...

could be bad audio

yea. i think speakers do these mufflers poor justice. i've herd the comptechs before and in MY opinion. the remus' are louder, deeper/bass-y, and look more unique on the CLs.

-------may this serve as a resource for people to compare sounds

i'll take pics of them...

nice! ive asked about Remus exhaust on our cars about a year ago, but no one really had an idea of what it would have sounded like. Its nice, i like. though i wish i could hear it in person. i was looking at the twin turbos but they looked like they wold have been a litle too wide for the cut exhaust cutouts of our bumpers. Very nice though, now its a question of if i want to acutally go through all that trouble to make it fit, or just buy a CT Axleback for a decently easy bolt on. [thumbsup]

btw, nbennettksu, Remus actually does have a Romulus line. hehe... [rofl]
