Damn the skunk2's sound sick!! So what did you decide on doing to kill the drone, Al?

Tom, those Tanabe's are hella sexy I like the way they'e positioned, subtle yet aggressive. Awesome, now time for a CLIP!

Good Job, both of you guys

wow Al ur a exhaust genius lol
i love the sound dude! it has more of a tone rather than a hum whle u rev, thats fkn awesome, sounds like u cant hear any sign of drone too at lower rpms, great stuff

lol damn Tom, those looks good without the aspec actually haha, my aspec was blocking most of the exhaust , any problems with the installation? did you angle it or did the mufflerman had to cut anything? sound clips pls! i wanna hear how they sound like with stage3

great Job you 3 (Faiz, Al, Tom)

this by all means is a temporary solution I am going to get a nice resonator later... but I don't know if it will remain temporary since the back pressure got slightly better and it puts it down.... can't wait to get my new wheels/tires on next week


ps. I took like 2 red lights in the vid (well they were yellow)

thanks man.

yeah, the round tip actually looks nice with the square opening. I didn't like the idea of round tips at first, but it's definitely gives more aggressive look but not that aggressive.

yeah, the shape of the muffler (oval) is the problem installation wasn't too bad. just had to trim a little.

as Al pointed out, no more stage 3. but I will try to get a vid anyway.

it's worse for auto. either smaller diam and longer resonator or a midmuffler should help a little. if there was no drone, I would have left it alone.

is the drone unbearable?

Werd man the mid muffler really takes care of the cabin drone... at wot I don't even hear the exhaust... and at 1500-3500 rpms the drone is definitely held to a minimum

You're in the same place I'm in right now. The drone is definitely annoying.

I've got the magnaflow 6x27 due in on Thursday and I'm going to put it in immediately.

I'm hoping this will help. If it doesn't, I might be going back to stock.

there are people with custom catback + aftermarket mufflers. some have tried straight pipe + aftermarket mufflers also.

people usually start with stage 3 but end up with something different/hybrid or complete custom.


Quick Reply: Stage 3 with upgraded muffler?
