Howdy,

So, finished the brakes and was measuring up for the exhaust.
I put on my 1-7/8' straight pipe, and couldnt resist starting her up... OH MY GOD!

No muffler, it sounds like a lumpy, huge, V8... at 1000RPM!@!!!!#

Ill get the muffler on during the week, but boy it sounds cool.

Peter.

I got stuck in Bowral on a Saturday with my old hot little 1100 with a LCB, I took the muffler off going up a driveway and couldn't get it back on. I had to drive it around everywhere looking fo an exhaust shop to weld the brackets on it was really loud and I drove off the road because it was causing a migrane. Finally found one but I wouldn't say that it was quiet in the least and it made a big difference not having any back pressure. it made the poor townfolk stare then cry as their ears bled. I then went to a 8litre dodge, that sounded loud with an exhaust on or off ?

Exhaust selection is important in tuning a car the pipe thickness and mufflers play an important part. bigger isn't always better louder isn't always great you get busted by everyone for openinig it up. in my case often some blocks away!!!!

i liked the exhaust that was on it before, it was knackered but hella quiet

the exhaust on my mini which is for sale, is just perfect! its got good tone and volume, but if you dont want to listen you close the window and its quiet

the cannon on my car is too loud i reckon, i will replace it with a nice straighthrough

I put the Redback 2" straight through muffler on... and its STILL farking loud!
Not as loud and thunderous as before, but still loud as heck...

I MIGHT need a hotdog on there too!

but its cool for a while at least

Peter.
