I was just wondering about what people are doing for exhaust on their ralliart, cat-back or axel-back and what kind of performance gains are you getting.

 

i just ordered the axle back from RRM yesterday... i'll let you know after i finally get it. i would have gotten a full catback but i don't want my MPG to drop unnecessarily lower. the exhaust we have on there now is going to be fine even if we turbo our cars, so i didn't want to waste the extra money in the exhaust or in gas money... but that puny looking muffler thats on the RA now just has to go

 

Im looking to get a performance muffler..Ive been looking on ebay, but im not sure what togo with. I dont want to get something that sounds to ricey, but I dont want ppl the next block over to hear me either. Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

i got a 2 and a quarter cat back system, eliminating the resonator, into a Stellar muffler and tip and i noticed a big difference in power, i can sit and spin 2nd gear with only my exhaust and my fabricated cold air intake, i just used the injen one off the oz

 

I just bought a muffler through ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=2462507953 have not installed it yet, probably this weekend but it looks sweet and has a removeable silencer. quick shipping good price.

 

Anyone use a 2.5" pipe? or is everyone using a 2.25" pipe?

 

2.25 for mid range and 2.5 for top end.

 

I bought and installed an ebay muffler with 2.5" piping from the cat-back. Great power, real real loud with no resonators. I would recommend that set-up but with a resonator. And an exhaust wont reduce your fuel efficiency.

 

Flowmaster.

I know it sounds weird, I looked at my exhaust guy funny too. But I have a 500 series two chamber flowmaster on my car with a magnaflow dual wall tip just like the one on the rrm axelback exhaust, stock piping, and the thing sounds awesome! Its real deep and not too loud, I dont know if it made it faster or just sound faster but there is a difference. I left in all my stock piping including the cat, resonater, and that goofy bent pipe before the muffler, my car sounds sick as it can get.

 

That muffler is designed to sound good on the car, even with stock piping. Not going to perform as well though. I buddy installed a magnaflow on his galant without doing piping and it sounds good too. Still pretty quiet.

 

I have 2.5 inch piping on mine. Catback with a high performance resonator.

 

Did you lose much low end with the 2.5?

 

I didnt notice ANY low end power loss at all. I thought the performance was awesome, just no resonators was...and is...a little loud.

 

I'm not shocked flowmaster was good, they have been doing exhaust for 15 years and a lot of race cars use their products; especially high power drag cars. I'm not saying there isn't a better muffler for our car out there, but the fact that theirs is good i wouldn't dispute. Insidentially I'm thinking of doing exhaust soon; but i'm not sure what I'm going to do yet.

 

i heard that greddy was coming out with an evo2 exaughst system for the RA anyone here anyhting on that.
