Right now i have a LONG glasspack and a short one that is around the bend heading to the stock location. 2 glasspacks. It is fairly quiet when idle and lower RPM and when i get on it.....The resonance is a little too annoying. But from what i have hear from friends is that it sounds AWESOME when passed.
I know i know, i love the sound too, but i am trying to make this car the most user friendly too. So...question is. What muffler can make my car quiet but flows. 2.0 Turbo EJ20 Subaru TD05 turbo. Subaru stock STI airbox with K&N (that muffled it quite a bit) thanks guys!! |

Another Magnaflow, on a 914/WRX:
(IMG:http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/oo234/paulillick/IMG_0019-1-1.jpg) You don't need as much muffler with a turbo car. It's quiet around town, nice on the freeway, sounds like half of a very angry V8 until it passes about 5000 RPM's, then it just screams. I like it. . |
