I'm looking for a new exhaust for the -6. I have an older 2-in, 2-out exhaust which looks like it was a 2-in, 1-out at some point but was modified by welding up the single outlet and adding two log center outlets under the bumper.
I've been looking at the "banana-stylIe" mufflers as well as the custom-style that uses a couple of tubes into a large single Magnaflow muffler. Does anyone have any experience with M&K or another banana-style besides the stock Dansk replacement? What about other custom alternatives? I'm looking for a sporty sounding street exhaust. Thanks for any replies, ideas. |

Please post a video of the car running the Scart. I love the sound but heard from one source that some mid range power could be lost? Due to the open nature/lower restriction of the super Sound model? I have never seen any hp comparison figures with and without the Scart though. I hope that is not the case because i want one but $1300 for great sound with a power hit would not be ideal.

Awesome. I have seen that video several times. I did not know that was your car. You have an S spec motor correct? Have you run the same motor with any other mufflers and if so what was the performance difference? If driving the car long distance is it uncomfortably loud?
I wish I could try one before i put down the money. Brett Please post a video of the car running the Scart. I love the sound but heard from one source that some mid range power could be lost?
