liquidburnTSi Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 My uncle just gave me his old Greddy Muffler form his eclipse because he bought a Buscher FULL RACE exhaust system for it!. How much HP am I gonna squeeze and will it be easy to install ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quest4Power Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 if it's just a muffler, probably no noticeable HP gain. you still have the restrictive exhaust ahead of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quest88_TSI Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 Sorry to burst your bubble, but getting a muffler doesn't provide a lot of HP, it is more of a myth. Let me take you through the process here. You have the headers, then the pipes for the exhauste system, cat(s) and then the muffler. The only way you see any gains is if your muffler is smaller in size and restriction than the system ahead of it. Remember, the muffler is the LAST thing your exahuste passes through. If you are looking for bang for the buck, the CAT(S) are far more restrictuve than the muffler. Then the pipes/header and then finally the muffler. I'd look into replacing out the entire exahuste system, a muffler will do little but make a lot of noise! Sorry to break the news to you...

liquidburnTSi Posted November 7, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2002 Thanks, for the info oh - the muffler that I put on isn't a rice sounding coffee can that I thought it would be. the TSi sound is just louder and more defined. I like it! ( no stupid sounding BBWWAAHHH!, BWWAAAAHHH, BWAHHHHH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
importwarrior Posted November 7, 2002 Report Share Posted November 7, 2002 i run the summitracing dynoflow i think Part Number-: WLK-17223 to me it is a hollowed out coffee can, it is a 3 inch and straight open pipe as far as im concerned, but man it has a real deep tone! i cant drive in a parking garage with out setting off alarms even in parking lots i hear them chirp , i love the sound, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesskelter Posted November 11, 2002 Report Share Posted November 11, 2002 Anybody know a good set of pipes and cat? I don't think I'm going to mess with the headers yet......but any reccomendations would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
