AWDxBOOST Posted August 16, 2005 Author Share Posted August 16, 2005 im still tryin to get that muffler pulled to the right...i just cant seem to do it ive gotten it slightly more up and to the left, whereas it was too far the the right before i think new hangers may help, but im not positive. ill probably end up trying that next and see how that does but for now it looks fine too me...not too noticable at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLTek Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 hi, I just spoke to Perrin and your exhaust was test fitted on Perrin Legacy GT before sent to polisher and it fit perfect. did you notice any damage to the exhaust after you received it?

Xanth Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Now that the greddy evo2 was released for the sedan I am stuck, like that dog with two bowls of food that starves to death. Can't decide if I want to go civil and get the borla, go nuts and get the perrin, or just experiement and hope the 95db rating greddy gave their evo2 is for real. If you guys have any recommendations, by all means post'em. I am pretty sure the perrin is gonna be too loud for my tastes, but what about this 95db rating greddy is claiming (I assume WOT)? Anyone out there with a meter and a borla want to chime in? Anyone know how many db out stock setup is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBlueGT Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Anyone out there with a meter and a borla want to chime in? Anyone know how many db out stock setup is? I will be getting the ION one in a couple of weeks (not quite ready yet). Jack swears that it is as loud as a stock M3 at WOT and quieter at idle, that is with one resonator. You can have it built with none, one or two resonators. With carbon fibre to reduce weight. With ceramic coatings also. I will likely be the first person with one so i will post pics and vid when I get. Full tune of 68HTA, KSTech 73 MAF, Racer X FMIC and ID1000s................by the DataLog Mafia!!!

illt3ck Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 What's the point of spending $1,000 for 5hp and stock noise level? Isn't the point of a catback to enhance the throaty growl of our 2.5 boxer engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandwood Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 What's the point of spending $1,000 for 5hp and stock noise level? Isn't the point of a catback to enhance the throaty growl of our 2.5 boxer engine? speaking just for myself, I'd like a little more noise at idle, and more noise at WOT, but not much more noise at cruising speed - otherwise it can drone and get on your nerves. Some exhaust makers aim for those sorts of goals too.... getting out of the legacy game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanth Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Exactly, the damn drone, I would love to have that boxer rumble, but I dread the drone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProConcept Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Is the flange that mounts to the downpipe 3" or 2.5"? It would be nice to get the lachute dp with the 3" flange to have it 3" all the way through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PLTek Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 not sure, I will have to refer to my friend Scans007 and his site http://www.pimpmyauto.com. He will have his Perrin exhaust tomorrow but already has clips on the site and the Greddy clips are probably going to show up on his site at some point Best Peter Sz PLtek,llc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
