HansGT Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Looking for people with experience with these mufflers. Might be getting one to add to my CBE to quiet things down.... http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=116598 http://www.afabcorp.com/AFCO_Dynatech_USbrake/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=Dynatech&Category_Code=split-flow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wangspeed Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 It's an aluminumized exterior. Expect it to rust after a few years, even if you paint it. Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wangspeed Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 If you wanna try something like this, just get a Borla XR-1. I'm adding an XR-1 resonator to my Magnaflow, but I also have Perrin headers to help quiet things down. http://www.hotrod.com/techarticles/borla_exhaust_hi_pro_systems/index.html Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansGT Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 ^ are you doing one of the 5" round resonators? Or the larger oval muffler? http://www.borla.com/products/product_multi_detail.aspx?cat=5&type=72&desc=XR-1%26reg%3b+Racing+Exhaust|XR-1%26reg%3b+Sportsman+Racing+Mufflers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wangspeed Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 The 5" round one. I just wanted to dull it a little. Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansGT Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 ^ what % in volume reduction do you expect? (research on this?) drone gone as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wangspeed Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Don't know. I'll let you know how it sounds when I get it done. Right now I'm on the Perrin headers and a Borla, and it's not bad at all, but the Borla (only 2.5") is now a restriction since I've upgraded to a Dom 3.

HansGT Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 ^ so your selling your Borla CBE? Perhaps a trade..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wangspeed Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Yeah, I'll be ditching the Borla here in the next 2-3 weeks. I don't have the Borla resonator yet. I just ordered it. I already have the Magnaflow sitting in my garage though. Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansGT Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 ^ I think you'll be glad you have the resonator. I've had the magnaflow for two years now and she's loud. It's been ok, because I'm usually never in the car for very long. But it gets to be too much for me, especially my wife, after 20-25 minutes. Maybe I'm just getting too old.

Wangspeed Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Well, I had the Borla XR1 resonator welded in the Magnaflow, and swapped out my Borla for my new frankenstein exhaust. Since I put on the equal length headers, it's really only about as loud as stock exhaust manifold + DP & Borla. I'd say it actually idles a little quieter than that old combo. I haven't had a chance to really open it up yet. Just painted it, and swapped the exhausts. Will give another review later this week.

HansGT Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 I picked up the magnaflow 11219. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEE-OTTO Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I picked up the magnaflow 11219. NICE i picked up the 11216 (2) once you get that installed post up a good clip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpawnGT Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 When it comes to this topic i always wanted to install something like the VW GTI has, where at a certain pressure the mufflers get really loud, but at normal pressure its really quiet. anybody know where to get one of those besides stealing a GTI's mufflers and welding them on?
