HEY ALL,
I have a ra28 with the 18R-GEU, with higher comp(9.3?) pistons, it has pacemaker extractors into 2" pipe all the way to the end which has one dead muffler.
At the moment it is VERY loud.. it is fun but it doesnt sound a good loud, its just lumpy lumpy pop crackle hehe because the end muffler is f-cked.
Yesterday i bought a 15" hotdog resonator and a 15" thin oval muffler which is said to be slightly quieter than the hotdog, and was $5 dearer.
Now because i bought two different types, i was wondering which would be more restrictive/effective?
I mean should i put the hotdog nearer the motor with the thin oval nearer the back, OR the oval box nearer the extractors followed by the hot dog..
I am getting a new end muffler soon as i get the car on the road, so that isnt a worry for me atm. The exhaust shop guy couldnt decide which should go first, bu thought it wouldnt really matter.. Just wondering if anyone has done the similar thing and could recommend which could improve sound and decrease restrictiveness..
I wanted it to be quiet with a nice note.. I dont care about loudness, i dont wanna get cop attention.
If someone could host pics i could put them up to show evryone what mufflers im on about..
Cheers heaps if anyone can give any advice,
much appreciated
