we ordered the largest cat we could find, 2 racing beat 80mm flanges and welded it all up to bolt into the rb turbo back system.

by definition every aftermarket cat is "high flow" its a marketing name like "diet" or "fat free"

its a little louder, but it got deeper so this is good. so far everyone who has heard it says it sounds best with no exhaust https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/ohmy.png

Jeff20B 02-03-2004 02:10 PM

It sounds better on the videos you posted, with no exhaust.

so you went from the RB midpipe muffler to a cat and it got louder.... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/unsure.png



i have the 3" RB turbo back and i want my TII as quiet as my old FD, which had a stock exhaust except for a downpipe. does this mean cat AND muffler in the midpipe for the FC?



anybody got suggestions for a high flowing and quiet muffler? anybody put some miles on a spintech?

ikrazygluebrokenapexseals 02-03-2004 08:44 PM

btw, didn't mean to threadjack, just got excited. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png i'll take it to the right forum if it's a prob.

the rb turboback is the quietest exhaust there is, maybe a small muffler in the dp?
