Magnaflow Mufflers

[Bass Junky]

Hey ppls.

I got EPA’d again.

Performance Exhaust in Ringwood recommended replacing my Cannon at the back with a Magnaflow box.

Reckons with no other mufflers, this will make the car legal.

Anyone had any experience with Magnaflow?

Sound good?

[Let Me Drive]

hay bass they are not bad we (my dad and me got one made up for just for epa stuff) they are great and sound ok but just get a flang puton behind the cannon and get a stock muffler and bolt it on and then get it tested and when you get home change it over again.

[Bass Junky]

I'll be putting in a flange so that when racing I can put the old muffler on just for aural pleasure.

I'll leave the Magnaflow on all the time, cos it's too loud in the car at the moment.

if you were in wa id give you my stock exhaust for the day . try and find someone with one in vic maybe ?

[Bass Junky]

I HAD a stock exhaust and I lent it to HasLo on these forums.

It has since been fitted to his car for complience and then lent to one of his friends workshops who backed over it with a forklift, so I have no exhaust.

I want to reduce the noise of my car anyway, so the new muffler is the go.

magnaflow's sound great on rb engines, buddy of mine has one on his 20 and it sound mint.

nice deep sound without being overly loud.

I have a magnaflow on my rb20.. bit droney.. but to be honest I think its over the 90db on my car when you put the foot into it.

Low down its fairly quiet.

[Bass Junky]

Do you have any other mufflers in the exhaust?

[Roy]

...driving around in James' brothers WRX which has a Magnaflow cannon, it is still damn noisy for a stock car with stock exhaust apart from the muffler. Dotn know what model muffler it was...but i supose if you get one of their quiet exhausts rather then a 'performance' exhaust ????

[Bass Junky]

I'm looking at the largish straight through muffler.

[predator]

Do you have any other mufflers in the exhaust?

no.. 3" dump to 3" cat.. to 3" catback with 1x 45deg bend in it and then the magnaflow.

Does sound good though

[Bass Junky]

Cool,

I have a Fujisubo Power Getter, which is why it's so damn loud. Changing the rear muffler I think will make a huge difference.

[Bass Junky]

Oh, and it's got a slightly offset muffler (Fujitsubo) in the middle

It's got a muffler in the middle AND one at the rear and it's still too loud. Damn they must not be much of a muffler.

What we do is fit a bolt in restrictor in the rear muffler, then it is a simple matter of undoing 4 screws and removing the restrictor. The restrictor is a reverse cone shape and makes the exhaust bounce outwards into the silencing material, rather than go straight through. With your access you should be able to make one up out of stainless steel pretty easily.

You trim the size of the hole in the restrictor until you get the desired noise level. Start of quite and gradually trim until it is at the limit. It does knock the top off the performance, but it is quick and easy to remove.

cheers

I got pegged with the race Cat in I think.

Hadn't had a chance to change it over from Deca

[Bl4cK32]

no.. 3" dump to 3" cat.. to 3" catback with 1x 45deg bend in it and then the magnaflow.

your muffler has the hole in the tip to add or remove a silencer in it

[Bass Junky]

Any restrictors need to be welded in and permanent to be epa legal.

i didnt think fuji made power getters for the r34

i had one on my s15 and it was the best ever but alas I was told not avaliable for r34

[Bass Junky]

Well, I got one.

It's too loud for me.

Wanna buy it?

[32vspecII]

damn , i just fit a trust power extreme II about 3 weeks ago

theres a r33 power getter but no 34 so I guess its that . did you have to modify anything to get it to fit ? i had to mod my peII for the 4 door and that was a r34 exhaust anyway

strange that its loud , fuji are one of the quieter exhaust manufacturers around and my s15 power getter had no problems passing the pits .
