Cannons Exhausts

Are the cannons mainly for the look or the performance?

no, more fashion than performance, but why single out skylines, lots of other brands have them too

[Albus]

There just one of the more popular cars to have with a cannon. I'm not singling them out as there my favorite car. What my question was asking are the cannons mainly for the look or the performance?

[Missileman]

combination of looks and sound, people who want performance without the loud generally have big high flow ovals

By far the most popular combo of car+cannon is the Lancer, not Skyline.

Agreed.

Adding my 2cents

Older Commodores and Falcons that the young are buying (cos cheap and pov) are putting the Milo tin on also. Looks funny as

They're also keen on the BOV flutter and putting these on 6cyl N/A's. I don't know how it works but that's what is happening - for da lulz

I have a cannon on my 32.. I don't like.

Probably going twin straight pipes, as I am in need for a new exhaust anyway.

Don't know if it will make it worse but oh well..

Varex do a twin pipe from muffler. Just an alternative

Given that 95% of skylines (and 180sx and s13, 14 and 15 have canons, I'd have to disagree. I'd say that it's easier to convince a lancer driver to not put a canon on than it is to convince a skyline owner to not put a canon on. Cause canons are jdm......

But as others have said, no performance gains from having a canon over a straight through oval muffler.

No, Canon make cameras.

[Missileman]

yeah it is actually hard to find a skyline without a cannon, at least they sound better on a 6

Have one of these on mine with just a high flow cat and no other mufflers. Even with it open is not really that loud would prefer it louder. With it closed its really quiet, but is down on a lot of power.

An rb25 and 26 and the jz motors are probably then only motors that do justice to a cannon.

Ive seen more lancers where I live with cannon exhausts than skylines. They also have jdm stickers.

Ive noticed little to no difference between my hks exhaust and my nismo big oval muffler exhaust. But the sound of the hks is truly something to lo and behold. I think the worst cars to have a cannon are your hondas. They sound like absolute shit. I honestly put my windows up when driving near one.
