Made some changes to the exhaust, I like it!

Post by 855r »

So even though I had a good flowing magna flow muffler I decided that I would get rid of it, so I did. Yes the car has no muffler now. I had a test pipe made with a flange on it where the muffler had bolted up so I can swap them back and forth. I really like the sound and I can actually hear the turbo spooling. It's cool :tu: Here are a few pictures of the set up. I have painted it black now and it looks good too. My friend said as I pulled away from his house he could really hear the turbo the exhaust in general is louder but not by much my 55 chevy with 2 chamber flowmasters is way louder. Anyway check out the pic's.

My friend has a 65 Turbo and also runs no mufflers. Its not that loud and he thinks the turbo works better too.

The turbo itself acts like a muffler. I have had a few turbo charged vehicles with no mufflers, none were all that loud. Looks cool, and yes, a sound clip would be great!
