Ed Varon Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 I like the idea of deleting the muffler but what do you think the impact will be on HP/Torque??? I'm thinking that it will cause some loss in power.... What do you guys think? Quote
Tony G Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 I Dyno'd with and with out. My torque went down 1 lb,but my upper rpm hp went up 4-5hp with a X pipe. Tony Quote
bsim Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 I've been thinking of removing the muffler, and going with a setup similar to Borla's street system. I'd cut off the muffler, and make a straight pipe out the back. At that joint, instead of welding it shut, I'd put a pair of header flanges. Between the flanges, you could add a restrictor plate (as similar to Borla) to add back pressure. Their system has 3 different sized openings, allowing for tone and backpressure. I assume we could see the same benefits. You could also put a flange on your muffler (that you removed), to make an easy replacement if and when we run a track with sound restrictions. All patent royalties are to be sent directly to me. Quote
