Holy **** dude, make the file smaller for the 56k dudes. Is the vid 30 minutes long?

 

nope, only one minute, but I still can't figure out how to add up-to-date codecs to my fackn Adobe Premier.

Thanks for bringing that up, I'll try to shrink it to 1Mb tomorrow at work, video quality does not really matter after all...

 

Pinacle buddy.

 

I use Microsoft Encoder 9 I think. It can encode it into pretty much whatever you want. Nice vid BTW.

 

Vlad you hit every aspect of the muffler tone by reving your engine and driving it around. Great job!!!I do have to say that this muffler upgrade sounds really nice compared to other exhausts. Nice for people that want a soft but aggressive exhaust tone.

 

Thanks for replies!

Yes, I guess I got what I wanted: real quiet while cruising and a little agressive when WOT.

Here is an audio file for 56K people. It's 157K only. Since you can't see the video it goes like this. Three phases:
1) Revving inside the car
2) Revving outside
3) Acceleration on highway (put volume a little up for that)

p.s. I tried to compress video suitable for 56K folks but Adove kept throwing errors for some reason. (I have Win 2000 so unfortunately can't try that XP video software).

 

Is that with a ypipe installed yet or no?

 

cant wait to hear this

 

it sounds really really REALLY good from inside, i like it from outside and on the highway it has the type of tone i would love to have...but its a 2.25" inlet right?

 

yes, 2.25" inlet.
I have the same thing.

Great vid clip, Vlad. Thanks for sharing with all so that they can see how good our exhaust sounds(yours and mine and everyone else that is thinking of this set up.)

So, you went with the 2.5" custom b-pipe, y-pipe, and 5th gen muffler?

 

Nope, as a matter of fact 2002 muffler inlet is 2". I asked the guy at muffler shop to remeasure twice in front of me and unfortunately it is only 2". So to make flow smooth and drop in diameter more gradual set up is like this:

1) Y-pipe: 2" from headers that connect into 2,5" pipe that goes to the cat
2) Stock cat
3) 2,5" piping out of cat
4) 2,5" Magnaflow resonator
5) 2,25" piping out of resonator to the muffler
6) Inlet to muffler was cut right on the edge so it keeps beeing 2,25" as long as possible..

BTW, take into consideration that hacked airbox adds some tone as well, but together with muffler it sounds great!

 

Hey Bruce, what kind of piping you have?

 

sounds great!
