    i think y'all got the wrong idea about the side exit, althought it would be cool!
    what i meant to say is the single tip is upturned and to the left out of the stock possi!

    Hey Jarred

    I've got a 2.0l with a 2inch exhaust and a hot dog. Sounds good when it has warmed up. Sounds even better when you are gearing down.
    The exhaust guy reckons I got an extra 8kw. He also put a relatively quieter muffler because when I first fitted the exhaust the muffler was a pretty loud one and the drone effect was very annoying.
    I work near the Eastern suburbs, so if you wanna hear it or see it Id be more than happy to show you. (PM me first)

    Cheers

Have a look through your mufflers and check that what your getting is just perforated tubing with no fins or baffles in the way. Go for glass pack mufflers to as they are better at reducing annoying droning noise at some rpms. If you get a tip with perforated tubing inside and stainless steel wool packing it will give a better note when your right up it!
    Good advice. Marty made the exhaust on my car when he owned it. and it sounds mean. Very deep.

    Loud though. Like sets off car alarms loud.
