anywhere in la to do the gundo hack?

 

I have Tubi headers and mufflers with AWE cats. Sounds like a cup car. Some love it some hate it. Recently, I had the cats taken off because I forgot how it sounded before. I still enjoy it but at normal cruising speeds it's almost too quite for me. The cats are going back on.

I will post a video with and without the AWE cats on a full Tubi setup soon.

 

The Tubi has a phenomenal sound. Can't wait to hear those clips!

 

I know that Brian at AfterHours can do it, he does all sorts of custom work to spec. He's not expensive either. Outside of that I'm sure any competent muffler shop can handle it. Just bring some pics of what goes where (there are a lot of threads with pics - Gundo may have some pics to send you as well).

 

ya i was just looking for somewhere that has done it already

 

Anybody have racing cats with PSE? I'm interested in the performance improvements of the cats but don't want it too loud.

 

"I'm interested in the performance improvements of the cats but don't want it too loud."

My solution AWE Headers and Cats with a Remus exhaust. The complete AWE solution was just too loud for me. The Remus or any European Sound after market muffler should do the trick if it is designed for Aftermarket cats.

The headers themselves will change the exhaust note of stock mufflers some but not offensively. Add aftermarket cats is where the sound really starts to change. The stock mufflers sounded horrible with the AWE headers and Cats. While the complete AWE system was loud it performed well, but my butt dyno says I didn't lose much with the Remus cans and may have gained some low end back.

There is always a trade off with modifications.

 

Hi,

I wonder - did you run your car on dyno prior and after you did all those mods quoted above? If you did, what were your results?

 

Sorry no dyno's. From what I have read of people who have with similar mods approx 35-45 HP gains.
Exhaust as stated and in my sig,
RSS plenum
RSS Modified TB
X-51 Exhaust
Center Radiator
APR Software set 93 Octane and the ability to set it to Racing Fuel though I have never tracked the car.

I love the way the car runs and it is a definite improvement over stock.

 

If your looking for a good exhaust, id do the Cargraphic one for sure

I think Cargrahics is an awesome setup, just dont see the justifiction of spending $5k on an exhaust when you an spend under $3k and get as good results. My setup new is under $3k..I bought the Borlas used for $700 so I only spent $2.5k. I also have heard the Cargraphic sport setup and I still think my Borla sounds quite a bit better with the 200cpi AWE cats and the X51 headers. Of course this is just my opinion...I'll take the pepsi challenge anyday of the week.Dave

 

The Cargraphic mufflers are about the same price as Tubi. I don't know where the $5k price came from, but it's not correct.

Unless you're talking about mufflers, headers, cats, etc... which will run you in that range from a variety of tuners.

Not defending Cargraphics, just clarifying the price. If someone is interested in these, they should speak with Bryan at RSS.

 

Just re-read this... got ya.. $5k all in, which is probably right.
