Hi all
Just got a totally stock AU2 XR8 220kw. Whilst I love the car, it only sounds like a V8 at high revs and I'd like an all-round better exhaust note. I don't care about extra power (I'm between XR6 Turbos) - I just want a better V8 note at idle and through the rev range. Of course, every exhaust shop gives me a different answer and most recommend a full new system. Given that it already has a twin 2.25 system from the factory with twin centre mufflers and 1 rear resonator, I'd love to know your opinions on how each of the following will effect the exhaust note: 1. Removing the rear resonator and replacing with straight through pipes? 2. Removing the centre mufflers and replacing with high flow mufflers or hot dogs? 3. Removing centre mufflers and replacing with straight through pipes? 4. Single 2.5 inch exhaust with 1 straight through muffler? 5. Twin 2.5 with 2 straight through mufflers? I'd love opinions from anyone who has done any of the above to a Windsor, particularly 1,2 and 3. Thanks Mark |
