Hooker Side pipes. Any one had them decibel tested? (more pics added)

69 DIRTY RAT:
I think its a 2in pipe surrounded by glass inside? I'm not sure what you should do? apart from trying them on + add some more steel wool to get through rego then get rid of the wool? But whether thats good enough?

gtc:
As to the original question, from what I can see, I would guess that they would be very loud.

nifty:
am i correct in thinking the bent bit slips OVER the bit that looks like a motorbike muffler? thats what im thinking happens,so will just look like any other side pipe....

demonx:


Where the pipe is laid out is where it would clamp up. So the muffler is about 3/4 the length of the pipe.

If they were actually motor bike mufflers, why would they be straight/cylindrical the whole length? Wouldn't they be tapered.

I'm assuming they are not motorbike mufflers based on that alone, but I know little about motorbikes so correct me if I'm wrong.

gtc:
It's true that bike mufflers of that style taper down to meet the header pipes.

What you've got there simply resembles a bike muffler. I've Googled around trying to find a similar "hotdog" style muffler but none of the ones I found had a radiused end like that --- they were all in-line types.

Are they straight through, or baffled?
