GoldDigger:
Yeah I hear you. Something about noise compliance. My car has lukey mufflers on a 3" system & I cannot hear myself think when driving with all the resonant noise. I would love to put sidepipes on but I believe it is almost impossible to get them for a RHD.
69 DIRTY RAT:
hey GoldDigger, if you cant hear now do you think the sidepipes will fix the noise problem with 4inch pipes???;56 You can put sidepipes on a RHD vett if you want! get some headers made up to join the 4-1 outer section! or a cheaper way is to get some 4-1 headers then adapt the single pipe to go back into 4 smaller pipes or into just 2 (of the 4) pipes.
GoldDigger:
Thanks for the tip 69DR. I bet the noise would be just as bad or good depending on your point of view, but the look would be worth it. Something I will definately keep in mind.
Cheers
demonx:
I had a two and a half inch system on my last vette and it set off car alarms!
How did you get a 3" system through the cross member properly? Is it tacked or something? I've read that you need to modify the cross member to get a 3" pipe through properly.
GoldDigger:
The system was on the car when I bought it but you got me curious so I measured it. Turns out to be a 2 & half inch system after all. Just looks bigger. Must be the male perspective. If you have had that system in the past, you know the note it delivers.
Look forward to seeing the finished product.
