Default Re: dyno

so I'd like to replace the B&B muffs with some free flowing muffs with the flappers in the tips

I think B&B will sell me the new muffs with the flappers but they are probably a grand for the pair (don't think I'll go that route!)

so I'm looking for the following

a really good free flowing 3" muffler with a "corsa like" tip and flapper in one side

let me know what you guys can cook up and I'm all in!!

I'd like to get a few more ponies. the B&B sounds great at WOT and I think it does pretty well, but it's also pretty loud at cruise which I'd like to fix. might fashion up so "plugs" just to try them out like dwight did it's an ez fix for a trip to the beach

thanks.

Ron, keep your 3" B&B's add 3" X-pipe,cut mufflers replace with Dynomax
find C6 ZO6 mufflers use tips and vacuum flapper/tips.
Now you have Corsa looking tips with tolerable cruising sound.

Pete

You will leave 10 rwhp on the table to some that's no big deal but for some that are looking to squeze every last HP, it's big.

Ron,

I have posted this before but thought I'd bring it up again since Pete
described what I have.

Yep. Love them. I think Pete or Al could testify to how they sound. They've both driven my car. BobG. has, except for a different Xpipe, the same setup on his 427. When you get on it, they sound like an old Quadrajet opening the secondaries, BBBWWWWWAAAAHHHHH. At cruise, the exhaust note comes from behind the car like a big cat purring.
