I got mine today, put it on and was amazed by how good it sounded straight away, without even wearing in! even though its a tad loud... not that i care :P

its a 2.5'' with one muffler thats the straight through design with the perforated tube and the packed fibre inside.

so who else has one, and what do you think of it? good points, bad points etc.

I've got a Lukey cat back exhaust. 2.5" with 2 mufflers...sounds good I guess. Would sound heaps better with the rear muffler removed.

Sounds better with a cam in it though :P

phong =P~

I've got one, sounded lumpier (I think) before I put the extractors on. Then it became louder lol. Its only got one box, stuffed if I know what sort.
I'm very happy with it.

how long do they take to wear in properly?

isnt it when there is a layer of carbon on the inside of the pipe?

Redback main centre mufflers are not straight through design, tri-flow make which equals less flow...
