Your new exhaust sounds awesome, especially after you drove away from the petrol station, sounds tough 8-)

yea standard cat, i think the main reason mine crackles is its running rich its either stuffed o2 sensor or map sensor brother in law will have a look but not in a big rush to fix it :P does drone abit aswell but its not to bad.

so this drones way to much so its going back to moonah mufflers tomorrow they are going to remove the 3inch dump tip put on a 2.5inch tail pipe and weld the tip back on for $90 the bloke was quite suprised that it droned so bad. he said sometimes the dump tips exagerate drone abit and a tail pipe should fix it...think the fact its auto and the ef was manual adds some difference to :P i dont care will still sound good and hopefully not make you feel like your ear drums are about to burst when cruising on the highway :roll:

Sounds ok, but crap in comparison to how it sounds in real life. The tone is a heap deeper and tougher. :D

When are you getting the tail section installed?

Sounds good, how does it sound up in the 5000+RPM when actually driving not just revving?
