JMC is yours a CatBack? Did they custom make it 4 U?

 

nothing custom

 

Basically as I understand it...you just changed out your muffler and put in a bigger pipe from the resonator.....and you noticed a power increase......I know that sometimes the extra noise "feels" like more power.. Have I got the story right?

Thx

 

how much did the new exhaust cost and was it really worth it. just to make sure this is the muffler that can be tuned right?

 

There was an increse in Power and Noise.......I could tell between the two.
The Exhaust was around $200 or so.....I got a good deal through a shop.

 

JMC do you think the intake gave you the biggest boost or do they both work hand in hand. By the way for anyone reading these postings. New Zealand and Australia have cheap "used" parts for Outlanders. I bought a speedo cluster (silver) for $200 US. I bet the performance stuff is equally cheap.

 

they work hand in hand... one compliments the other. being able to suck the air in only helps when it can spit it out... you dont have to do both, but doing so would help the most.

 

Once again Wildwest.........exactly what I would have said. You the man!
Yo kiwicom.......do you have a link or any info on the parts?
Thanks!

 

hey guys i called up power effect where they sell the battlez exhaust and they wanted to sell me all kinds of stuff for around$340 thats not including installation or fabrication. that price is only for parts. on the picture i see a nice chrome pipe with a muffler which i wouldnt mine paying that price for since i would be able to bolt it up myself. but for that price i could get a custom exhaust with my cats gutted and probably gain more than 4-5 hp. and besides i wanted to see if i could run the muffler to the left side just so i could be different.

 

the question is do you want to pay for the looks. most people really dont need chromed or stainless exhaust. The only advantage to stainless is the fact that it resists rusting. id say find a local shop and get an in and you could have them fabricate one for much less. Dual cat back. maybe even ask the guys if they do it in their spare time. a guy i worked with at the ford dealer had a pipe bender at home and did the work they were not allowed to do at the dealer. ie cat removal... oversizing pipes...
