I currently have a canon muffler but, not a big fan of the noise it produces. So I decided to uses the Varex X force muffler with a remote volume.

I just want to know peoples opinion on a oval or a canon.

Question is would you use a canon even though its defect-able or use a oval muffler to stay out of trouble?

True once I install this muffler its silent so it wont matter but, sometimes the cops are just a**h***s so, just want to stay out of trouble. The main reason is a I drive my R34 GTT as a daily driver so want to keep the noise down especially if I want to have quiet drive.

In my eyes canons are the best looking things for a sports car but, they are the most eye catchy thing with a car especially with a cop behind you.

After your opinions I will order the exhaust, Thanks for any advice or assistance given.

There is no reason a proper muffler, cannot be legal, look stealth and be reasonably affordable.

Varex cost more, are still deflectable and I'm yet to hear one that gives a decent exhaust note.

I really can't see how they offer anything.

As for the tip, just have it the same size as the exhaust itself. If its 3", just a 3" tip.

This also helps reduce drone and noise.

Otherwise just go twin tip muffler looks much more factory if that's what you want.

iv got a fujitsubo oval muffler, sounds great, not tinny or farty in any way... from my experience an oval muffler does sound better... to me anyways. Cannons sound a bit tinny to me and not as clear as a oval muffler, it doesn't really muffle the sound if you know what i mean... lol

Get the biggest straight through muffler you can fit in the original muffler cavity and put a dump pipe on it. The dump pipe directs a lot of sound down at the ground making it sound more quiet if you stand behind it unlike cannons which blert out sound like a megaphone.

It's a good idea to get it tucked up in the original muffler cavity neatly beacause cops love nothing more than seeing a 3" exhaust hanging out on an angle at the back, lookng like it could almost scrape the ground.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
