Weird how the battery has been ok, till when I decide to go grocery shopping.

Lucky enough bumped into my mate, also grocery shopping lol. Clearly the ladies in both our families aren't trained well.

In pursuit of a quiet gentleman's car, ive decided to add more mufflers :)

Proposed new set up will have a cat still, and the external plumbed back after the 100 cell cat.

Both exhaust and gate will merge into a small cylindrical muffler, then into an oval muffler and then a large fk off muffler. All 3.5", hopefully I can hear all the squeaks in the car and all the noise from the rose joint arms lol.

LHS = Hi-Tec (extremely heavy, stainless but ends are sprayed black)

RHS = SMB last of them forever I think. They've shut shop as the owner is ill :(

All 3.5"

I decided on magnaflow so went down to a place near by to get them, they actually suggested to me to use smb but it was christmas time and they had already closed for the break.

I went home thinking smb and ordered some other mufflers for it online lol funny how that seems to happen.....

May I ask the price? I'm thinking of selling my brix 1.5 for a fixed back.

Thanks man!

Was about $1.6k with rails from Jesse Streeter, however we ordered a bunch of other shit too.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
