Thank you UPS!



Muffler is here. Getting it installed at 9 tomorrow morning.

 

cant wait to hear it i was gettin ready to call borla today and talk to them and order a muffler but im gonna wait to see how yours turns out tomorrow thx and good luck

 

Just got back from the shop. All I can say is wow! There is a significant increase in volume, especially on startup, idol and WOT with the XR1. At cruising and highway speeds it is a little louder. The most significant change is the tone. It has much more of a growl and it doesn't sound quite as smooth as the Magnaflow. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied.

I'm glad I didn't go with true duals right now, as I'm not sure I could handle the volume and my wife may have divorced me if I had gone that route.

I shot a quick video of a cold start with my old Magnaflow last night and I plan to shoot one tonight with the XR1 for a comparison. Hopefully, I can get it posted tonight. If not, it will probably be this weekend.

Once again, thanks for all the advice guys.

 

Finally got the video uploaded. First part of video is my old exhaust, second is the XR1. Let me know what you guys think.

 

Hmm, I have 94106's with a 14" si/do maggie (12198) Sounds like a roush off road to me. that is the sound I have been looking for. I can't tell how loud it is though

 

I keep comparing... the xr-1 with hi flows and the ROR with hi flows sound very similar. I might just do the xr-1

From the video you posted, they do sound kind of similar. As I said earlier there was a substantial increase in volume coming from the 18in Magnaflow. I'm sure the increase won't be as big of a difference with you since you've got a 14in Maggie. However, it should still bd noticeable.

I'll get some acceleration and driving videos this weekend and post those as well.

 

Sounds good! I'll look and see if I can find a smaller body muffler. How is the idle? Is it more chambered muffler like?

 

Nice, very nice. Sounds almost like a diesel to me. I would have thought it would sound similar to AVFROG's but it doesn't...at least to me.

 

Pro xs resemble the oval body mufflers like maggie 14",18" etc. XR-1s are aggressive but come in round and oval

 

Yeah, my XR1 is oval. I'm not sure what the sound difference would be with the round XR1.

 

Wow, I wasn't expecting such a growl from a SIDO.

I'm looking forward to the take off and hard acceleration videos.

 

sounds awesome!! i was thinking of chopping up my magnaflow sido system as well and doing a magnapack sido like 08fx4, but you sir may have just steered me in a different direction.

 

Thanks for the compliments guys! I'll get some more videos posted this weekend.

Not too sure how I like the sound at WOT. I'm not sure if its the echo or what but something sounds a little off. Maybe the videos will help figure it out.
