ek1 cat back exhaust help

[nugget666]

I saw a thread once on exhauts for ek1 d16y4 exhaust systems but i cant see mto find it again.

im wondering if there is a big diffrence between press bent or mandrel bent exhaust systems. i know there is a flow diffrnce but what about sound?

anyone had much experience with xforce s12 twinloops tips? i was thinking going a press bent catback system with a twinloop muffer on it. Would that give out a nice tone but not a big loud cannon noise correct? I want somthing loudish but not cannon loud.


ive been quoted 230$ for a catback + the tip i choose.

on a normal engine no difference between mandrel bent + press (except price).
On larger engines or more high performance engines there is a benefit on mandrel bent , due to the consistent curves that give consistent flow.

i have heard both twinloop copy mufflers and they sound ok. Deep but not "loud" at all. go for it

s12 are street look more deep tone than s10 .. i think the barrel are slightly bigger than s12

xforce twin loops sound like shit.

on a 2inch press bent cat back.

[nugget666]
