ek9 muffler

Andrew, i think the question remains unanswered. Regardless of piping sizes and lengths etc, is the CTR muffler the same as the ITR one ?

Also how different is the EK4 muffler over the EK9 muffler ?

the cannister is diff size
the piping from the bpipe is diff length
the tip is diff length

Andrew you are missing the question again mate !

repeat: Regardless of piping sizes and lengths etc, is the CTR muffler the same as the ITR one ?

Also how different is the EK4 muffler over the EK9 muffler ?

yyehyeh we wanna know are they basically the same exhaust with different length piping??? :wave:


Well i'm actually getting a ITR exhaust anyway.. i thought it should have better flow properties as it is designed for the larger capacity 1.8ltr, and i got my hands on one cheap from a wrecker... ;)

the itr axel back bolt on will bolt DIRECTLY to the EM1 though... u just neeed to extend the tip...
i got no idea about ek hatchs

and besides whats so good about the ITR muffler? its only had a 2" inlet... dontknow y you would want it

Whats so good about the ITR muffler? if youve been to a few of the dyno days you would have noticed that the ITRs with stock exhaust systems seem to make the same power if not slightly more than most ITRs with aftermarket exhaust systems.
The ITR factory exhaust is actually 2.25" mandrel bent and that includes a 2.25" inlet on the muffler which is perfect for a sleeper style exhaust system on the ek4's and dc2's.

That's incorrect AFAIK.

Also, you might want to consider more than the muffler when comparing stock dc2r exhaust SYSTEMS to aftermarket examples. Perhaps workmanship/design, quality, size specs and readout goals might have a larger part to play than the muffler itself....? :rolleyes:

oright oright man...so is the ITR any good on the EK4?

i mean considering the size and other factors...
also if it's possible to get the CTR mufflers.

ITR isn't going to fit on the EK4 if i recall right. You have to get it altered to fit. The ITR zorst system was a great for a stockie. Very good indeed.

CTR muffler is not the same as the ITR muffler

ek4 is oval shaped, the ek9 is cylindrical shaped, what make them different is the flow, and it obvious that the ek9 flows better and thus the need of an additonal but smaller resonator in the b-pipe to restrict to and conform to the emission standard (noise + exhaust output).
