[cl9] new exhaust next week!

[Fredoops]

Oh gosh!! What is a diff back? Is he talking about the location of where the exhaust will be moded. Or is he talking about just a cat back.

I'm wondering the same thing, diff back could mean 1 of 2 things:
1- "turbo back" off the front diff, Which is from turbo all the way to the muffler, there's no turbo in the euro so that's out.

2- "axle back" from rear axle backwards, so effectively just 2 mufflers and the connecting pipe, so HALF a catback so to speak (because its got no mid pipe). Gosh I'm hoping he's not charging a whole lot for what's basically 2 mufflers.

Well usually there is two types of systems:

1. Cat-back system - pretty self-explanatory, everything from the catalytic converter out the back (pipe, muffler/s)

2. Diff/Axle-back system - Everything after the rear diff/axle is replaced (muffler, pipes (if it is a dual outlet)

Hope that gives you an idea

Your car doesn't have a rear diff, so technically diff back on a cl9 would include headers, cat and exhaust :P

Maybe even exhaust valves

So it's just a muffler and y pipe you are getting?

Im sorry mate but the gains you will feel will probably be a placebo effect of having a loud exhaust.

Companies like toda, weapon r, skunk2 etc all have done years of R&D to get the performance gains they make. How can you possibly justify the hour or so this exhaust shop spent looking at (not even working on it) your car will show you gains?

[Fredoops]

I am pretty sure Op understand he's not going to get any gains out of his axle back set up at all. So he's just spending the $500 for the sound.

axle back = sound
cat back = performance
Whole system = ultimate race experience LOL
Straight through exhaust = Track use only, and being a dick on the road LOL

Hey guys,

I went and got my new axle-back system put in my Euro today! It sounds great and am thoroughly happy with the job done by Rob Bliss Exhausts at Geebung!

thread number 3?

EDIT: sounds stock?

[aaronng]

Merged the threads.

I can hear a bit of a growl in the vid when you blipped the throttle. When just revving it with constant throttle opening it sounds stock. Good job on keeping it looking stock and also sounding stock until you give it throttle. This is what you want because you don't want it to drone when you are cruising at the speed limit (60, 80, 110 km/h) because that is when you end up attracting the attention of the police for the wrong reasons.

You want it to be a gentle giant when driving around normally, and then unleashing all hell when you give it full throttle.

Its hard to escape the feeling that the thread is more about advertising his mate than anything
