    Every bend in an exhaust or intake system slows down air speed. The more you slow it down, the less efficient it becomes. By having a muffler that has 2 180 degree bends in it, this slows down the air too much causing it to become a bottle neck

    Ok so just quickly going back to the post about the twinloop yielding less performance than the stock system, I could be wrong but I thought the stock muffler (DC2/EG/EK) had quite a few internal bends in it? Like, more than 2.

    So I'm still trying to figure out how the 2.5" system with less bends in the muffler can produce less performance than the factory system.

    Or is the factory muffler a different design to what I am thinking of?

    Magnaflow is good quality in my opinion. Im using magnaflow 100 cell, Magnaflow 18inch resornator, vibrant 12inch resornator and Magnflow muffler.

    personally i use SMB mufflers, made in australia, very high flowing, very quiet, Haks at performance exhaust recommends them.

    Yup got an SMB muffler on my EVO, quieter than the magnaflow ones.
    SMB hand pack the mufflers which are more solid.

    They are more expensive than the magnaflow ones though

    they are well worth the money dude.
    i am very fussy with my mufflers, esp about sound, i hate loud cars, period.
    been through alot of of mufflers
    only the SMB and the ones from hi tech mufflers are the only ones i liked.
    but the SMB ones over the hi tech ones hands down.
    i'm using thier rear muffler and centre muffler.

    Think I could actually get something worth it from tuning?

    change the cat to a 200/100cell cat too.
    and get a tune.
    you'll get better fuel economy, more power through the whole rev range and more response.
    i got a low reading from the dyno day too.
