Borla XR1's or Dynatech split flow mufflers?
 
Well i'm going to be swapping out my bullets for some new "less loud" mufflers. I got it down to either the Borla XR1's
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...=DTC-76-014302 or BOR-40944 or BOR-40943&Ntk=&rsview=sku&Ns=P_SRE_DisplayPrice|0
or the Dynatech split flow mufflers
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...=DTC-76-014302 or BOR-40944 or BOR-40943&Ntk=&rsview=sku&Ns=P_SRE_DisplayPrice|0
They are pretty much the same muffler except:
Borla is all stainless
borla is 16" case dyna is 14" case
borla is 7 7/8" wide and dyna is 7" wide
oh and ofcouse two Borla's are $275 :eek: and two dynatechs are $180.

Here is the inside of the Borla

Is that insert in the dynatech baffled? And you are the coolest. ;)

SUX2BU Apr 26, 2006 11:50 PM

BTW i found out the Borla weighs about 9 lbs i figure the dynatech to weigh the same but not for certain.

orangeapeel Apr 26, 2006 11:58 PM

I thought that it might have been a reflection.

Yeah in know. :(
I'm just wondering if this is one of those you get what you pay for moments.

Lithium Apr 27, 2006 12:53 AM

I say we just leave this decision to Jordan.

All I know is that the xr1 I have made one hell of a difference from having no cats! :judge: :judge:

werd bitch!

Grimes Apr 27, 2006 10:20 PM

Do you have another choice that is not straight through? If you are looking for less loud, then the ones you have chosen will be only a tiny bit quieter. Trust me, lol.

No. I'de rather have the all out power than anything else.
I am first going to put a divider "baffle" in my bullets like the above mufflers have and put some turndowns on them. After i install the Trex i'll see truely just how loud it is. The one thing i completely forgot about is that bigger mufflers = more weight. :eek: And i just can't have that.

Grimes Apr 27, 2006 11:24 PM

Haha, well, at least you know what you want! The turndowns will probably help a decent bit.

LS1Lust Apr 28, 2006 12:24 AM

I would go with the borlas, I know thats what I did. Can't wait to get em put on, so sorry I can't really comment on the sound yet :(

quieter? what kind of difference?

vader99 May 14, 2006 11:57 PM

It barely toned it down volume-wise but it eliminated almost all of the rasp. :)

427-WS6-87-02 May 15, 2006 12:03 AM

I'm sold on the Borla XR1's :)

TheBlurLS1 May 15, 2006 12:14 AM
