Does anyone know the weights of each? Which one is lighter? Also, which one flows better? Thanks.

 

they flow about the same, and you can get the XR-1 in a titanium version thats like 2.2 pounds. theres o performance differneces maybe just sound and appearence.

 

nothing beats the sound of the XR1

 

XR-1 will be a bit quieter also.

 

thanks for the replys. i think i'm leaning towards the xr-1. does anyone know how much the titanium ones sell for and where to get it? i didnt see one in my jegs catalog. also, does anyone have any sound files of how the xr-1 sounds? i've only heard the dynomax bullet.

 

if cost is no option I would go with the XR-1 titanium b/c it will be much lighter, comparatively speaking. But if cost is an option as is it was for me, go with the dynomax for $40. I don't have flow numbers but the XR-1 can't flow any/much better. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I have dual exhaust, had Dynomax 3" bullets on there with dumps, it was basically 80% as loud as open headers, and it was pretty raw sounding. Sounded similar to a cutout. I got pulled over maybe the third time I had this setup. This setup was insanely loud going down the highway and everywhere else. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I then installed two 3" XR1 stainless mufflers, and the sound is more in line with what I was looking for... more of a tuned sound, maybe 1/2 as loud as the bullets, and probably about 99% of the same flow. I also did a 2.5" H pipe so that no doubt had an effect too.

 

That ground clearance looks pretty minimal!! I'm going with duals soon, and I like the idea of the Borlas being quieter. Has anyone noticed more/less ground clearance with these, over regular bullets??

 

Same height really...

Really it's just a matter of looking for the best spot to mount the mufflers and making sure that you are not near wires or lines that can melt from heat. I have never scraped the mufflers.

<strong>Yes here is a link, I never tried to move the mufflers higher, I think I would need to either relocate the stuff on the driver's side like the fuel line. Pipe is 'ovalized' 3", 2.5 H pipe about 18 inches back, Borla XR1's, and turndowns before the axle.

Im getting those exact mufflers John has for Christmas. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> The reason is half the sound with the same power.
