I just put one on my Z roadster a couple weeks ago to replace the Magnaflow which just wasn't loud enough for me. At first it too wasn't very loud,not much different from the Mag. But slowly it got better & better , it also breathes better as seat of the paints feel & gas mileage went up too. But , alas , it has developed a rattle probably from the UPS dick who dropped it. The box was torn almost completely off the muffler. Other than the rattle I really like it. I'm running with stock manifolds & cats so its still not loud enough for me. But you get a 90 day warranty so you can send it back for a refund. I think I'll try their ULTRA-FLOW next.

Currently my car only has straight off road QTP headers on; next week the ORY and the dynomax super turbo will be installed (have to wait for the super turbo to come in). After having just driven an hour to work with just the straight headers installed, all I can say is "WOW!" Talk about loud. My car is pretty much bone stock except for the FRA and a SLP lid. I will post back when it is installed and let you know how it sounds. Then again if you have done some head work or other internal mods yours might sound a little bit different than mine.

Thanks man, I started off with the TSP duals with bullets and it was just obnoxious in my opinion, so after the bullets, I minimized it to 2.5" then but a super turbo muffler on each side and ran it all under the axle.

Thanks for the compliments. Its still loud, but its a %100 no rasp throaty sound.

Not gonna lie, I used a little bit of dynamat, but its really quiet on the inside.

Question

Hmmmm...nice setup. I have something similar, but using Super 40's and not Turbo mufflers. I'm curious, the way you have the 2 mufflers tied together that way, the exhaust goes through the bullets and then through 2 mufflers before it exits at the tips. So each side of the exhaust is running through 3 mufflers basically?

nope... not at all. the two super turbos are 2 separate mufflers. The only time the exhaust hits the exhaust from the other bank is through the x-pipe. Theyre the kind that goes in and out the same side. So it goes in the driver side and out the driver side and the passenger side goes in the passenger side and out the passenger side.

Ahhhh....got you now. The inlet and outlet of the muffler are on the side. Nice!

Yeah, think of how a Corvette has its mufflers.

Pretty much the same concept.

I dunno, its different and in my opinion sounds really really good.

You also have the mufflers in the Dynomax line. I'm not talking about the, which happen to be a very nice sounding muffler, but rather the ones are also dynomax. When they were released enthusiasts swarmed to buy them like a pack of wild hyenas. Why exactly I can only guess, but most likely because of the external R&D that went in to try and distribute the market.

I just had mine installed today. I think *keyword* it's actually quieter than the stock muffler. Nice, seeing how I (in contrast to many) would rather not hear anything coming out of the tail pipe. But it still has a low mean growl to it, and when you're at WOT...very nice. I am very pleased with the sound of the muffler; the installation...well that is another story.
