What mufflers???

On a C4 Melrose headers and pipes.

What are the recommendations.

Lean towards Borla but seems only NOPI see them in Atlanta?

Language barrier issues?

Only experience I have with C4 exhaust is the Corsa system my buddy has on his '96 GS. Super nice as all Corsa stuff is. Has a wonderful tone at WOT w/o any drone at cruise.

On vote for Corsa.

There won't be much cruising hopefully Track only car.

Thanks

Corsa here, also. If for track only, are you concerned with noise restrictions at some tracks?

I had Corsa on my LT4 street/track car, but if you want to save some weight (it was a heavy sucker) you would probably be better off having a muffler shop fab up a custom system & would likely spend less than what a Corsa will run. IIRC mine was over $1,000.

Looked & sounded great & yes NO DRONE.

track only, save your money and have a muffler shop run some strait pipes for a few hundred bucks.

My corsa C4 system weighs a lot less than my self made mild steel @ my buddies muffler shop did.

That is what I did with my C4 ST2 car and added Flowmaster mufflers at the rear. Recently changed to no mufflers and both pipes exiting behind passenger rear wheel.

What db level are you shooting for?
I'm pretty sure for all but Roebling mine is "quiet" enough (90ish):
383, stainless works headers, bullet cats, dual pipes to stock LT1 mufflers

When I finally realize mine will never see the street again I'll pull the cats and have a racing muffler of some kind with tips I can rotate to meet noise regs.

And WHEN ARE WE GONNA SEE THAT BEAST on the track???????????

If this is true track-only, why waste the weight on a full length exhaust? Have it dump in front of the rear wheels and put a race muffler or two on there.

I am converting my car to track only this year my exhaust exits right under the diff. I have headers to bullet cats (from when it was on the street which are now my "race mufflers") to straight pipes and turn downs by the differential.

Don't plan on traveling but don't want a racket either. Where's you out.

June NASA event. Depends on what breaks during break in?

I wonder what sort of restriction AMP will have? That and Skip Barber will probably be it?

I am of the opinion noise does not equal power.

The pipes allow for racing muffles behind the x-pipe I have seen some that are 4" in diametrs and seems they will fit?

Not exactly main stream but that is where they belong.

The Random Tech pipes are nice SS and pretty darn light.

30 lbs from headers to the end, less mufflers

That is where we are going with this. Two borla rounds behind an X pipes and then out the sides instead of "UP". The parts just about do that. Though I think not designed that way?

Getting close to pushing that button. Just that nagging doubt over the sound? I don't want NASCAR loud?

I don't know about the turn downs? Out the sides is more acceptable to me.

Had a smart guy tell me that the rear section is lower pressure... not sure I bay that any of that matters?

No matter what it will $400 worth of something.

Got to happen this weekend.

I'm a big Magnaflow fan! All 3" pipe.


If I where to do it again, and I probably will at some point, I'd just run it straight out the back and modify the rear bumper accordingly.

I do get a lot of compliments on the sound...

Basically I took a 180 degree pipe and cut it to make a turn down, but it doesnt go any lower than the pipe it is attached to. I dont have pictures now because my drivetrain is not in the car.

TJM

I can hear why! Sounds grand!!!
