Muffler eliminator observations!
Well I just got the eliminators on Friday and I love them.The
sound is not too loud,but very noticible.After spending alot of the day
Sunday driving the car,I have several observations about the elims.
1.I noticed NO decrease in low end power.
2.From 3000-5000 rpm the car seems to have MORE power.
3.The only time the noise is annoying is around 20-28 mph,when
you are driving in the neighborhood.
4.At freeway speeds the sound is only a bit louder than the stock mufflers.
5.No real popping on deceleration.
Now these are just my observations,and obviously I have no raw
data to back me up,but it is the BEST 80 bucks I have ever spent!

Put mine on Saturday or should I say Doug at East Coast Supercharging did them for me as we needed to do ...lets just say some welding to get them to mate with the Borla Catback system i was running....and let me tell you , it sounds way better and really didn't feel any kind of decrease in power but I did notice much less resonance....I'm pleasantly surprised with the whole setup :cool: :thumbs:

Since I got the ones from Mid America with resonators in the eliminators mine have gotten louder the more miles I have had them on. They sound better than ever now. :D
