Random Technology Converters
Anyone has any information on the Random Technology High Flow Converters. Only information I've found that they bolt on directly, replacement of your stock converters. Any hp figure or combination performance set up?

DJackman -
Since I sold by B&B Bullets, I am craving a bit more sound at regular speeds than my Magnaflow catback provides.
Did the Random Tech cats give you more volume at regular throttle applications, or only at Heavy throttle.
The Magnaflows sound GREAT with the top and wondows up, but with the top down I need more sound during normal driving.

Fore58 and Yell03,
All what Ramdom did to the sound of the Corsa is amplified it. The loud "Euro" type. It did not cause any change in frequency, just louder. I even retain the No Drone Corsa in known for which Im glad it did. So think of it as a Corsa sport with an amplifier. The sound is louder from Idle all the way to redline. This is all I can say what Ramdom did to my Corsa, but as far as any other exhaust that you may put on, I have no say.
Also I got the Ramdom after I put the Corsa Sport on, so I never got to chance to hear the sound of Ramdom with my stock exhaust.

I remember someone put on the RT's with stock exhaust - woke them up just a little. Sounds like a smart idea - much less $ than cat backs, no drone, more power.....win, win deal!
I considered it, but I'm not going to do it, b/c my Borlas are loud enough for me. I'm afraid I might not like it any louder.

I've got the Melrose headers with RT cats and the RT X-pipe. I kept the stock mufflers and tailpipes. The car is very quiet; almost too quiet. The headers really woke the car up though.
