TheNOBBLER[RL] Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 I'm running a straight through setup on my '82 Twincam, its a 2inch pipe with a hotdog and a cannon style muffler without the stupidly huge tip, it has a nice rolled lip 2.5inch one instead... It sounds mean as with a nice bark but it drones like no tomorrow! Ask Teddy, he put up with it on our last cruise! I would recomend a straight through glasspack muffler, I used to have a lukey on my ke55 with a 2inch pipe an it sounded great! No drone at all. Quote
kickn5k Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 It sounds mean as with a nice bark but it drones like no tomorrow! Ask Teddy, he put up with it on our last cruise! I`ll second that it sounds great from the outside when you open her up. Just don`t get the cannon with big tip (like leigh`s twinky sorry dude but its real bad) . With a resonator i put a 18" long hot dog on my ke 11 to knock a little out of it for the engineers cert and it droped from 106db to 85db i think and I'm considering leaving as it brings more induction noise with my twin carbs. I have a 5k 4-1 extractors 2" pipe 18" long reso with an offset 2" muffler, but all systems sound different on diferent cars. stu. Quote
smacko84 Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Posted February 1, 2007 Thanks for your help guys, went to a few exhaust places and i don't quite have the $$ to change anything atm. It would be nice but as a daily its not necessary. Quote

Wood§tok Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 you could try keeping the 2" system and chuck a resonator or two somewhere in the middle. should phatten the sound up quite nicely. cheers. ps. my old 2.2 lib with a 2.25 was so loud you would swear a helicopter was hovering just behind the car at 60. :P Quote
