Videos of V6's without mufflers?

[JSTCOZ]

Hey guys,

I see on the forums all the bagging out of guys with no mufflers (just a straight pipe) on their V6's and was wondering if anyone who has done it to their car could upload a video for me to hear one. Can't find any on youtube =/ . And i know people might start flaming for me asking this, but everyone baggs and I have never even heard it before, so would like a listen if anyone has got one.

thanks

Half an hour and two 13mm spanners and you can see for yourself .

Also jump on you tube and search for anything with no exhaust and you'll get the idea. Basically sound the same as anything with a really poor "sports" exhaust. Just really really loud.

Actually sounds a lot worse in real life than on the video.

Every time I have the zorst of mine I cant help starting it up haha. It sounds deep at idle and burbles a bit but as you increase the revs the note gets higher/quieter. Its amusing for a few minutes

Gotta do a zorst swap on the pulsar soon too. Should be different. Flat-plane 4 banger lol

i did it to mine and lasted about a week before the cops sent me a letter telling me to produce my car into the police station for a rwc check it passed but it cost alot of money to get the car up to scratch in the 3 days they gave me to produce the car.

The reason alot of people dont do it because the v6's dont sound good realllly loud.

But I will say one thing, before I took out my last engine I started it with no cat back (stock exhaust manifold) and it sounded like arse.... Then when I put in the new engine with extractors I started it up with no cat back, sounded a shitload better...... I still wouldn't run it like that everyday but haha

Just do what soop said, undo your exhaust after your cat, get an old clothes hanger to hold your exhaust up, then go for a drive around the bloke, i can garentee you wont want to keep it that way lol

its shit. just weld a cannon to the end of the extractors for wank factor and giggles

wow thats a mad idea while ure at it take ure intake piping of cut a whole in ure bonnet and run air str8 in with no filter would be a pretty decent power gain!

seriously but there is no point running a str8 through exhaust on a car because ure engine needs back pressure to run economical. too much back pressure is bad and not enuff e.g no mufflers is bad to

take ure mufflers out and see how many ks u get to a tank of fuel and then compare to with mufflers.

oh and it sounds rank to.

sounds like a 4 pot with a cannon lol

[JSTCOZ]

might give it a fo to see what it sounds like, is it possible to get a pipe welded through the centre muffler to look like it is a real muffler?

[soop]

Sure is... Sound like crap though. Get a straight through muffler for 35c.

[padrickz88]

Or just put a pipe there? the cops wont care how many mufflers you have, if they think its to loud they will defect you.... I can garentee no cop pulls people over with insanely loud cars then looks under the car and says "Oh wait he has 2 mufflers? dont worry about this defect, its on me..... Have a nice day good sir"

one of my mates has a '84 falcon with a catback, the mufflers empty now and it sounds real brootal old skool, its one of the best 6s ive heard so far. very similar to a speedway car. he hasnt been defected... yet

[thekid93]

I made up a 2.25 in one and dumped it at the diff , Just my old factory one and cut up and welded.
And it was nice and loud at 1500-3000 , soon as it hit over 3 grand, shit as ####, was off in 2 days and my lukey system back on. Ended up selling to a mate with a vx wAgon auto, and it's not as loud in his but sounds like a truck when he gets up it,

Auto mAy run fine but in my manual , sooo much dam drony

Nice thread dig.

Honestly, the best sounding V6 I've heard was my old Series 1 VN running stock headers and a standard 2.5" Redback cat-back system. Had a nice meaty growl, and wasn't so loud that it drew attention.

Honestly, I've never heard many good sixes since then... I lose faith whenever I hear an I6 falcon with a zorst :P

[klampy]

i quite like this, its my wifes VX, lukey 2.5 cat back no resi. otherwise its stock.
