    Default Hot dog mufflers = rubbish

    Hello there I own a VS 5 ltr, when i bought it it came with pacemaker extractors, and a twin 2 1/5 inch exhaust system with middle muffler and rear resonator NOW! the stupidest thing i did was take off the rear resonator and replace it with hot dog mufflers!!! it may be louder but i have notices a big difference in performence when putting down the foot it roors and makes alot of noise but it does not pull as good as it did with the rear barrel on it. Just wondering whats the best option? the guy at the exhaust shop said he can put back on an oval shaped twin barrel? I still want a nice V8 sound which still makes a bit of noise with out loosing power so could anyone give me some advice to what you would replace the hot dogs with? thank you

    Thanks for the reply will this bring back the performence because the twin hot dogs are shocking heaps of noise but less reaction

    Also with the twin inlet, twin outlet straight thru ressie depending on the size of the barrel in one of these will this determin better performence? Because i don't want to put one of these on and still have not as good perforamce as i first had! if only i could remember what ressi was originally on it, it was not an oval shape it was a round shape and was not a massive looking thing it was a twin in twin out.
