I haven't had a chance to do the video yet, it's a sedan.

It's an Xpipe manufactured inhouse by Rapid Exhaust in Wollongong, the same guys who do the marriage savers

Just had a listen and drive in Ian's car.

The note is definitely deeper, a tad louder without being obnoxious and has more beat/ separation through the lower end of rev range.

Surprised it didn't drone, it certainly doesn't more so than my stock system with marriage savers.

Hi gents,

Are you guys happy with the x pipe and marriage saver set up now? I bought the marriage savers. Was hoping they would be louder on when I gave it a squirt. Worth doing the x pipe and front muffler delete??

Cheers

Or leave the mufflers and add hi-flow cats. Better sound and removes the biggest restriction from the stock syste.

I ended up going a full system from manta, with 4-1 headers and 100cpi cats.

Nothing beats a full proper system!

I'm purely after a better note. I don't really have any interest in performance. You think the high flow cat into the mufflers I have now may achieve that mate? I used to have a 3" full straight system on an LS1 which I loved the growl on but I have to have something a little bit calmer so my clients don't think I'm an idiot haha

Yeah I think leaving mufflers in place will be more "client friendly" than removing them.
