supercharged vt II acclaim
I Got a 2.5 redback Cat Back last week second hand, Its front muffler/rear resonator, Has a Very deep sound when low in revs, witch was what i wanted, and just a nice sound up higher, but you still hear the engine more up at 5000rpm.
I Found the throttle response better to.
And it does not drone like the mrs VR that has a 2.5 Cat back front muffler/no rear resonator.

ya didnt get if from the gold cost did ya?

VX Acclaim S2
Im going to hijack this a bit. I have a VX v6 and its got a 2 1/2" Redback cat back exhaust with no middle muffler but a muffler at the rear. Is that one at the rear a resi, or is the middle the resi. I just want to find something to put in the middle, like a high flow muffler, or something that will dull the note a bit. Coz mine is ****ing loud and a few months back i realised i dont want people looking at me when i drive past them, saying "WTF, why do people do that to their cars?" lol

On sports systems, they are both straight through. The only reason for the shape is to fit the car. But people tend to call round mufflers resonators and oval ones mufflers.
