Just ordered the same setup from Brian. Looking forward to it. Currently running borla 1 in 4 out, which is pretty loud already. Just looking for a lower tone.
Wachuko... Any problems removing old exhaust nuts?

Great news. Looks like the exhaust system will be waiting at home when get back from this business trip!!!

Photos to be shared over the weekend. Engine is on the stand, so I will not be able to run it for a sound clip But it will look awesome! :D

Hey wachuko, I decided to try out those Quiet Riot baffles as well. My system has a pretty bad drone around 2.8k-3.2k RPM so I asked Brian to send me a cap for one of my tail-pipes in an effort to calm the drone down. I dont like the look of one end getting capped so it will be interesting to see if these baffles do anything to tame it. I have my doubts about the claimed mid-range power increase, but I guess we shall see. Ill post a before/after video in the cabin once they arrive.

Do share your results... it will be awhile before I can have the engine back in the car

quiet riot baffles
 
I used to have Fabspeed Supercups 1 in 1 out and switching to M&K GT3 style 1 in 2 out, I noticed that I lost that certain power I had with my Supercups. Putting those baffles, I noticed the punch I lost was quite back. Not sure about the experience of other, but worked on mine. On taming the sound, I noticed it slightly different but couldn't remember if it toned down a bit.

FWIW, my '84 has stock H/E, M&K 1 in 2 out (straight back, lined up w/ trunk lid edges) w/ 2 1/2" outlet pipes.

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1428007515.jpg

I had asked Ben to install some baffles as I expected loudness.

So, the muffler was installed with some baffle inserts brazed in that narrowed the outlet to about 2 1/4" and were perforated. Pretty loud and made a truly horrible tweeting noise on throttle.

I ground those out (not fun). Straight through was really loud, but a glorious sound. The noise level would set off all the car alarms in the parking structure at my office.

So, I got two internal block-off pipes from Ben and drilled a 1 1/2" hole in each and installed them. Somewhat less loud, but the driver side was noticeably louder. Note - as a 1 in setup the inlet was almost a straight shot into the driver side outlet.

Finally, I got the Quiet Riot baffles. After removing the passenger side block-off/baffle, I installed the Quiet Riots in both outlets. Sound is very good quality and maybe 20-25 percent quieter than no baffling. I.e., not quiet by any means, but when I take the car to work now it only sets off one or two car alarms. Good enough!

Ben, and now Brian, make a very nice product, w/beautiful welds and perfect fit. But, you may have to experiment a bit to get your sound level and sound quality to your liking.


BTW, nice project.

Not really installed... just in place without gaskets and just a few nuts to move it out of the living room :)

Thank you for the post. I should have ordered the one like yours, with the exhaust tips at each end... oh well... At this point I just want the car back so I can start installing all the cool stuff that I have for it!!

For those with heater boxes - how is the heat compared to stock?

Do a search... I remember seeing a few threads just on that.

You carry those loaders out on Border Patrol? Need big pockets? Who makes an 8 shooter?
