New 2.5" Dynomax on 4kq!
Just did it yesterday.
Put a 2.5" Dynomax Super Turbo muffler on the 4kq. Front
resonator is currently gone but I may put one in there, or maybe a
resonated tip.
Sound is quiet at Freeway and other partial throttle speeds (At
least its quieter than the car!) and burbles nicely at idle. Gets loud
and cool when you get on it. However, it is a little raspier than the
2.5" Borla on my other 4kq. I like the Borla better better for sound
quality but for an everyday driver the Dynomax is better since it quiets
down at Highway speed and around town. Borla is louder on the Gas to.
I will soon have a BTDT for Dual Borla's if anyone is interested.
Friends Dad is going this route on his car. SHould sound nice.
Muffler cost me $30 from Super SHops. Hightly recomended place to
get stuff. This is the Exact same muffler most shops charge $79 or so
for. Supershops just buys them in lots of 1,000 units. (WOW) ANyhow,
their prices are great, $5 handling fee only (REad no shipping) for all
orders under a certain weight. Had a local Hi Performance Muffler shop,
(REad custom, this is the same place that did the system witht he Borla on
my other car and the same place that made a custom Exhast Manifold and
downpipe for my friends Rabbit GTI that now has a TURBO in it)... ANyhow,
they did it for $40 installed with 2.5" Aluminized piping going out the
back. Still have to do the rest of the system up front but not enough
money in the bank for now.
Just thought somebody might want this info. L8R
