Not trying to be funny or a smart ass either, its just the way it is. Mufflers baffle and restrict to quiet it down... a straight through design is going to be louder...also bigger pipes will be louder..
What ET above me says about volume is correct. |
I'm not convinced that straight thru exhaust systems increase power. You do need backpressure. Besides, I'm not looking for a better 1/4 mile time or to have a loud racing bomb. Just want a better sound that doesn't deafen the cockpit (or the neighbors), but a "slight" power increase which I expect with the JBA's. Is that a reasonable request? Does anybody have any numbers that show the combined effect of a CAI and a good axle back exhaust?
