Std gtb muffs vs tuned by sti

[Newbie GT]

Hi guys

Are the quads noisy compared to std gtb muffs?

Any power benefits ?

Do they just bolt up to y pipe and use same hangers as gtb ?
Do I need gaskets?

Thanks very much

Just do it. They fit perfectly and look cool.

A little bit of extra noise, enough to put a smile on your face.
No real power benefits
Yes, they are a direct bolt up
Possibly need gaskets

ahh it depends if there is still a reasonable enough layer left on either the pipes or the muffler itself, but i'd advise scraping that off and using new gaskets

They are very cheap from an exhaust shop

Ok will check his car out tomorrow the y pipe is only 7 months old so might be ok with gasket

There is an exhaust sealer gasket glue too isn't there ? Might be easier and cheap to get muffler place to fit maybe $50?

Is it an xforce system? just out of curiosity...

If it is, those gaskets will be fine to use by themselves as I've seen what they use, I've got one on my car.

It is xforce yes
So you think I can use them ? With some gasket glue or not needed ?

Sorry

You can change the mufflers with the car on the ground if you haven't lowered the car. And if you have,reverse the rear tyres on some blocks of wood. The stock gasket should be fine.

Thanks Kiern

If you have trouble getting them on the rubber hangers, some WD40 will be your friend.

No need for gasket glue if you have the bolts done up properly
