Hey hey.

So I have an X-Force Mild Steel system - 2 ½” Center Pipe with Hotdog. 2 ¼” Y Pipe into 2 Mufflers with 3” Tips.

I'm really enjoying the sound it gives the car but want that little more loudness when giving it some.
So I rang 'A Muffler Mart' near my work at Rocklea and the bloke suggested I get the Hotdog Resonator in the Center Pipe removed and replaced with a straight through pipe. He also said that should give a bit better burble sound also.

Has anyone done this little adjustment on their exhaust before with good results ? Or can confirm this would give me that little louder sound plus burble I'm after ?

1 word: Quadssss Sounds alot less like a fart and more like a Subaru!

How much were your quads ?

$260 I think? I got the ultrex ones that had to be tweaked a little

Stop teasing him, they aren't available anymore I also have a set.

You won't get burble no matter what mufflers you have, you need UEL headers as the stock EL headers sound like a honda. If you remove your centre muffler I dare say your exhaust will become raspy and droney.

My budget is unfortunately always low, so buying quads or UEL headers is something that is way off. I do plan in the headers though
That's why taking the hotdog out seems better for the shirt term because its a cheap mod. Dam money!

Sorry to come to this party late guys... Have been MIA from the forums lately... I've done this mod Jayradd. Replaced the biggest resonator with a straight through 3" pipe. Does sound louder and awesome... And gives a bit more burble over 3,000rpms. Cost me $100.

But also what Zach says is true also... That's why I always like shifting just above 3,500rpm to maintain that slight burble.. Raspy and droney... Not too much... Or maybe I'm just used to it now.

Apologies for the bad quality of the photo... was taken with the iPad...

and sorry for spamming this thread... I'm done now! haha!

Thanks for the input d-Chang I was quoted $80, cheap mod.
I'm thinking I'll just do it I'll keep the hotdog, can always put it back in if the droning is too much. I'll update on how it goes.

Did it this morning, cost $80. I like it
I've got pictures on my profile if anyone is interested >>>
