Installed my new Xforce TBE last week and am thinking the Xforce mufflers are too loud for me (I use the car for work and its not a good look for me when all the other managers are driving Landcruisers and im driving around a liberty with a big exhaust!). Im thinking of either changing back to the stock mufflers or the stock mufflers and the Y pipe. Im just wondering if anyone has any ideas on the amount of power i would be losing over keeping the full TBE.

If I change just the stock mufflers I was planning on using some Steel Putty to make some kind of cone shape inside the larger pipes to smooth out the step between the Xforce Y pipe and the smaller diameter standard mufflers. Not sure how well this will work but I figure its bound to reduce some turbulance.

Of course! I forgot there was a volume setting built into the ecu

Talking of the retune when are you coming down to do it Matt, I'm getting excited about the prospect of using s# mode again
