Anyone who followed my "2 big muffler" thread will know that I wasn't very satisfied with the results in lowering the volume of the highway drone in my car. I have decided to go to plan B and buy an Apexi Active Tail Silencer. Its pretty cool. Its basically a tail pipe silencer that has a spring activated back piece that opens up the exhaust size upon certain exhaust pressure. This allows the car to travel around quietly for daily driving and then scream like a mo-fo when you get on it - exactly what I want. I think I will probably have to have an adapter made for my magnaflow muffler becuase the piece is made for Apexi mufflers which have odd sizes. Anyway, check out the link:

Im having a hard time imagining that this is going to work. You need the exact outlet size that an Apexi muffler has. Magnaflow has totally different tips. Also securing this silencer inside the tip of the magnaflow muffler will problematic. Post pics if you get it to work
 I think this would work better: Exhaust Control Valve (ECV) This post has been edited by Speedy2k: Jul 19, 2006 - 6:05 PM |
