Default thanks everyone for your input on bypass pipes

I have finally got my bypass pipes done last week. While I was waiting for the installation I decide to change the mufflers as well. I now got a set of Cargarphic mufflers. The sound is amazing. So thank you everyone for your recommendations.

I am now doing some research on PSS9, anyone have any suggestions?

Albert,

Other than the amazing sounds do you feel any power gain at all?

Thanks

A much smoother rev about 4000rpm. Not sure whether that's real power or just the sound makes you feel faster.

So you went with the cat bypasses. In Cali, it is easier to do the muffler bypasses and stay smog compliant

In the previous thread on recommended exhaust mods, Kevin suggested cutting the mufflers open and removing the packing as one of the mods.

This sounded interesting as I have been looking for a compromise between the stock mufflers and bypasses I experimented with.......as well as an excuse to perform another DIY!

Kevin, can you offer any advise on the procedure for performing the referenced mod ?

Isn't that basically what the RSR mufflers are?
