Well while on the topics of exhaust (and while waiting for my wax to dry), I thought I'll post on my cosmetic change to my rear end. It may only be cosmetic, but I'm bored right now and feel like posting.

Anyways, I figured that I probably won't end up changing the exhaust on my Aurion since if I did, I would need a Varex system for the ability to go 'stealth' and I am too pov right now on my student budget to factor in an exhaust. I'm quite satisfied right now with the extra noise from the intake and don't mind the quietness of my exhaust. So if I was going to leave the muffler as is, I though I may as well swap the tips because the stock ones really p*** me off every time I look at them and see the pipe inside.

As well, both my muffler tips weren't sitting in the centre of their cut out, and my right side muffler was actually pushed in a little (first picture attached to display the general idea). The guys down at the muffler shop reckon it was pushed in by reversing into something (rental car... what can you do) so to fix it, they cut out the bent section, restored the muffler to its correct spot and weld some new pipe in. So yeah, that's my excitement of the day. Nothing much, but I feel better now that things look more even.

not sure of the brand to be honest... i didnt really pay any attention to it...

the more i think about it and the more i drive the car, the more i'm not happy with the result...

i have to rethink it, because right now all that i've acheived is a louder noise (dont get me wrong, i love the sound of it!)... i'm gonna have to have a proper chat with some different exhaust shops and come up with a full system... :(

i dont believe that replacing those mufflers has made it any more 'powerful', i think its just all noise...

Nothing wrong with a bit of extra noise :D

Quick Q for DJKOR - Obviously these new tips arent the same as stock - small pipe inside shiny big pipe. Has it made any sound difference? Im thinking this might be the way to go for now cos I dont have the Moolah for mufflers etc. But I want more noise.

It's all mind games. I swear that when I higher RPM the sound from the exhaust is more of a lower frequency but with no change in volume. The mind is quite easy at being tricked, so this would more than likely be the explanation. All it is, is just a 2 inch to a 3.5 inch tip. Glad I no longer have a 2 inch pipe sticking through the middle.
