A cheap fix, take it down to your local exhaust shop and get them to add a piece of pipe in place of the cat, should only cost $80. 2.5 inch all the way through with a freeflow muffler sounds nice on the 3 ltr, add a nice set of Genie headers and she can go aswell.

Yeah get rid of the factory one and add a flow master type and you will get the performance increase and it will still keep the "ricer noise" from being too great. Have a good chat to the guys at Pitstop or Midas for options on Mufflers.

keep saving :wink:

its best to do it all at the same time, can work out cheaper than doing bit here bit there. no you dont need 2 mufflers only reason for a muffler is to quiet down the exhaust. mine has one which is in the middle

I cut the muffler out of my kzn130 and it sounded real throaty with a nice turbo spool on top and still passed warrents, wasn't loud at all, depends on which engine I guess

i got a 2.5'' pipe on my 4d56t with only one of the shortest cobys i could buy and its pretty loud and the turbo whistles like hell thru it like a c-12 cat almost. but it has a very spine chilling growl to it i just love it.
