Is it true that the sedans and hatchbacks have slightly different exhausts? Because I have a sedan and am interested in the exhaust.

What kind of fuel mileage gains can we expect? Code Red have you noticed any improvement in fuel economy?

As with all free flow exhausts you see slight improvements in gas mileage. I don't have my scangauge in but I usually get 32~ mpg

The back looks like it's extended out further.

the sedans are longer, and will not fit properly with the exhaust systems. i had to get a pipe extended out from the muffler to make it look normal, it also had to get bent downward slightly because it hung a little higher.



edit: srry for the massive pix, i thought i resized them...

Well... sorta. It has to do with sound waves (physics) and its relation to the path it travels (in this case the pipe). Like the pipes in a pipe organ. Bigger pipe produces a louder, lower octave, sound; greater amplitude with lower frequences. Smaller diameter pipes produce a quieter, higher pitched, sound; lower amplitude and higher frequency. If you remove the muffler and resonator (which is really just another muffler) then, yes, more restrictive = less loud. With the right combination of mufflers and resonators, it is possible to have low restriction and mellow exhaust note. To my knowledge there isn't a system in the aftermarket that does this because, quite simply, people associate the sound with performance. And, since sound is more noticeable than actual gained HP, systems that can be heard sells!

This one has a resonator after the cat already.

Unless you're building it on the car (on a lift), I'm thinking you're probably going to be disappointed. Not as easy as it looks.

In fact, we build 3 or 4 before we build a jig (just to get the dimensions and angles exact), as well as the hanger attachment points, bends, and angles.

WOW, that actually sounds very very good. And I am used to the bark of much more potent engines, no offense.

Just getting a muffler will change the sound, not as much as getting all the piping.

Just a mufler will not give you any power gains though, a full catback is the only way to open up the exhaust enough to add hp/torque.
