  5. You can also try Bestmufflers in Carlton (bestmufflers.com) Chris developed the 3.5 and 4" Xforce systems on my car, so he knows what he is talking about when it comes to the fords.
  6. If your not doing so already, wack a pod filter on it and you should get better induction sound.
  7. Here is a section of my reply to this question in the exhaust thread. "Personally, I love the sound out of my car (the fact that its loud).....with a quad system (only 1 muffler), straight cut gears, blow off valve, noisy fuel pump etc, I think its in the top 10 of XR's in terms of noise LOL ... however, with this being said, the screamer was just wrong .... the sound that it made...... no words..... loud doesnt cover it .... nor does LOUD!!!!. This thing was deafining with a horrible note. It lasted a couple days on my car for testing then came off (my point here is that I like noisy cars, but not with the screamer)" As Master G mentioned, good way to get defected, the noise is wrong. From experience, trust me, you dont want this thing on your car.
  8. Did you say joins back in ??? Technically speaking....or should I say in ricer terms, a screamer pipe does not join back into the system, hence the term screamer. When you hit boost the car literally screams. Very illegal and if not done correctly (ie, if you dont seal between the 2 sections correctly, seeing as though we have internal wastegates) it will sound crap. This is one of the problems we had, getting a good seal was difficult, which means on idle, you could pick up a touch of an exhaust leak sound.

This thing was deafining with a horrible note. It lasted a couple days on my car for testing then came off (my point here is that I like noisy cars, but not with the screamer) Out of curiosity, has anybody ever tried putting a screamer on their car and what did you think??? (PS, not refering to a split dump pipe that flow back into the system). Black Thunder, ill send you some pics as requested of the pod setup, I just have to take some for you mate.
  9. Good point, never thought of it that way.....re::backspin. Just a theory I heard a while back when my mates turbo blades went into self destruction. The mechanic at the time blamed it on no release valve and "apparant" back spin.
  10. mmmm and look at your turbo blades a couple months later .... you will get back spin, not the best way to get sound. Mate did this, his turbo was gone ... if you run small boost not too muchan issue, but if your running higher boost I wouldnt be doint this About the initial question, the GFB Stealth FX is a direct replacement also ... fits in the factory position and is adjustable.
  11. The screamer pipe itself sounded like crap? ← Yeah it sounded like crap ......everybody that heard it agreed with me ..... to be honest, it got to the point where I was embarrased to give it a squirt cause it sounded that bad .... needless to say, it didnt last long on my car.
  12. I had one on my car during the exhaust testing phase, it is VERY loud.....for me to say that its gotta be loud as mine by is made up of loud bits lol .... but all agree'd that it sounded like crap on the car.
  13. What clutch is yours running..... my box gave up at around 320kw, but only after I put the ceramic clutch in the car. ← what happened to your box mate?? I got 304rwkw, and mine seems fine so far.. been running that power since around april or so... mind you, I don't drive it hard. still saving though ← It said bye bye . I did approx 30,000km with the T5 at 300+ rwkw, using a standard clutch, then an extreme organic. The organic died after the 5000km when the car was retuned to just over 320rwkw, and that's when I put the extreme ceramic clutch in .... within weeks I was driving home from work and bang..... there goes 3rd ! ← bugger any symptoms prior to it going bang?? I've done about 10000km on my T5, with upgraded clutch. Did you drive it hard?? I rarely belt it these days, only on the odd occasion. ← No symptoms, it just went. As for driving it hard, not really ... gave it squirts here and there but not thrashing it

  15. Which achievement you talking about? Most $$$ spent on a T. Lol, he doesn't even have that. ← Your right, he doesnt have that, that went to somebody else here. And I believe that car is yet to hit an 11 second pass. If I am mistaken then I withdraw my comment, If I am correct then I suggest we change topics, as there are more powerful cars out there that havent run the times either. End of the day, as long as we all enjoy our cars, who cares! This topic has turned into a bunch of keyboard warriors typing up
