The two that keep popping up for me are 'Manta' and 'X-Force'. Significant price difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a popular brand for turbo exhausts too I'd say x-force offers the best quality and sound of all the options on the market. I have an ultrex 4" dump and 5" cat and its been fine. Only issue is there is no measure for reinstalling the lower bolt of the heat shield like it does on the stock dump. x-force have this in place though so its 100% bolt-on like the factory one. I think x-force are the most popular brand of them all, many shops include their exhausts in their relative performance packages. I have heard both ultrex and x-force on turbo cars. I personally prefer the x-force, but will be going with ultrex because 1. they are based in perth and 2. they are cheaper. TL;DR: x-force, ultrex, and manta are all decent enough brands and you can't really go wrong with any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It is I Member 37 Member For: 2y 6m 10d Posted 02/12/21 03:13 AM Share Posted 02/12/21 03:13 AM I can speak for mine I have standard dump, high flow cat, 3inch xforce It's a smooth tone, on the loud side when it idles, sometimes pops on high rpm gear changes (more when it was stock) and under WOT it's a loud, smooth tone. Sounds like an inline 6 motor my mate has an xforce 4inch, louder. He has a split from the last muffler. One side is say 0.5m the other split is about 0.7m. This difference in length causes the exhaust gasses to escape at different times, creating a rumbling sound - think V8 instead of a smooth and balanced i6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hooker muffler I used has cracked twice though, so there might be a better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice work boys Well I'm definitely not making my own, unless do you suppose some PVC pipe might work? 🤔 This one looks alright, different direction to X-Force by retaining a twin pipe setup but seems decent https://www.mrcperformance.com.au/Venom-ford-fg-xr6t-sedan-twin-2.5-stainless-steel-cat Edited 03/12/21 04:29 AM by SydCrazi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
