Hello Evrbody! Pls help me to choose a rear silencer! Wich one will give the greatest sound to my Paseo 1,5 5E-FHE? :D

[Paseo2nr]

anything less than a magnaflow will give a deafening horrible-sounding raspy glass-shattering tone. trust me. :hokus-pokus: experienced firsthand

[i_sash]

What about Remus?

[riko666]

theyre a good company...apparently their mufflers give you a lower " bassier " sound, which is good. im getting one hopefully soon enough, they are a bit expensive though seeing as they are a reputable company (i.e. they actually race, and have done so for years, aint one of those *****ty ***** boyracer end cans which are made from a few coke cans)

[Paseo2nr]

they are a bit expensive though

c'mon Riko, tell the truth. they're VERY expensive

[riko666]

shhh, he doesn't know ;)

[i_sash]

actually, I'm from Moscow and as far as I know shops do not offer remus mufflers designed for Paseo here. But from the other hand universal mufflers prices begin from 90$ and go up to 200 or smth/// I guess 150-200$-one would be a good choice!?<_< magnaflow mufflers ain't cheaper anyway.

[Paseo2nr]

true, but the sound is worth it trust me. I've had experiences with both styles of mufflers, i'd take my magnaflow over some straight-through can any day.. plus, paying a little more for something you can get is better than paying a lot more for something you can't get.

[i_sash]

So, wich model of magnaflow should I look at?

[Paseo2nr]

mine is a simple straight flowing muffler with an offset tip. it's ovular with dimensions of i think 4x9x20 tip to tip. 2.5" inlet, 2.5" outlet with an adaptor welded on to the stock exhaust.

[ms-glanza-cyprus]

why dont you consider making a custom exaust with just a little backpressure? Mine's a freeflow custom made backbox and it makes a roar no lion can whistle :)

PM me I can fix you up with one. Pretty good quality too , and cheap.

[Paseo2nr]

there's a difference between a custom exhaust, and an aftermarket muffler. the whole exhaust requires new larger-bore tubing and mandrel bends (if you want a good one), but if you go much larger than stock, you lose all sorts of torque.

[riko666]

yeh, what dev said. not to just ignore what you say mario but sticking a backbox on the end of your exhaust will do very little if anything. if you want something worthwhile (for a paseo....powerwise) you go with slightly larger than stock bore the full length of the system + mandrel bends to maintain some backpressure whilst still provide a greater flow. and i think that by doing the whole system not only will it be slightly louder but "bassier" too as you are not squeezing air through a small tube then outuva huge hole (which makes the bee-like tinny sound)

and i dunno, i dont like " free flow " backboxes....on a car like the 'seo it'd just make it sound tinny and bee-like, perhaps since your car is turbocharged itll produced a different sound as the turbocharger itself actually acts as a muffler, quieting the sound and perhaps creating a different effect

[Paseo2nr]

that's a different story, if it's turbocharged, the turbo gives backpressure, you don't need to worry about it in the exhaust.

[riko666]

yeh i know, but i mean if you stick a " straight through " backbox on a turbo then its less likely you'll get the !Removed! / bee sound because the turbo provides some muffling (i.e. backpressure)

[Paseo2nr]

ah, i wasn't talking about the sound, merely the backpressure.
