New Muffler
Well dropped her off this morning to get the new muffler put on. It is the AeroTurbine 2540. Will post up some pics and vids when I get her back tonight or tomorrow morning. Hoping for the best, they are re plumbing the car to get a good straight shot into the muffler for the best effect. Before I had just an 18" by like 5" BOMZ can on there, now it will be just the aeroturbine, if it is still a little too noisy I am going to put a RB silencer or something on it. But in reallity as long she is a little quieter I won't have any issue with it since she was putting out around 90db outside the car under load, (100db in the cab) as measured with a radioshack db meter.

Ok, with just the muffler it is a bit loud. We registered ~96db at 34ft w/ the radioshack meter. Not too bad overall does need an additional silencer, I am opting for a RB pre-silencer. The sound is a bit tinny but still has enough bass so that you can feel it. Will get some sound up by the weekend.
Note: I think they would probably work better if not possitioned after the axle, tho I got a good 6" or so of straight pipe there I think they benefit from having pipe on both ends.
Overall I am not disappointed for it being the only muffler on the car, but not a good way to run it unless you like everyone looking at you.

remember i told you that it was going to be loud
On a turbo car it was loud, so i knew on a rotary it would be even louder.
on my car so much for it being a sleeper, now everyone just thinks the muffler fell off

I got mine half off, but ya, just need to setup a host spot. But I wanted to make note that in my daring drives I have noticed that my mpg has gone up by like 1-2 and throttle responce is a bit better. Still too loud to run solo.

there is a local shop that sells them, and they had one off another car that came to an unfortinate end. I am running a race header with a 2" collector going into 2.5" piping out the back.
