Hey guys, I have a lame v8 rx7 and I'm putting dual 3" magnaflow 14835 stainless mufflers with 7" long 4" dia tips on my car thoguht i'd share a mock up pick for now




Please ignore the lame 275 nittos also, they don't handle very well

These mufflers clear the stock heat shields with a bit of bending of the 'shields.. I would probably run some fibreglass around the tops if it's tight to stop resonatin!

Heres the specs from the oem site.. the 4" x 4" tip would prolly fit better...

Yeah, v8 powered FCs with dual magnaflow suck...

 

Clearly between the v8 upsetting the weigh balance and the magnaflows, it just has to suck........

 

not to hate on rotary powered cars but this car would probably run circles around the hack job na-t2 swaps people do

 

i like those mufflers actually

 

Please also note I just used a couple of pieces of wood to hold them up for now, i'll improve their fitament when finalized...

 

Clearly, you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
A properly done V-8 swap does NOT "upset the weigh (sic) balance", there are plenty of cars on the V-8 forum with corner weight data that prove the point.

 

how much did you get the exhausts for?

 

Yeah, pretty lame. Whattaya need 4" outlets for anyway? You gots no apex seals to blow out the pipes...

 

Clearly sarcasm has escaped you.

 

Possibly.

 

If you couldn't detect the sarcasm, my username should have at least given you a hint that I wasn't serious.

 

You're right.
I am a moran.

 

From the Urban Dictionary -

Moran - The preferred method of spelling "moron" by morons.

 

Just so.

 

epic thread win....haha

The car is also an automatic... if you were hoping to flame further



Oh, here's better angle without the drag radials I tried to blatently include in the pic...

 

Is this the same red S4 that was sitting on that shop on 11th street?

 

which shop is that? not that i'm aware of as i've only had it since summer and it came from edmonton

 

This thread = win.

To the OP: what's left until it's on the road? FWIW I've been really happy with the tone of the magnaflows ever since I pieced mine together. I run a very similar tip even.

The car has been done for a couple of years. I bought it completed. I have just gone nuts and I'm throwing...

cnc'd ls6 heads (60cfm gain intake 40 exhaust), comp cam, pushrods, lifters, timing set...

And many more parts at it... It will be slow!
