Has anyone used these mufflers???

I am looking for mufflers and found these, has anyone used them, or ones like them, if so, how loud were they? I have a turbo motor with a corksport 3" dowpipe and plan to have a 2.5" Y pipe with duals.

Here is the link:

Wow, I guess we need to be psychic to figure this one out, huh?

It would be nice if we got a pic or the brand/model of those mufflers?

They look like a typical ebay fart can. I'd say the will work but sound could be an issue but then again you have a TII driveline in there so sound will be low compared to using those cannons on an N/a. Honestly I can tolerate a TII with open downpipe so I don't really know if I would need mufflers at all

They are kinda cheap but I don't think a pair of mufflers should have to cost hundreds. I only drive this car on the weekends mostly.

Jon, a friend of mine has a similar muffler on his Neon (yah it's a riceburner) and it gives a decent rumble/growl. But that's on a Neon. I suppose if you had two of them it'd be ok. The company we got it from on eBay has since been deleted. Shame. They hat 10000+ feedback rating.

Thanks for the reply, those SR5 Corollas are sought after in some areas, list it on e-bay.

Are you aware of how expensive it is to list a car on ebay? I don't care that much about the car.

Custom taillights? Can I see?

It costs about $40 but if you get a lot more than you were it would be worth it. Take a look at completed auctions and see what they go for. It may be worth it. So far I have sold among othere things a car and an ultralight aircraft on e-bay and came out WAY better than selling locally both times.

No custom lights yet, but I got S5`s.

you do know that the seller wants $22 to ship one of those fart cans.

THis is a bit off topic, but JonEQuest, I just wanted to tell you how much I love your car. I would give my left nut to have one as nice as yours. It really inspires me as far as getting mine running and fixing it up. Keep up the great work man, and I hope someday mine comes out as nice as yours, besides, turbo vets really make me all warm and fuzzy inside.

True!, when shopping for my car I looked at ebay and visited like 13 RX7s all over the place. One guy had SOLD his RX 8 times, that $100 each time he has to post it. The best ebay would do for him is delete the account of the person who won and didn't pay/collect. And if you want to go to small claims that is a huge pain in the @$$ and depending on the judge, he may have expected you to hold on to the car until it is settled. OUCH!

Hmmm, sounds like he had an a$$hole bidding on his car. I just thought I would throw the idea out there.
