Question about Tenzo R mufflers

Low DB tone....Ractive man....they may not be the best but they are deep. And....actually ractive has cleaned up all their welds and made them a little stronger.

i got a TENZO R it's pretty loud!!! More high pitched. If you want LOUD, deffently go with TENZO R, if you want deep, go with APEXi or GREDDY.

Low and deep - fairly quiet inside the car. Draws attention on the street, but doesn't attract cops. Here's some pix of mine...

Thanks for the pic BlackDeuce. That the same one I was thinking of getting.

But not now I guess. I'm shootin for a pretty quiet and deep tone.


Anyone see that butterfly valve that goes between the 2 halves of a 2 piece 4-2-1 system? It's supposed to restrict flow so you can "Tune" your exhaust for sound & then open it up when you want full flow/sound. Is one of these worth getting?

There is also a "valve" on some exhaust (basically a silencer) that you can twist to tune the sound of your car. They come on a fireball style exhaust.

my exhaust has a silence and it helps on long trips when the exhaust roaring gets annoying, its definately worth it

The valve I'm talkin about is operated by a cable & a lever INSIDE the car, so you don't have to get out & screw with the can.

When I find the Ad I'll post a link or pic.

Actually no, it isn't . It's an In-Line butterfly designed to go between the headder collector & cat , or between the 2 halves of a 2 piece headder. It restricts flow through the pipe. It doesn't redirect to a straight pipe.

I used to have 2 of the ones you're talkin about mounted in a Nova that I used to own in High School. Very fun!
