Modified RFL Exhaust
Pictures and video below
Let me first start out by saying that I think the TXS RFL is absolutely awesome as is and it's perfect for the stock turbo. However, once you go to a larger turbo, the drone becomes overwhelming. Don't get me wrong, cruising on the street with the windows down, it's awesome! Cruising on the highway at 75-85mph for an extended period of time? Not so much. :lol: I figured that adding a muffler back into the stock location would be perfect but it would need to be large enough to provide adequate volume to quiet things down and help combat drone/nasty resonance. I settled on the Magnaflow 12649 - 6" round, 24" long, 3" in/out The difference is astounding! It will get a little louder I'm sure but right now, at idle, it's deep but very tame. At cruise on the street, it sounds stock. Highway, it's nearly stock. At WOT? Can't even hear the exhaust :lol: As you can see, it fits perfectly. Sounds pretty good too. I'm very satisfied with how it turned out. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cob...5ada82b6c3.png https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cob...e7f7c3ca41.png RFL exhaust before - After - |

Lol, thats exactly what I did, same muffler and everything! The thing was so damn loud, and when my elderly neighbor came out cause she thought the garbage truck came early it was time for a change. I get compliments all the time how it sounds. Still a bit much with the 4.45 gears at highway speeds, but tolerable.

Haha you pulled the trigger to quiet it down! Sounds good I think I'm going to contact turboxs and see how much jus the axleback part cost

I can't imagine how much more drone you had to have had with the 4.45 FD! I'm still rocking my G85 3.82 and the drone is literally non-existent compared to before.

When I want loud, I can just unbolt the rear section and have a flanged turn down made so that I'm not roasting fuel and brake lines. :) |
I mean it's not super loud right now remember I am starting with the FL so I already have the resonators plus adding the muffler should make it better but I still wanna hear something lol

I'll be looking for the GT axle back portion I haven't asked since I have other things I want more right now lol
|
Do you have a resonator? And/or catless?
I want to try something little tiny bit louder 😂. I'm on Lnf muffler, so it sounds like a catless lnf lol |
