but none of these 3 sounds are acheivable with our 6 cyl engines because simply 6s,8s, and 10s all have their distinct sounds and to me 8s sound the best and 10s the worst... generally

This one is from another current thread. The exhaust is home made by a member who lives in Belgium.

I think he was even selling those, but the Euro is too high so no one buys.

What's with the "Harley" comments 2 negative statements on the latest posts, I am 69 years old and ride a 98 Sportster, my wife rides a 06 Dyna, trips into the states of 4 to 500 miles per day are routine, is this list inhabited by a bunch of woosies?

I think the correct definition is: old, b;tchy, crotchety, overly opinionative, hate life and everyone in it, woosies

Yes.

I don't know what a Canadian means by "woosies", but this isn't a Harley forum. If you don't like what you read, don't read it. There are a lot of people out there that don't exactly have the softest warm heart for Harleys. If you like them fine, but when they are used as a general point of reference, you shouldn't take such quick offense my friend. Get over it.

And yes, I like Harleys, but I haven't found his comments all that negative, not do they bother me, I hear them all the time.

Harleys aren't motorcycles, they are fashion accessories that happen to be motorized.

Oops, did I type that out loud?

finished the downpipes and catback today, 2.25" dp's with a pair of high flow cats where the 2ndary cats used to be, catback goes dual 2.25" into a single 3" all the way back to the muffler.

im still on the fence about the muffler we used, we may need bigger tips?

we made it with a factory style attachment between the dp's and catback so you can use it with a combo of either the stock dp's or stock catback

Looking good.

Personally i like the tip size but its almost as if the canisters are too little leaving a lot of room "open" to the eye.

Being that small and straight through do they muffle sound much at all?

After I heard this clip of two flowmaster delta 10s i haven't heard a better muffler yet on a crossfire. Its louder than stock but not too loud, has a euro sports car sound with a little american muscle, and almost no rasp = win.

Does someone know how to contact the guy that has made a home made exhaust in Belgium.

I really like that sound, and I am going over there with my car in 1 month. Never know if i will install it straight away over there.

Sweet.
Looks like you may need bigger tips to fill the space (IMO).
Also, the link didn't work for me.

Cheers.

I for one think the car is very unique and needs a unique sound. The large coffee can exhausts wouldn't work. The current exhaust is a little quiet at idle, but sounds good as you step on it. So I quess I would like a sound somewhere between a ZO6 and a Ferrari!? Don't know what that would sound like. But might be interesting.

Rob,

Have you or anyone else considered an electronic cut-out. I know on the old SRT-4 we put an e-cutout in place of the cat. It allowed us to stay relatively quiet until we wanted to be loud...We mounted a two-way switch in the dash and worked great... I know for the N/A an e-cutout could possibly damper performance because of the loss of backpressure, but in the SRT's that loss would actually help performance due to the FI....correct me if I'm wrong, but that would be an interesting experiment to hear/see/feel an e-cutout on a SRT-6.

I do also agree that the tips may need to be larger. They just don't seem to fill up the space well enough.
