I agree with Terry on quiet mufflers...I've got a
N13 Pulsar with a 2 1/4" exhaust and a hi flow cat (off a Lexus V8) and a Lukey
turbo muffler...as soon as you get a few people in the car or go up hills or on
a "rich day" it sounds like a helicopter...not very good for me either
since I've had "industrial deafness" since I was a kid...you cant hear the radio
or people talking to you in the car .Makes great noises at 6500+ rpm for a
stock motor though ;)
I'm wondering what I could put on the L20B that's
better flow than the factory type setup, but also with a better sound (better
meaning quieter than original if possible too). Maybe I should just go with the
factory system until I need the extra flow eh? I'm not too sure how quiet the
factory system is anyway since at the moment it's sheared off after the first
muffler (crappy weld joint probably)
What about those Dynomax mufflers? Are they quieter
again than Walkers?

Dave,
Walkers are good and I've used them on the L powered Datto for years as
they are well priced and last forever even in Canberra (muffler shops do well
here with our winters). You usually only need one to keep an L engine quite
(can't do that with a Lukey or HiTech as they are too noisy.) I prefer to hear
the induction noise over an exhaust barking these
days.

Can anyone tell me if those super turbo
mufflers are any good for 4cyl engines?
I've been using them on 6cyl and 8cyl engines
for years with good results and I just love the sound of them
I have a 2" high flow walker super turbo
muffler that I haven't even used yet sitting around and also happen to have
a few fairly long lengths of 2" piping with L series manifold flanges
allready on them, so if that walker is a good muffler to use it'll all go
together perfectly and save me a bit of cash. I also have a 2" rear
mounted twin tip muffler with "Wilospeed Performance exhausts" written on
it, which would you guys recomend I use for maximum flow effeciency cause
this will be my first car I intend to enter in hill climbs and the such, so
I want the best possible performance I can get from it.
Also can anyone recomend somewhere in brisbane
(southside if possible cause I have to pay to get the car towed there) where
I can get my exhaust installed cheaply since I'm supplying the muffler,
piping and it's allready got the correct flange on it surely you'd think
that would reduce the price but I rang two of the bigger muffler joints and
they seemed more pissed off than anything that I wanted to supply my own
parts.
Thanks in advance
Dave
