Any chance of getting some pics of the underside to give my muff shop routing ideas? Does your Mada have the self-leveling rear?

Stillen Dual Exhaust vs Borla

Anyone know how the new Stillen duals compare to the Borla, other than being a little less expensive?

Thanks

There was a very good thread over at TT regarding different exhaust systems, complete with the dyno numbers ran by one of the members over there. I remember him saying that from his testing and data that our engines like back pressure - too free flow of a system actually hurt hp.

The Borla Dual exhaust is one sweet setup:

If anyone wants to see pics on the Armada, shoot an email.

That's an easy one, the Gibson:

Agreed!!

phish: I have the Injen CAI and Gibson cat-back and couldn't be happier. I was looking for a nice, quiet exhaust and found it in the Gibson. Gibson also claims a decent HP gain too - so that's a plus! You won't be disappointed.

Good luck!

so does the exhaust make much more noise than the CAI?? does it feel faster with the gibson exhaust?? im actually concerned with hp to noise ratio..dont want it louder thatn the injen CAI....

Agreed!!

The exhaust is not louder than the intake. The exhaust has a smooth deep sound, and you don't hear it inside like most.

phish - I pm'd you back.

But for everyone else around these parts...

What JB said is correct - the exhaust is not louder than the intake. The Gibson gives off a slight rumble and no drone. In my opinion, it's perfect.

Oh, and I don't know if I'm just imagining things, but I swear the Gibson exhaust actually made the Injen CAI quieter!! I put the Injen on about a week before the exhaust and could have sworn it was louder before the exhaust.

Good luck phish - let us know how you like it.

[Jason B]

You are correct on that. The exhaust helps everything flow better, and can make less noise with both items installed.

 

[Jason B]

That's a tough one,. Each should give about 1-2 more MPG.

 

[hudiyo]

hey jas-10 how did the other exhaust pass the spare tire? do you have a closer picture underneath the spare tire and your exhaust?

How's This?

 

[Jason B]

No, but you don't need to remove the spare.

This is my setup I got to fit Titan Flowmasters to Armada but was pain in the neck. I just wanted to get it done!
It was a lot of labor

 

[hudiyo]

looks good b4ds3ctor. do you have some more pictures under the spare tire?

 

[b4ds3ct0r]

That was basically labor is. Shop guy tried to keep it away from spare tire with trying to keep the muffler high. This is a 3" setup. I'll try to get more pics when i get home..

 

[b4ds3ct0r]

Here is the promised pictures..

I know looks very close to spare tire but I looked at it couple times I dont see any damage on spare tire. Maybe like 1 inch I would say..
