Title: MRT exhaust installed
Post by: ecoboostsho on December 23, 2017, 06:56:16 PM
Installed the MRT axle back (basically mufflers) system today. It sounds great outside the car and I really like the sound. I do get a bit of drone but nothing obnoxious that I can't live with. Tips are all lined up and install was simple with a sawzall. I only have these crappy pics because it was already dark out and lightning was lacking but you get the idea.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171223/6074417f1fef6868ce39a0c606286622.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171223/b893499a1ce7a34e1a75b8c48dff51dd.jpg)

I really like the MRT's and the OEM Gen 4.2 mufflers cost almost as much!

Not sure if I'm OK with drone though....

Agreed. I'm pretty sensitive to it so maybe I need to turn up the radio and chill. At least I can finally hear my car now!

I would take the Drone over the Raspy Rasp any day IMO!  Z
If I had a second chance would of went with the MRT Exhaust and PPE DP which would of ended costing the same as the Corsa!  Z

How are you liking the exhaust so far ? It's been a while so I'm curious and did you get used to any drone?

It doesn't bother me a bit! Granted I don't take it on super long drives across the country but I love how it gets the car noticed a little more without being obnoxious. Startups are as good as they get for a V6 and the exhaust has held up well to Minnesota winter's.

Awesome , the only thing is I wish more videos with sound are available. The one MRT video it sounds great. You don't have any sound videos do you?

Well I don't. I could make a quick one from inside the car but it would be with my phone and less then quality if you know what I mean...your call.

Here are some vids...

Cold start (sorry car is a mess...just snowed)

Cruising
https://youtu.be/twnJxZ63FpY

WOT
https://youtu.be/uNIeR2Mqssw

If I'm honest these videos seem to minimize the drone...it's probably a little worse then the video makes it out to be although I haven't listened with headphones. I hit the turn signal so you would have a reference noise for comparison...
