masao, seems that ur bullet is quite long around 18" i think ... and ur exhaust still loud? ...
the unker that fitted in my muffler say adding 1 more 15" bullet to my current piping + 12" bullet will reduce 30% of the noise ... performance wise still not sure ...

maybe 1 day we need to record down the sound and compare also .. haha
Fitted 2 medium sized bullets 2 years ago. Not sure the dimension but the exhaust sound lower a lot. Would be like more than 50%. Some people said more bullets = more power. I don't feel it..Hehe..

What I know is, try to get branded made bullets because that will last long..something like made in taiwan..Don't get locally/china made..People advised me one.

oh thanks for the info man ... one question, did ur car performance drop? ... duno where i heard, 2 bullets will reduce performance due to restricted air flow, which totally differ from wat u heard ..  doh.gif  ...
u still using 2 bullet now? wat type of muffler u using?
*
That unker told me more bullets = more power ...Hahaha...no idea

Still using 2 of them. Fit nicely but the back ones, easy to get hit and scratch when over sharp high bump..Is alright. No damage to internal bullet and piping..

Using s-flow. Before that straight flow. After that, changed to good quality s-flow, pickup seems better....So now, quiet and nice sound ^^

oh means at the time when u were using straight flow + 2 bullets, u don notice any performance drop? ..
i just changed to straight flow recently ... starting to get annoyed by the exhaust sound ..
and thanks to u, i got this great info... haha .. thanks notworthy.gif ...

so now i can start consider getting another bullet and also some Insulflex ... laugh.gif

If you are getting s-flow, make sure ask the unker to test the sound..cheapo one usually RM1XX but good ones near RM300 or more.

Cheapo s-flow also won't be that quiet..Good ones very quiet.

I only believe , more bullets = less exhaust noise... But heavy..haha~

Wanna ask ya...

As I know stock spring for Wira SE is sport spring.

If I change the front to the WAJA stock spring, would it be more comfortable when going over pothholes and bump??

it'll become more bumpy cuz waja is heavier than wira so their spring also harder~

I abit confuse..

More bumpy = more bouncing ?

More comfort = use sport spring ?

More bumpy becuz the spring is hard. Will not absorb the bump.

Sport spring = harder = less bouncing.

But some sport spring not so bumpy.

Ermm...thanks a lot for your advise...

Now I get a clearer picture..

So, if I want comfort, I need to find a soft spring,right?

Usually what is the recommendation on the spring brands if I would want spring that offers comfort but slightly higher than the stock spring?

lemme guess, u are very gentle on the brakes when u hear that sound? its friction caused by water/mist/oxide between the pads and disc.
tomorrow morning, u try harder braking. usually no sound this way.
Yes. Exactly...

Why the way before, there's no sound one..But now, starting to have sound. Quite annoying when slowing down over multiples bump at my condos...

Anyway, to get rid of it??
