i have a question...i want to get a sportier muffler, but i cant make up my mind whether to buy a straight flow or an s flow. my car runs on a 1jz-ge engine which is safe to say rated over 180hp. i want to choose the s flow because my car has an automatic transmision. however, some people will say straight flow because it will be a waste of such good power of the engine if i used s flow. btw im aiming for good pick up speed without having to compromise so much on the top speed.

eventhough you want to aim for pickup, but i bet the automatic transmission will make things seemed 'unnoticable'

what car are u having there anyway.... aristo? i guess, you can go for any type of muffler.... it depends on your taste. if you're aiming for power, i'd say a whole exhaust system upgrade is a must.

you can also get an SAFC and tune it for better performance.

hmmm...so you are saying it is ok to go for either straight flow or s flow? i drive toyota mark ii jzx90...from what ive observed, in other countries they modify their automatic cars with straight flows and get good result as well. but their engines are like 3500cc++
btw, my current exhaust system has only a midbox in between the extractor and muffler

if i were you,i will changed to special tuned header/xtractor first that suit your engine.the piping will stick to the ori.bigger piping not always better.regarding the muffler,i would just say the N1 will be better.

If you don't mind the irritating loud noise that will be bothering you all the way while you're driving, just get a good extractor, bullet and pipings for a straight flow.

the bigger the muffler 'stomach', usually the better it is at reducing noise, unless the fiber material inside it already finish or not 'fit' enough

heard from my friend, stainless steel can stand that long too after 3 years sure koyak, is it true?

Because the exhaust piping will heat up so hot until it can't handle
