i guess kelisa stock gear ratio at higher gears are not meant for accelerating, more for cruising so its more difficult to spin the engine faster at higher gears to achieve high rpm, so more difficult to get high exhaust velocity. i think the same goes for most daily car stock gearboxes.
thats why 3-1 or bigger piping really good for pickup, at lower gears its easier to go i.e. 7-8k rpm and bigger pipe size can be used effectively in this case
ooh fark..lets do it hahaha

Added on October 12, 2011, 2:57 amkeep the 4-2-1, keep stock piping, if midbox is straight and has larger diameter internal pipe than bullet, then keep it and remove the bullet, remove s-flow and replace with straight flow muffler that has same internal pipe size as ur stock piping or close enough. Make sure straight flow muffler at the back has diameter not more than 0.5" from ur stock pipe but if u can find same size is always the best, can use more than 0.5" but not efficient so best to avoid. most exhaust shop will say can use much bigger diameter muffler but does not say whether it is the best for ur car
midbox position plays a big role in the exhaust powerband so pay attention to the location in ur system. basically shorter distance between midbox and extractor will boost power at high rpm and longer for lower rpm.in general 12-18" for higher rpm, 18-30" for midrange and 30-42" for high torque at lower rpm, but anything shorter than 12" can lose out on potential power plus its not possible to fit a midbox at 12" after extractor, that would be near gearbox or crossmember d. i think for auto its best to use distance between low and mid range, something like 24-36" as gear shift point is usually in this rpm area
more specific distance i would need some info on ur engine.
noise wise, i like to think of the noise level of a muffler as a function of its body to pipe size ratio. when comparing 2 mufflers, i.e. given the same body dimension, the smaller internal pipe will sound much lower. so if u have a tight noise regulation rule, get the biggest body muffler u can fit under ur car having smallest internal pipe that flows enough for ur engine and application. plus silent and fast car looks more sophisticated hehehe
bottomline, never use sflow if power is what u want.

my car is campro 1.6.so tat means after i take out d bullet,d performance oso same,rite?if i use bec ori midbox instead of my current midbox,is it ok?
