who has TXS TBE??

Hey guys, I was wondering who has a TXS TBE.

I love the sound of the "Vishnu" exhaust...but wanted to hear what the TXS sounds like. I have heard some others but they sound like a tin can, and not sporty. Anyone have one?

Freddie,

I have the TurboXs Stealth back exhaust (downpipe, high flow cat(soon to be race pipe) and midpipe) hooked up to a OBX muffler. Come to the meet on Wednesday and check it out.

The whistle from the wastegate makes the downpipe sound tinny, but I enjoy it.

But remember, the TurboXS exhaust tapers from 4" at the turbo, to 3" at the bottom of the downpipe, to 2.5" at the midpipe. And there are VERY LIMITED muffler systems you can use with the TurboXS Stealth Back exhaust. Here's a link for the muffler that will fit:

Um...really? TurboXS.com says you can use any muffler that mates to the stock location...

TurboXS Down Pipe, Cat Pipe, and Mid Pipe $727

For those who want to maintain that factory dual tip look, while keeping the exhaust note as quite as possible, can purchase the exhaust system without the rear muffler assembly. The original factory muffler or any aftermarket muffler designed to replace the original muffler with bolt up.

edit: read your link...I certainly wouldn't consider SEVEN mufflers to be "very limited"

The reason I posted the link above, is that most exhaust systems on the market are all cat back versions, and only come in 3" sections. TurboXS' Stealth back exhaust will only allow the use of its own midpipe. Hence, you cannot run just any old cat back exhaust system with the remaining downpipe and high flow cat that TurboXS provides. You will have to run a muffler section that has a 2.5" flange, like that of the stock muffler section.

I was looking for more muffler selections, like those from Apexi', MRT, Skunk 2, etch. But I guess 7 selections isn't that bad

And I know where you can get the TurboXS stealth back for much cheaper than the price above. PM me for more info.
