Hey Steve, I'm kinda tempted to start posting pics of my Aero again just to taunt these fellas ......you know ......kinda like how I was taunting YOU along !!

 

lol, I hear you... the mag is a straight thru muffler and offers no backpressure. when I didnt have the aero in there and just the mag, the turbo spooled really quick & power came up pretty quick (when I'm on it). this setup was great for light to light romps but not practical for the everyday driver. thats why I added the aero. the other thing is my turbo bark is almost non existant now... I still have it but it's very minimal and I really have to be on it to get it to bark. before the aero, i could do it almost at will...

 

hahaha... yeah, now that I have a nice camera, I can join you!

 

Steve-

Here's a question. If I just run the aero, no muffler, no cat. What do you think that would do to the low end? I'm not all that worried about MPG's, just want to get the sound and throttle response.

What do you think of that setup?

 

I suggest putting it where the cat is... if your low end goes, so does your mileage (IMO)... do more research to find out what others sayabout an aero/no muffler setup

 

Your combination of aero and magnaflow brought the low end back, correct? How does the low end compare to when it was stock?

IIRC, you had the magnaflow, lost low end, then added the aero and it brought it back.

 

I honestly couldnt tell you... it's been so long since I did the mag install... plus I have the ATS intake installed now too... that provided a nice bump in low end...

 

Here ya go !!

LOL !!

Last pic is RINGS TO THE REAR !!! Ask God Ram It .... he'll tell you about an installation oopsie.

what is the general opinion on just putting the aero in place of the stock muffler??

mayfair...what is the deal with the rings??

 

LMAO !!!!!

Check out the 2nd pic I have posted above. It looks like a card. It's actually the installation instructions. If you look it CLEARLY shows that the rings MUST face the REAR. Both my muffler shop and God Ram It screwed this up and as a result both Aero's had to be flipped. That's why you see the little pipes in front and back of my set up. It's because they welded it in initially so they had to cut small filler pipes when they switched it back around.
