I checked out their website at http://www.spintechmufflers.com... and although the testimonials from racers (drag, roundy-round, & road racers) looks good, their technical explanation and graphics don't provide enough details for me. Anyone have any insights on this? Their "Pro Street" model is very compact... 4x6x12 ! Or, am I the only Vortexer who surfs muscle car sites to get ideas?

Well, that is honestly the worst flash intro I have ever seen.
Topic related: there is a new STI muffler for the WRX that has a pipe that comes underneath the muffler and recirculates gas in a spin fashion to "pull" exhaust gas out of the exhaust sytem, somebody had it on a car at snowdrift, it went, HISS HISSS HISSSS

They have little "spintraps" in them that I dont really like. I'd get something pretty straight thru (especially for forced induction).

To avoid it, just don't click on the "multimedia".... click on the "traditional" version... 'cuz, yeah, it's kinda cheezy and way too long.

Found some more info... the muffs seem to be fabricated as solid as a brick and their theory apparently works since so many sprint car racers use 'em. However, Off Road magazine did a test of 'em on a 400 c.i. V8... and they were pretty cagey about reporting the sound. Actually, they said if they had to list a negative, it was the sound... which was reported as "not deep"... so, they'll probably not sound "deep" on a 1.8 or 2 liter motor, eh ?

I guess a big a$$ sprint car or ARCA racer have a big enough V8 where it still sounds good!
