I was wondering if the 5Zigen Fireball exhaust is a perforated core muffler, or louvered. I'm hoping it is perforated. Thanx 4 all ur help! :flash:

i went and looked and it is straight through no preforations or anything from what i could see. It was too long ago when i put my 5zigen on last june to remember what it looked like when the inside was clean. buy yeah no preforations

does the fireball come out the back of the car crokked on some cars?
I've seen some cars with mufflers like the fireball and they're at wierd angles and I don't like it at all.

perforated core means it is straight through free flowing, with holes on the insides. Louvred means that there are little pieces of glass or sumthing like that sticking out of the inside blocking or slowing some of the flow. So is it perforated?

is there a purpose for making it that way, like some kind of underbody clearance issue? maybe its just me, but having it angled like that would make me not want to buy it.

so you're telling me that some of the catback fireball kits come ready to install at an angle like that?

no the angle is not there, people who just buy the muffler need to put the angle in cuz, the muffler is too long to run straight back, so they need to angle it to come out the right side where the bumper is notched.

i personolly just ran the exhuast straight back on the right side, instead of bending the pipes more.

yep your wrong

about that because i have the cat back system and my exhaust is at an angle and it is installed right so now whats your reason for being at and angle huh? my first exhaust was just the muffler and that one was straight so i think you are wrong

man that sucks that it's bent like that, it doesn't look nearly as clean. Oh well, what are some other exhausts like the fireball out there that look like the fireball but run the muffler straight out?
