Re: criticize this!

i think theres a few variables you would need to look at before you could stick it in a category. What type of car is it? And what else have you modded?

Why would you need a pipe that big, that far back? Exhaust cools and becomes less dense as it moves back, needing less pipe.

I'd say it's rice, unless you have a monster v12 or something that needs a pipe that big.

But I guess that's passable as long as you don't do anything that will actually hurt the performance of anything.

I think it's not a big pipe so much as it's a resonator.

Funny thing is: resonators don't really add any performance, they just make a bigger sound so you THINK you've paid all that money for better performance.

Is that critical enough? Or would you like to argue the merits of a V8 vs a 4 cylinder sewing machine motor?

Re: criticize this!

how are we supposed to say if its rice if all you show is a muffler tip. its a huge pipe but if its on a little 4 banger its still rice. unless thats a v8 or up ill call it rice until you can show it isnt.
