Default AC Revolution Stainless Muffler

What do you guys think of this muffler? Damn, I'm still trying to figure out what to get for my car. If I should spend a small fortune on the Kore cat-back or buy something like AS Muffler I was looking at.

get the kore catback, worth every penny. and it is pretty cheap for a nice stainless system compared to some.

Whats inside the muffler on that Kore system? Is it material that will last a long time? Does the Kore system improve power any? Does it decrease fuel mileage? Does is make the farting noise? Does it take away low end torque? Sorry for all the questions, but I want to make sure I got all my questions answered before I go spend a pile of money on a pipe. Also, does anyone have any pics of this system on their accent?

You'll lose some low end torque because the pipe is bigger, which won't heat up the exhaust gases as quick at low rpm's which means they'll flow a little slower, but at higher rpms you'll gain it back since its less restrictive. If you want to keep your low end torque and still make some decent gains at higher rpms i'd recommend going with a 2" mandrel bent catback for the accent. The KORE one will give you better gains at higher rpm, but if you don't want to sacrafice low end torque then I wouldn't recommend getting it. As for the muffler, i'd say both mufflers are probably about the same, but the KORE catback won't give you a farting noise, however a muffler with no catback will give you a farting noise. My recommendation is get a 2" mandrel bent catback made with either some kind of turbo muffler or a 2.25" muffler.

Thanks, good advice. I might just do that with a dynomax super turbo muffler that that guy with the hydrogen car has. He likes it. (Hope I got the right guy).
