I was browsing over Muscle Motors website and cam across this system,I was going to get the Borla Stainless system a long time ago but someone here averted me from it because of the horrible design like 3 piece intermediate pipe and that it doesn fully reach the cat,and other issues basically saying the system isnt worth $500+.So I found a System made by Random Tech its the first time Ive seen it.It lists for $575.3inch intermediate pipe 3 inch duels.Im pretty sure the intermediate pipe is one piece.Anyone have this system or can give me feedback on it?Thanks

 

Well u have to ask yourself this question. Do i want to spend $550.00 on a catback exhaust system that will only give me 25 hp. Sure every little bit helps, but i suggest u go with the flowmaster design(american thunder) which includes 3 inch mandrel bend pipes 40 series muffler and a single 3 inch outlet. If u think the flowmaster is restrictive get an exhaust cutout. In total u should have spend just about $300.00 for everything that i have just mentioned and an extra 200 for something more important. Im sure a bunch of others would agree with me.

Yes but stainless steel doesnt rust,thats why I have SLP headers and want a stainless cat back also.IMHO the single exhaust pipe looks like crap.My friend has a flowmaster kit and it sounds real "tinny".Doesnt sound good at all.Im running over 500hp easy so which exhaust I go with does matter a lot.Everything rusts up hear in New England.Ive had Edelbrock headers coated and they only lasted 2 years before they started bubling.Ill spend the big bucks on the cat back but I only want to spend it once.My choices are now:MAC,Mufflex,and Random Tech.

Ive heard many stories that intermediate pipe size over 3 inches doesnt matter because of the muffler is the same duel 3 inch outlets.Im still not finalized on one peticular catback so feed back on which one everyone owns,especially modified cars is a big +.Thanks for the reply

 

The american thunder series is a 30 series muffler.

I meant the force II, which is the single 3in/out, I have it, it's not to bad

I am interested in this. I may have the borla and my have been the one who warned you about the multi piece intermediate pipe. I can't find anyone who make a full cat back with duals that is stainless. maybe I just need to email random tech. I like flowmaters but they don't last forever. had them on my pickup and being it the mud alot they were gone fast.

 

just got an email back. the kit is supposed to be complete all the way to the cat. I am thinking about getting one to replace the borla.

 

The american thunder from flowmaster uses a 40 series muffler while the Force II uses an 80 series muffler. I have been told countless times by flowmaster.

I have the Mufflex and love it. Granted, it is not stainless, but is aluminized. My suggestion is to use a coating like High Temp POR-15. This stuff is supposed to be indestructible. Won't protect the inside though. The sound is extremely powerful.

well got back with them and they swear it is a complete kit sent me a pic of the aluminized version on a thirdgen and said the only difference was the material. I had dual 3" stait exit pipes not turned down at all. with a complete intermediate pipe. looks like the the best stainless option for thirdgens.
