Yeah started looking around yesterday for them, custom shop that produces them, not a manufacturer. Probably why price is so high????

I wish we could get an American manufacturer to replicate just the mufflers even...

they sell those twin loop mufflers on ebay if you just search for em. Looks like they use 2" pipe after the y connection. Shouldnt be a big deal to replicate for 500 or less I'm thinking.

"With brass wind instruments, you change the note by selecting different length tubes for the air to travel. Longer tubes will give a deeper note while shorter tubes give a higher note. This type of muffler basically lengthens the tube, allowing sound waves to spread out and emit a deeper tone once it exits the system."

^ thanks for the info, I was always curious how different exhaust had their own unique sound characteristics.

Are these mufflers restricting?

Hmmm....more research. Exactly what I was thinking thought. Swap mufflers/tips leave the stock piping.

Time to work up something custom! Perhaps a cheap $250 ebay exhaust and weld on some twin loops? Man, best sounding 350 exhaust EVAR!

These are some crazy lookin exhausts! Sound great, just wonder about performance with all the extra twists and turns. Love the "engrish" though: http://www.suruga-speed.net/english/pfs.html

For the ones I've found so far, I keep running into the same problem.
No one makes a mirrored pair of them. They are are built for the same location.
With the offset of our mufflers/tips, I would have to flip one of these mufflers over, and have the extension pipe towards the ground and visible. Would look like **** IMO.
Not really sure how one could do it.
