It looks like it has yet another mount at the tip for flame throwers...

Stupid gimmick mufflers. I Google'd Power Effects mufflers and found their website.

They claim that the mufflers flow MORE than a piece of pipe, what a crock of SH!T

Look at this fool engine bay - it's yellow so you know he's a ricer and thus why he bought those POS's.

as for uncommon I had a Remus exhaust with a Remus muffler. It sounded really good and looked almost stock. I dunno if there is a retailer in the US for Remus, the one I had on my 95 had it on there when I got it. These are some sample sound clips on Euro cars. They are full remus but you can tell they don't make the cars sound real ricey or like wanna-be v8's. Here is the site. They are out of Austria so I am partial to them but I really loved the sound on my 95 SE. One muffler with headers, no rasp and never got pulled over for loudness even though it was loud as hell.

Edit: Just looked at the site, they have a sample clip of a Mondeo with and without a Remus exhaust, sounds pretty nice IMHO.

Only ricers use SBC 350 V8s...



They've only appeared in such rice rags as Corvette Fever, Kit Car and Super Chevy.

In Corvette Fever's June 98 issue they used a 1996 Corvette LT4 as a test vehicle for B&B Tri-Flow's system, Dynomax's system, Borla's system, Flowmaster's system and Power Effect's system. Dyno results:

Stock - 299 RWHP / 307 ft-lbs
B&B - 310/310
Dynomax - 304/310
Borla - 304/309
Flowmaster - 306/309
Power Effects - (Closed) 299/308 (Open) 311/313

DB Recordings at idle
Stock - 82
B&B - 96
Dynomax - 86
Borla - 92
Flowmaster - 92
Power Effects - (Closed) 90 (Open) 92

At 70 MPH in 6th gear
Stock - 94
B&B - 107
Dynomax - 96
Borla - 100
Flowmaster - 97
Power Effects - (Closed) 100 (Open) 103

Visit a Corvette forum and do a search and you will quickly find out how sought after PE is.

The tuneable version, which was shown, uses a diverter valve to adjust the exhaust flow through the muffler, how much goes straight through and how much goes around the center pipe and through the sound dampening material.

I have an unopened bottle of Crown in the cabinent if you want to wash that taste of foot out of your mouth.

I'll drink your booze sure, send it to me at: SKF USA, 46815 Port St Plymouth MI 48170

As for that I still don't by it. I've actually yet to see a Corvette exhaust system that out perform the Magnaflow cat back (with x-pipe) +24hp!
