MRT Muffler
 

I'll be getting it any day now, any advice on changing it??? is just unhook the old one and clip this one on??? Is there a write up anywhere..

RE: MRT Muffler
 

Yes, basically it's an unbolt and put in the MRT. One thing that does seem to come up is not enough clearance between the MRT tip and bumper. The best way to fix this is to loosen up the mid-pipe and try rotating the pipe. Mine was very close to the bumper, we rotated the mid pipe and now I have plenty of clearance...

if that would be a problem what about sending the opening in the bumper a bit?????

RE: MRT Muffler
 

nope.. you definitley don't want to do anything to the bumper! If you run into a fitment issue, I would definitley try the mid-pipe trick... worst case some guys have bent the hangers a bit... or possible have it installed by a reputalble muffler shop...

I got the MRT last week and I'm not very happy with it. Sounds like an inport and most os all the resonance inside the car is REAL annoying

RE: MRT Muffler
 

Almost all the add-ons sound better after 500-1000 miles. My Ford Racing muffler had a bit of rice sound to it at first (the higher frequency pops) and now it has calmed quite a bit and has a greater percentage of low frequency rumble.

REALLY?? Is that cause of the sut buid up inside? I am more annoid at the inside noise than the ricey sound

RE: MRT Muffler
 

It does take the MRT a bit to "break in"... mine changed tone multiple times over the coures of a couple thousand miles... It will get better...

As far as the resonance inside... You might want to give MRT a call and ask them about some of the resonators they've been working on... Should eliminate the resonance while keeping the performance... I heard one while I was there on Thursday.... worked quite well..

What about you other guys with th MRT ?? You had problems not fitting it ??

RE: MRT Muffler
 

well you are gonna want to spray wd-40 on all the bolts and let them sit for a while before trying to remove the stock exhaust. I torqued them as much as i could without doing it and they didnt budge at all. I didnt have a bumper clearance problem at all once i got mine on though.
