Default exhaust question

does anyone have any experience with the summit turbo mufflers? supposed to be really free flowing and sound great anyone know if this claim is true? also they are supposed to produce 21 extra hp at 5600 rpms is this true? or would a pair of thrush glasspacks be better? thanks for any help you guys can give me.

If turbo mufflers are anything like glasspacks, don't go near em. HORRIBLE sound and performance.

In Pasadena, MD the exhaust doesn't matter. Just owning a fox is redneck...and proud of it

I recently did exhaust and found out that the mufflers I had change out were Turbo mufflers. Sounded like a truck, had lots of drone, and did not flow worth a ****.
