Supertrapp a bad idea?
I think I made a big mistake! I tried installing a supertrapp in place of the stock muffler on my MY '00. I have a short air intake with a K&N. I tried the muffler because I had one laying around, and I think it sucks. I lost entirely too much backpressure or something because my butt-dyno says it's much slower. Anyone had any luck with home-made low-budget exhausts?

There are a whole lot of Supertrapp mufflers, and the results on an RS would depend on the dimensions of the model you're using and the number of diffuser discs.

Jeff,
I have had excelent results with my "low budg" exhaust system. First a 200$ borla boomer (stainless w/twin 3" DTM tips) and another 200 bones for a guy to bend me a pipe outta 2 1/4" aluminizied steel and in stall it. Looks, fits, SOUNDS great. AaRoN |

what Colin said.
there are WAY different supertrapp setups depending on engine size. You probably put one on that was not very compatible with the RS motor. Im sure they do make an application that works, I gave up on em, as they stopped answering my questions........ but I do have their catalog..... Ryan |
