Because of this, I won't ever say anything bad about Vishnu or Buschur, as both companies have gone out of their way to take care of me and provided me with great customer service and courtesy! There is not anything more I can ask for to be a happy customer.

BTW, I mean no disrespect to Buschur. I don't have any parts from him, or anyone else for that matter, since my car is stock. Like I said, I am leaning toward his exhaust, though. Noize, if you would like to PM me about it, I would like to hear another Evo owner's feelings about the exhaust.

justchil,
I have the Buschur turboback system and I put the magnaflow muffler on it. It is every bit as quiet as the stock system. I don't how you can say it is so loud. The sound is slightly deeper (sounds much better) but definitely not louder.

David, Could you give us a mpeg file with 0-100mph video/sound file? I would like to hear your exhaust in action.
For example the RennArt did a great video job with inside/out low rpm, high rpm fly by etc...
Thank you

I have not seen the cross-section on the magnaflow and in fairness I should say I had them add a high flow catalytic converter since I want to stay legal. I had a stage two level modification done with the converter and the Magnaflow. The sound is great and the power is awesome. I am going back for the Stage three treatment in July - just waiting on the parts to come in.

Justchil,
We have a few versions of the exhaust. If you want the exhaust quieter then all we would need to do is install the Magnaflow muffler on the system. No difference in power, just adds 3 pounds to the system. Magnaflow option is only $20 more.
The Mackin Industries exhaust that is in this review says "Gram Light-Rays" on the tip. Looks like 3" but has a very short reducer right where it bolts to the converter.

Also TPR stands for "Tuner Performance Reports". This is the Jun/July 2004 issue. You can go to TPRMAG.com for information on where to find it.

Mackin Industries-Gram Light Exhaust
Gruppe-S Engineering-SUS Series exhaust
HKS USA-30th Anniversaray Hi-Power exhaust system
Magnaflow-Magnaflow Ti
Hope this helps you guys figure it out.
