Trouble Maker Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 not big of a deal, i probably gained about 80rwhp when i opened mine. and all the ls1tech people agreed with me that thats possible :shrug: so i believe it...... I'll assume that was when you were turboed? That would make a huge differnece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98fiveseven1647545503 Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 with my set up and the stock muffler on the car yes i did have a 40 rwhp gain just by opening my cutout. True story. Was there and saw it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird69 Posted March 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 QTP http://www.quicktimeperformance.com/QTEC/ http://www.quicktimeperformance.com/store/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=25 when i got mine 2 years ago it was only $130 my cutout was also good for a solid gain of 40rwhp on my last trip to the dyno Thanks for the info, I doubt I'll be seeing a 40 rwhp gain from just a cutout, new pipes and headers, but any gain's better than no gain right?

Bird69 Posted March 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 As of right now, the passenger side muffler isn't robbing anything but people's hearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll acknowledge the dyno sheets when they are posted, however I want to see the response on LS1Tech. That's what I want posted... :nod: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest powers Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 +1, linn your car sounds real nice with the cut out open. I think it sounds like complete ass with the cutout open. Like a really leaky header. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wease Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 I think it sounds like complete ass with the cutout open. Like a really leaky header. I agree. The sound's not for everyone.

98fiveseven1647545503 Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 its a toss up. I like the sound but it gets annoying. Atleast Linn can turn his off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMeanGreen Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 Hell ya. I had duals with magnaflows.. Duals on LS1's >* Agreed. But with the clerance issues, I think I'm gonna go with a custom 4" Y-pipe with Bullet at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble Maker Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 QTP is lame. Cleveland winters ate 2 of them. DMH all the way. I’ve heard about people having reliability issues with the QTP in the DSM loops quite a bit. I guess the motors like to die. Last time I talked to Linn about it he had no issues with his after quite a bit of use. I’d imagine he never closes it though, what would the point be? That DMH looks like a nice piece. No telling for sure how durable the motor is from the way it looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tulo Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 DMH makes a good product. The only time I've had one fail is when I dropped it, and after that they sent me a brand new one for free. I think the warranty on it is for four years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
