MX-3.com

Hi everyone,

just want your opinion before i pay to get this installed. I just got this powertech PT1012 and when i was testfitting it i think it kinndda looks like too big for my mx3. The muffler has twin tip with 4.5" diameter. I know someone here posted that he got the same muffler but i think he got 3.5 tip. So i just need some input if this muffler will look stupid or not on MX3...

thanks in advance

personal preference....hold it up next to your car and see what it looks like.

i have a OBX on my 93 mx-3 with a 4.5" tip sounds a lot better and looks better than my previos exhaust with a 3.5" tip. didn't look supid on mx-3

well it wont do anything performance wise short of losing you low end power due to the backpressure drop. Its sure to be loud and rapsy on a 1.6L 4cyl. Consider urself a honda :p

hes askin about appearance so i have a dtm style dual 4" tips...looks banging...go ahead and do it

Moved to Appearance...

the size of the tip(s) has nothing to do with the sound.
