Muffler delete for ecoboost

[EcoboostJim]

Any body do a muffler delete with resonated or muffled tips? Keeping stock catback pipe and stock resonator. I know the stock mufflers are restrictive. If you have show us some sound clips and opinions . Thanks EBJ

I probably will be come monday. I'll let you know how it sounds. Pretty sure in the exhaust thread that is stickied up top, the bottom link in the first post is a muffler delete with muffled tips.

What diameter and material of the pipes you are replacing with.

 

[Impulsed7]

probably stock for now, until I go 3" single with resonator.

Im getting mine cut off and new pipe with sts stainless steel 4 inch tips welded on this Monday. I can post a few vids.

Here is a nice little example I came across of resonator and muffler delete. I am actually quite pleased with the outcome.

Not sure if this would effect backpressure the way a new DP seems to do and cause oil seepage through the bearings though. More tests either need to be done. How hard is it to either just replace the turbo itself (has anyone even done that yet?) or put a restriction valve?

yup that's me ^^, should be fine, removing the cat is where you really effect backpressure, I haven't had any issues or smoking aside from start up smoke.
the diameter of the pipes is all over, from turbo-cat = 2.75", cat-resonator box = 2.5", resonator-mufflers pipes both 2.25"

As promised, I have one video right now of what the ecoboost mustang sounds like with the mufflers removed. I had 4" inch SS turbo Stainless Steel Tips weld on to 16 inches of 2.5 inch pipe, and a two hangers installed, it cost me $110.00 for the shop to weld everything and I spent 50.00 on the tips (gotta love craigslist).

More videos to come ( I had my son revving the engine)

*The volume is better when wearing headphones*

Sounds good

It reminds me on a SRT4. Sounds good to me!

Yeah, I have not wanted to pull the trigger on a full exhaust setup as I have not heard one I am in love and didn't want to waste over a grand. I am going to order the res delete pipe soon. I will post a few more videos once my wife gets home.

On a side note, the guy who installed my tips told me a guy just brought his ecoboost in to get a full system installed, came back a few days later because he was not happy with the sound and had resonators put in, the guy said it sounded good after that (to each their own). I think its going to be a trial by error until we all find something we like.

I think you nailed it right there. Sound is like women...it's all an "eye in the beholder" kind of deal except with ears, lol.

Sounds amazing, but how's the performance and do you have any droning issues at any rpm?

I just youtubed dozens of other similar 4cyl turbo exhausts with only mufflers deleted and I think this is the perfect solution for everyone looking for the perfect sounding exhaust. They are all much DEEPer and LOUDer than any axle-back you can find. My only concern is any technical con's that might arise from this as I don't know how a loss of a muffler will affect a turbo engine
