Talking jjj got a redback exhaust system.

: Hi Guys,

Got a Redback 2.5inch mandrel bent sports exhaust fitted to the EL monty on saturday. It came with a straight through muffler and resonator and sounds nice and is not too loud. Totally different sound to my last falcon. Alot more revy and crisp sound compared with a rough, bad idle sound the the EA falcon 3.9mpi had with a lukey exhaust system.

Car has picked up alot of down low torque and power right through the rev range. Very happy.............And when you start the car it just sounds awesome. Trip computer is also showing improved fuel economy on the highway and around town.

Cheers Luke.

money well spent, wait a few weeks when the exhaust has been "run in" and it will sound even better

yeap the best investment any falcon owner can do IMO.

I got a straight through with 1 muffler and Im starting to wish that I got another put in. Maybe down the track I might put one in; probably not though....lol

It was $320 all up fitted.(took the exhaust fitter about 30 minutes to fit)

$300 for Redback 2.5in Mandrel Bent cat back exhaust system.(2 mufflers)

$20 for 3inch polished stainless steel tip.

Ring around mate, this was the best price i could find in my local area, most places quoted me $400 including a tip.



Cheers Luke.
