I'll flick him an email, see if he has any pics of it. Not sure how he likes it as yet, as he was sorting out a few small issues with the car.

well i got the single tip oval varex, fits great, plenty of clearence. Nice and quiet while cruising 2-4K, but has a nice bark from 4500+, no annoying resonance either. Havent connected the wiring up yet so cant comment on the noice levels with the valve closed but at the moment i can hear just as much if not more noise from the tires and drivetrain than the exhaust. It did exactly what i wanted, very happy with it.

Wow, with 430hp atw and being nice and quiet at 2-4000rpm fully open the oval units must be way better at keeping things quiet than the cannons. Is there any way you can upload a video to youtube or anything?
Here's mine with the cannon Varex fully open indoors and outdoors :w00t: http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=ucKizojWcRs . I have a mild steel 3" dumpipe off the back of the garrett turbo up to the 3" Catco ceramic cat. From there back its 3" Stainless.
Arnt they a strait through in the centre of the muffler with a hole in the side of the pipe before and one after the flap to make the flow go through the baffeling when closed. Not a mesh like a normal cannon ect its a solid strait through pipe execpt the two holes.
So open they are basicly a strait through when the valve is open.
Gasses only go through the baffeling when the valve is closed.
So how would the oval be quieter than the cannon when open?

Jacob just did it, read couple posts upnk said:
So to clarify, the oval ones are differnt in the guts compared to the cannons? I though they just had a bigger baffled area.
The two cannon ones ive looked at, in the middle have a solid pipe with one hole before the valve and one after, flow then is forced through the baffling, normally it would act like a strait pipe as its the least restrictive. So with the valve open i'd think the bigger oval shape wouldnt make a differnce as its flowing strait out and hasnt got the mesh lining like a normal strait through cannon or oval muffler. The flow isnt exposed to the baffling like it would be in a normal cannon.
For example heres 2 pics of up a cannon style one.

Okay so i've had a Varex on a 3" exhaust on my EVO for the past week and all I can say is these mufflers are farken AWESOME. I drive with it closed mostly- and it's actually made my car a treat to cruise in. Quieter than stock!!!!
When open (on the race track etc) it sounds awesome. No drone, no rasp- just pure 4G63 goodness. Highly recommended!

Come on mate!!!! Oval of course!! :lol::lol:
Single tip. Looks sweet- the only thing I dont like about it, is that it has 'VAREX' on the top of the tip- wouldnt mind getting TRIKFAB to tack on one of this stainless badges over it :thumbsup:

I think im going to put a different tip on mine the 4.5inch or whatever it is looks way too big.
