 Here's mine. Redback 2.5" catback, with a turbo muffler and no res...Wish it was louder but oh well. Has a nice sweetspot at around 3000rpm. If oil spits out the exhaust, does it mean the car is running rich? Cos mine does that. Would this also contribute to bad fuel economy, as i'm currently getting around 20L/100kms!!!  :

if it blows plack smoke your car is running rich 20l/ 100km that is bad man your car is bad at fuel economy well you tend to burn more fuel with a bigger exhaust

Not so, a stock motor with a 2.5 inch zorst, with or without extractors will generally improve its economy considerably, assuming of course the engine is healthy in the first place. |

yea my timing is advanced to keep up with under the hod.. so its rich atm.. its as far as i can go without a chip...
my trip com shows about 14.5 L/100k ... so its not too bad.. i might change the oxy-sensor and back the timing off a tad...i think it pings at about 140kph @ 4500 rpm... at willowbank of course jasinex

Ive got a Supercat stainless muffler with a Redback straight through rear section. Sounds great although not as loud as i was expecting down low in the rev range but from 2500rpm onwards ts sounds tough. My fuel economy also slightly improved after getting the 2.5" catback system fitted.
