So what you are all saying is that mufflers are a big help? Or is it the ECM change that is the best bang for the buck, or Duck?

If you are commenting on the photo above your post, you will see that 2 turbos are fitted one on each exhaust pipe. This is no way is cost effective but what could be see as a spare no expense upgrade. I have not seen what the dyno graph looked like with this package installed but IF Brazel's did this (which I expect they did) it must be an awesome curve!

@ Driver- I was very impressed with that turbo setup, but at last no, I am just wondering if mufflers make any difference?

Tuned mufflers would make a difference if they were an added value component to a UP setup. Stand alone mfflers in my opinion would not be the best cost effective measure.

I returned my UP for a refund, and my mileage actually increased. Maybe the guy that worked there at the time failed to actually tune my ecm and still charged me $700....I don't know.

I got more performance increase with my muffler replacement. Next step is the Banks headers (if I keep this unit).
