Adjustable Exhaust

[Dpratt202]

Hi, I’m doing some research on exhausts for my 25 ST. Ideally I’d want one that’s adjustable like can be quiet when I want and louder at other times. I’ve been looking at the valvetronic exhaust but I have heard both good and bad. Ideally I’d wanna keep as much of the original exhaust as possible. I guess people are saying it’s too raspy but that can be fixed with an X pipe being installed. Anyone have any better insight or other recommendations that would be nice.

An X-pipe definetly wouldn’t fix rasp, that is the exact opposite of what they normally are known for. I dont think the Valvetronics are a great choice, mostly because it would be really hard to make them sound right. You would at least need the pair of mufflers, and a pair of Vibrant resonators for it to sound good, but its still pretty raspy.

That’s fair…. Are there really any alternatives from valvetronic that are adjustable?

Not that I know of.

You could always do cutouts but I think that would sound like crap imo.

I have 2 valvetronics and an x pipe on my st. I love it. Almost as quiet as stock when closed and when open it's not deafening but when you get on it it sounds great. I have the remote programmed to the garage door buttons so it's super easy to open and close. Happy to answer any questions.

You know it’s illegal to post that without a sound clip right? ;-)

Just got my mufflers from the black friday sale. How/where did you wire up to? How hard was the garage opener button to program?

I have the controller box on a little platform I made on the spare tire. I tapped in to power at the rear power plug by the light. I ran the air hose out the vent on the driver's side. Had it in a year plus. Zero issues. Programming the remote is super easy. There's a video where they put valvetronics on an at on you tube. He shows how to to it there. Basically hold down the garage opener then the remote.
