Now im sure this is on the forum some where but using the search function only gave me about 80 pages of stuff...

Was kind of curious, How much would extractors + exhaust tip Individual + install cost me? after hearing ghold's car the other day i want extractors hah.

Looks like your hunt for stepper motor leads you to this instead.

rpw extractor - $500
hurricane extractor - $600+

Some say they both are the same thing.

Install extractor - $150-250

---------

Exhaust tip. Just the tip????? $50 for a nice tip.
Install, just weld it on the back. Say, $30?

Has anyone actually compared the two (RPW & Hurricane)?

Yea i remember someone compared them and say they're exactly same thing.

And, some say hurricane's is re-branded from rpw's.

^^ Somewhere in the exhaust thread.

Extractors have absolutely nothing to do with what noise the car makes.

Further more, have you done the cat back yet?

Yeah they do they make a nice growl on some cars!

Helps to fit a double braided flex pipe too if you fit RPW extractors they get them made from a place in sydney who attaches a single braided one to them. Sometimes a bit hit and miss if you need a double braided one or not. Gets rid of the loud buzzzing noise.

Go the hurricane,

Havn't heard the best things about RPW ones.

Yeah I spent many hours with a straight grinder cleaning up the RPWs. However that was 8 years ago... processes may have improved since then.

Ben, i beg to differ

The moment the guy started up my car after installing the hurricanes, there was a difference.
Extractors do change the sound of the exhaust, though I don't really like the rasp when i hit 4500rpm

it wasn't there when i didn't have hurricanes.

Might be a different story if the muffler was quiet. Mine is loud enough to manifest subtle changes in the sound...

Cameron, the extractors range from 600~900 and the professional installation could be from 250~350.

All new exhaust components add a raspy sound until the soot builds up on the inside of the piping.

^ True that, and i know that sound well, but i still know the difference in grunt from before the hurricanes and now. Its like the car draws grunt from the earth, not just from the tip kinda thing

All i can say is, the car really did sound heavier since the hurricanes.

A back muffler changes sound, The rest won't change sound much at all. It may go a little bit deeper but that's it.

Gholdwayne · Post by **Gholdwayne** » Thu Apr 07, 2011 7:47 pm

it got deeper for sure

Does it have any more performamce or just heavier sound ?

Definitely more performance. Better air flow.

^ Yehp!

If you've been driving for a while with say, only a cat and cat back, then put extractors in, you will know that you just got better performance and a deeper exhaust tone..

@storm hawk, your custom downpipe pretty much has a similar effect
