Mousse can muffler question
Hi
I was reading about this mousse can muffler thats done using the stock engine header (the front part of stock muffler) and a inner tube inside the mousse can as you can see in the following site. http://www.spadtothebone.com/SPAD/M...9/irvine_9.html
Have any of you tried this on a 46 engine such as 46fx or tt46? If so, what were the results? Did it improved engine´s performance? Better response and higher RPMs? What tube lenght you used and what size mousse can?
I really appreciate all inputs.
Thanks a lot

Mousse can muffler question
A mousse can muffler is just a lighter muffler that you can tune. Baisically you make it longer for torque or shorter for rpm. They are simple to make as I'm sure you've read. If you have more money than time buy one from the site listed in the post "Mousse Can Muthas". lean out the engine then make the pipe longer and shorter, you should find a sweet spot, too short and your engine will run hot and blow plugs. If you go too far, use a longer coupler. The headers are 25 bucks, the coupler a couple bucks, the mousse can a couple bucks.....not to mention time, just something to think about.

Sorry,
I should have read more carefully. The principle of being able to tune your muffler works, as long as you can change the size of the muffler. Not much help.....
