Thanks for the info. I just ordered these gaskets !! I can see why the 90s would be great. Awesome quality in the lineup for the most part.

Just finished installing 2x Varex mufflers on my F. These are the cannon style which I had to modify and install them with the motor on the side. The body is 15in alone. I removed the tip and the flange. I don't know if their full varex exhaust uses a universal muffler they have in the lineup but it's pretty tight over there.
I love the feature of having closed exhaust when I leave my house late at night!!!

NO!! Too quiet for now. I have a magnaflow Tru-X muffler in the middle and I don't like it. I'm also running sikky headers. I just purchased a real x-pipe (non resonated) and will install this week. Right now it sounds like all the Joe-Z without headers.

Before the Varex I was running only the tru-X muffler in the center with no back mufflers, sounded so mean but was annoying for the neighbors....

Correct. I already had a custom exhaust so no need for the whole system.

Anyone know if you could wire it in to the "sport" button. It would be very oem for the valves to automatically open in sport mode.

It would be quite simple with a relay. Used the sport mode signal to trigger the relay and then just supply the relay with power and ground and an output to the motors. I actually really like that idea
