Big buffalo (split from 10 best)

I will get to all 10, but I have only had my Big Buffalo one week. #1 is a nice flowing exhaust. I will try to post a photo. Ed Hansen Muffler in San Diego installed a clean set up to unchoke the pinch points and added a Flowmaster. I immetialy noticed an improvement in performance. If I can't figure out how to past a photo, then please go to my gallery (BillPa1).

Yea, need to get camping. Only 600 on the clock. Solar panals and rack from Alumanes next week. I live in La Mesa so it is a short drive to the Alumanes shop. The van runs great with the modified exhaust. I will be driving to Whidbey Island, WA starting on February 11th, 2012.

And I just added JBA Headers from JBA Performance Center in San Diego. Check out the before and after manifolds.

Looks awesome. Do you mind me asking what those ran, installed? Have you noticed a difference in power and how the engine runs? Quieter/louder?

That will help the engine breathe for sure. Would love to hear a sound clip!

Re: Big buffalo (split from 10 best)

Thanks. The sound did not change that much, remember I had Ed Hansen Muffler do a two 2 one "Y" and a Magnaflow muffler. What did change was for the same throttle position I got about 8-10 more MPH and about 1.8 more MPG. I am not kidding!

PS-The hearders installed was $1,650
