Default Dry exhaust with silent choice possible ?

simply food for thought...

some places like mine have more strict law enforcement on noise... but some dont !

is there a way ( and i mean there must be a way to do it) to have the choice between loud barking dry pipes and silent choice? Even if the project needs manual action to switch, like ball valves or something like that...

how would you plumb that?

I don’t know about silent choice but I kind of remember about a insert that would work with dry exhaust.

without cooling the exhaust....your exhaust bellows wont be happy, and you drive is going to get a heater installed, and bravos would really like a cooler installed.So no you are back to adding water to your exhaust......and that kind of defeats the purpose of the dry exhaust.

If not running thru the drives... lets say 2 sets under water exhaust like nortech used to have and 2 regular dry exhaust... both water jacked...

I would think you could do a reduced water exhaust with electronic valves that either dump the water overboard or keep it in the exhaust.
