In Reply to: Exhaust or 4 Barrel Carb? posted by Jerilyn on October 05, 2000 at 17:07:37:
it didn't effect my rpm range as well as TL's did, but it was a damn noticeable increase in torque for sure, it happened to be the first time I roasted the tires in that old car...
The exhaust really increased the rpms on mine, but the carb had a better butt'o'meter response.
: Hello everyone! Needless to say I have spent about $1500 bucks to fix up the mav mechanically. Now I have to decide weither to put a nice edelbrook 4 barrel carb or new exhaust. The exhaust that I have now is okay its basically straight pipes with metal (what looks like half cylinders) things around them. It sounds nice now and the performance shop called and said that a new exhaust which includes new 2 1/4 piping and and new flowmasters mufflers would cost me around $320. Now the carb would cost me $239 for the part and $50 to install. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys and gals!
