Default Mina exhaust performance on 4.0l XK8?

Hi,

Does anyone have info on how the Mina exhaust(s) perform on a naturally aspirated 4.0 liter? I am far more concerned about my low- and mid-level torque than I am about high-end performance, and I don't want to spend money only to lose where I want to gain. Just read in the '06 and up forum that there can be a loss of low-end torque for a gain in high-end power....

Thanks!

Dave

Don't know specific improvement but, in general, any posts I have seen anywhere on other auto threads have been pretty poor bang-for-the-buck. This is especially true on "performance" cars that already have a pretty decent exhaust system. What folks seem to appreciate more is the meatier sound you get from some of the aftermarket systems, but there are just as many who complain about the extra drone and noise you end up with in the cabin.

Dave,

I cant answer your question but I am curious why your running an insurance company ad in your signature. Being you just joined and such I would think thats a no no. Maybe the moderators dont care but I find it curious. Maybe posting a picture of your car would be a better idea.

This is a Forum "Insertion", probably to help pay the forum upkeep. I use The SeaMonkey Browser and the adds don't appear. They do appear if I use Internet Explorer.
