I've recently fitted a 3" DPE catback to my VFII SS and am looking into getting my bimodal option back. This is my daily drive so I want to make it quiet when returning home late or leaving early.
I've been told that you can weld a valve into the rear muffler to retain bimodal but this doesn't make any sense to me as the muffler internals would need to be designed specifically for a valve? (The valved tip is straight through and the other is baffled)
Does anyone know if the DPE (Manta) 3" mufflers are designed in this way?
The other option is to throw the stock mufflers back on and keep the DPE midsection but then I'm putting 2.25" mufflers on a 3" midsection? (seems silly to add a restriction and not sure if the flanges would even line up)
Worth a shot or would that be a waste of time?
Also considered varex mufflers but they're quite expensive and I'm looking for a relatively cheap solution.
