Jamesy Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Far too loud IMO for a daily driver wash your mouth out.....no such thing as too loud - even that 5" pipe you had off JP last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 what are import costs like on a exhaust from the states does anyone know or have any experience? Add 20% and you wont be far out, BL are doing them for $800 at the min. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest j2x Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Very nice, did you make that yourself? is it all one part? a friend has a workshop. two parts, 5" downpipe and reducer to 4.5", then vband to the rest. downpipe section fresh out of the wrapping from thermal coating Nice what is the clearance like around the rear subframe ? also thats a long backbox ! we notched the subframe a bit. the exhaust goes close, there is maybe 5mm or so, but its held quite firmly in the vertical axis so it doesnt touch anywhere. i wanted the size but tucked up as high as possible, thats the advantage of custom, you can do what you want. i got him to make the last can as long as possible in order to muffle as much as possible. ha. its still ridiculously loud. the noise carrying capacity rises with the cross sectional area, so that half inch makes an approx 20% difference in noise, which is quite noticable comparing it to an otherwise identical 4" setup. with a bit of assistance i made a custom baffle which is almost the full length of that last can which i keep in the back seat wrapped in a towel for mornings and whenever it has to be quieter. it sucks driving it like that though cos you feel like youre hamstrung. jamie knows the feeling im sure. if i had to do it again i would do 5" into twin 3.5" nestled either side of the driveshaft, and out either side of the diff with custom cutouts in the bumper, get the standard one plastic welded/filled in. more csa overall and less noise. kind of like sw's setup but retaining the standard bumper height. with a custom fuel tank to accommodate the pipes, and the pipes in titanium to offset the weight. all adds up to a lot of effort but would be worth it i think. plus it would make it easier to approach proper deep section rear ground effects. Very nice Hope that's not a rubber fuel line running over the hot exhaust though. it is, but the braid insulates fairly well plus its further away than it looks. theres a decent air gap and its also cooled by the fuel flowing within. its spent its fair share of time on the hoist, where its easy to inspect everything. although speaking of doing it over i would probably do a mechanical fuel pump instead which would entail different routing. and xrp kevlar crimped hose instead of stainless braid as its about half the weight, and theres a fair bit of it.

fastcar Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Just wondering why you have the 2nd smaller pipe on the 5inch downpipe. Is it to aid exhaust flow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
