Definitive Exhaust Thread - Gen 2

[Monotonous ONE]

faggot


post up vid clips and stop being such a cunt

[wolly6973]

@dononbugme - Did you have the exhaust installed before putting the dp on?
If so, how much did the dp affect noise levels?

[DONOTBUGME]

I had the dp on first.

[Monotonous ONE]

sounds awesome

perfectly quiet..i love it


in for wot vids

[DONOTBUGME]

this is from a cold start a little louder than stock

[dizzydtrain]

That sounds really nice, gotta hear some drive by videos.

[myslow1]

That sounds hot! Guess I gotta get some internals so copy you. My magnaflow sounds no where near as good as yous. Thanks for the vid.

Sorry no dyno clips, all you can hear is sssoto's phone distorting and his phone kept freezing up.

[Soto]

doode, theres like 2 of them you can post

shitty but whatever

other vid is better anyways

[Teethkikr]

I have done a custom Test Pipe and a resonator delete and LOVE the sound.. Will try to get a video up soon..

Love the sound. DP :drool:

[bertrand_CX_7]

Hi guys sorry for the dump question.

but how is the noise increase in the cabin with just a down pipe (Cobb or UR). I've heard installing a DP will help increase low end torque but I was asking my self if we do really need more torque with this front wheeler?

I'm looking for DP because I can run a stage2 map with the AP and I heard the gain in significant with the DP vs. the TP or the CBE.

For now I'll keep in mind the UR CBE. I just need a DP combo solution that still makes driving my car fun

Thanks for your inputs!

[DONOTBUGME]

I dont notice any noise or vibration increase in the cabin with the dp and cbe at normal driving, at wot yes it is louder. My drone is actually less than it was with the stock cbe.

[adlpb]

Here's a quick question:

I have a UR TP at home and a UR DP on the way. My KMD internals should be here soon as well. I'd like to run the Stage 2 maps, but the Cobb specs sheet say that all stage 2 maps require a CBE. Can I run a stage 2 map with just the DP (catted) +TP? Or do I need to purchase one of these before? I was very interested in the Magnaflow until I saw the post above with the restrictive 2 1/4 pipe, which is now pushing me towards CS.

Thanks

[wolly6973]

You can run it and see if your fp keeps up. I am betting that it won't, but it may since it is summer and you may have a freak fp.
That's the beauty of the AP. Just flash a map, see how your car likes it, and if it doesn't, change maps!

[adlpb]

Well I wouldn't run the map without my KMD internals installed, so would the FP still be an issue?

[wolly6973]

It is possible. That is why you have the AP though, so you will know for sure.

[unokevin1]

The CNT catted DP bolts directly to the stock exhaust correct?

[IshiKage]

no. you need an adapter flange from what i remeber

[crtguns]

If I understand correctly, removing the resonator will increase sound volume? I'm in CA- does the resonator do something for smog shit?

I freind of mine that races trucks has a valve installed upstream if the muffler- when open, it sounds like a V6 chainsaw. Can the MS3 gen 1 get some tweaking like this?

I just wanna hear my car a little more. And I dont want to spend 5-600 bucks for a little more sound.

The resonator has nothing to do with emissions, the cats do however. If you want to open up the exhaust without spending too much then get the resonator removed and get yourself a test pipe.

There are a few videos on here of the resonator delte+ test pipe combo and it sounds great. You also really have to hear it in person to appreciate it. The test pipe will delete the secondary cat that is not monitored by the ECU so you won't throw a CEL either and emissions will be fine as well.

So, not that bad. total cost for me was 400+100 (cost of not selling testpipe)+60= 560. This pictures is of the maganflow pipe that connects to the dp where the restriction is, next to it is my corksport test pipe. So the guy cut off the flared part of the testpipe and cut off the top flange. He welded them together and we used the cs flange and this was created. Here is it hooked up to the dp. From the side Underneath Back So at idle and cruising it is no louder than stock (with a dp) At wot it it has a much louder and deeper growl. This is everything I wanted so I am very pleased. As for the video...maybe tomorrow, i tired from work and need to do data logs.

I have the same problem. 3" UR catted testpipe to the magnaflow. I'm cutting out the 2.5 in section and using a Vibrant V-band. I may even V-band all the slip fit connections if they ever leak, I hate slip fit exhausts.

[dizzydtrain]

Anyone have any news on the SURE cbe? Can't wait to hear/see it,

Sounds like stock.......butt dyno says there is some gain.....

[Silver Ecstasy]

Wow very nice!! When did they make one for the 2nd gen?

[bro2]

Anybody have any other vidz of the Magnaflow w/ TP installed???

[dgus429]

Here are a couple vids of the Ultimate Racing axleback with the res delete. Sorry for the shitty quality, took em from my phone. The tone is the same as the catback, just the overall volume is a bit quieter. Its probably a little louder with the res delete. Interior sound is about same as stock with little to no drone, stock might actually have more drone. Enjoy!

Love the UR exhaust! but before that forge bpv and downpipe!

[JS + MS3]

UR = Win.

yeah I got a magnaflow cbe with SU tp.......I've been meaning to post a vid. I'll do it this weekend.
