you'd be better off just putting a silencer in the rear, like what most systems come with. no cutting, and much cheaper.

thats what i was thinking but for some reason the blitz nur spec dosnt come with one...at least the one im buying....

do i have to call blitz "japan"

and if i do get a silencer.....how much would it restrict my power?

hrmmmm.....maybe im better off getting a different cat back.....any suggestions?

i know of the HKS Silent HiPower one.....but i like a deep sounding note to my exhausts....how silent is the hks one?

I had the same exhuast, it still failed EPA with the silencer in by 2db... i had to install another resinator into the system either that or install a mid muffler.

By installing the silencer your car will aslo stop making power at a certain rwkw like mine did..

man thats shiet........do u still have the thing isntalled? what is the legal amount of db we can have...and how much is the blitz nur spec without restrictions?

Edited by anDru

noise and restriction are proportionate. I don't care what anyone says about their quiet system that doesn't cause a restriction.

Basically, it will be more restrictive if you make it quieter. The question is HOW MUCH that restriction affects your GIVEN POWER OUTPUT.

Personally, I run a straight 3" pipe. Most possible power, minimum possible restriction.

BTW, I have an ecv in my car. It's very restrictive. The car feels like it accelerates about half as fast. you can watch the revs climb if you stamp it, and it is really choking. Whereas, in first, if I normally floor it, the rev needle just smacks straight up to the red.

Regarding the rear plug in silencer (buttplug), i find mine to be quite restrictive like the ecv.

Regarding the centre muffler - refer to my first point regarding noise and restriction.

btw, ecv is not 200

firstly, it's 300$. you need the 81mm version if you have a 3" exhaust.

Then you need an exhaust shop to cut off one of your flanges, then weld in the ecv.

It's u to you whether you want to quieten it down. personally, i want it as loud as possible.

Why do you want the Blitz?

The Trust Power Extreme II is very quiet but still gives off an awesome growl when you give it to it. I believe it is also 88dB alone (stock dump + front pipe) as well, so all legal. (Info from Trust site)

Dont waste your time with the apexi evc i hav it and had nothing but problems with it so its now wired fully open.. spend the extra cash and get yourself a legal exhaust system.. best iv seen are CES exhaust systems in brisbane.. they will hav a system in stock to suit your car and guarentee legal db's and 20+kw gain...

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
