screamer and straight 4" out the side infront of p.s back wheel. You cant think at idle and its clearly one of the loudest cars at the track. Its so loud when you go past the commentary tower at qr, you can hear the cars exhaust as feedback through the speakers when they talk. The flames are another story ;)

X force stainless 3" split dump pipe bolted onto a JIC magic 3" engine pipe

bolted onto an x-force stainless cat bolted onto a

HKS silent hi-power 3" exhaust.

The system is actually quiter than my stock exhaust at certain rpms, but absolutely growls when I open up the throttle. No drone at all which is a big bonus to me.

custom 3 inch dump pipe with screamer to magnaflow 650cfm cat, to 3.25 inch 5zigen Border exhaust. not bad for an exhaust made in 1998, its quiet as per normal then when opened up sounds very nice.

has anyone bothered to do the calculations on what a 2inch, 3inch, 4 inch system will actually flow?

you'll find that even a mandrel bent 2.5 inch system has enough capacity to flow like 400hp.

I don't remember the calculations exactly.. I think Sydney Kid had posted them at one point.

3 inch system

single dump pipe

exhaust is:

turbo to cat (unknown brand) mild steel

magnaflow high flow cat

then magnaflow stainless steel all the way back

dual tip at the end, looks steathly apart from the fact it's shiny :blink:

larger resonator (high tech mufflers) dropped noise from 92db down to 85db, didn't really notice any power decrease

i dont think anyone really cares how much they flow outright, its a matter of what works better :domokun:

a 2.5" pipe may flow enough for you to make 400hp, but if switch to 3" your sure to make a decent gain.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
