how much louder are we talking.?

i had my exhaust tested, 84db, nice and quiet, but i'm about to install a high flow. i always knew it would make things louder, would an increase of 7 psi make a huge difference in noise?

i am installing a gt30r sitting on a custom made high mount with 44mm turbosmart external wastegate and with a 3/or 3.5 " wide mouth dump

im sure the level of noise will increase, but would it be worth while upgrading my 3" jasma exhaust? or power difference from another exhaust wouldnt be noticable?

im pretty sure its the standard exhaust, but i have had the middle muffler removed.

The stock exhaust system is tiny, does it have twin pipes at the end? I would get a new one, go stainless steel 3" with 2 mufflers. Just be aware of the noise issue that will result with the bigger turbo, more flow = more noise.

bigger turbo= more flow= more noise? makes sense.

is there a possibility of upgrading the turbo and still having a quite car at low rev and an insane one at high rpm range? i too would enjoy to stay under the radar but would love to have the rb scream when i wanted it.

thanks in advance

bugger, haha i'll see what happens when i get my car back from the shop.

had a hiflow on it previously and was fairly quiet. Was actually considering then to get a new exhaust with less turns in the pipes.

but looking at what you have said i might wait and see what noise level i am on.

mine was 93-4, now is over a hundred again still with the peII. i want to put the old exhaust on again and see lol it used to be 100+ on the stock turbo.

i guess turbo choiuce is a bit different to you guys tho. right now car idles like open pipes with the peII

get one of those valves for the exhaust where you can turn it from inside the car to cut sound (and obviously flow/power) then open it right up for full sound and power.

Do you know the name of it? who makes them, HKS? anyone heard of such a valve?

you can get them from autobarn etc up here in syd quite easily. that "drift" brand make them and are probably the cheapest. also hks etc have similar offerings. they are called exhaust control valves (ECV) or exhaust valve controllers (EVC) by most manufacturer's., and are basically a throttle body for your exhaustdrift ones are around 170 bucks

I got my apexi one off nengun. They are quite good. Factor in a few hundred install. Had to remove my whole exhuast (one piece dump to cannon), cut in half, take a 150mm piece out. Weld on flanges to the exhuast and then flanges to the evc and then bolt back in.

I was hoping quiter on idle but make no difference. But if u tap accelerator with it shut it sounds like a camry. I have straight through 3" with just a cannon, and it gets very quiet when closed (rb20det with highflow)

what about that,,, im unsure of the brand might be xforce.

it comes with an electronic solenoid built in that diverts air, baffleing it making it quieter.

it was tested on ignition dvd. and sounded nice and quiet. then when u press the button, it unleashes hell

Does the TRUST PE2 exhaust have 2 mufflers?

as in one out the back and another between that and the cat?

if not, get an exhaust place to fit a 3 inch off centre muffler in the middle somewhere..

that'll shut the thing up.

EDIT - not I said muffler.. not a resonator.

they don't do shit.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
