This has been mentioned a few times, but also make sure you get 2 mufflers to reduce cabin drone instead of 1 muff 1 hotdog or whatever.

Interested to see what you get as i'm in the same boat but don't wanna spend 1k+ for a jap one.

mmmmm. where to start

ok.

Just Jap sell a bellmouth 3inch stainless steel turbo-to-cat pipe for $220 delivered roughly. get that.

get a high flow cat converter

for the rear, I believe a R33 4door cat-back system will fit BUT it will need around 30cm welded on in length.

you do NOT need 2 mufflers.

A nice 3" straight through muffler (i use a Kakimoto gtr-racing muffler) is fine, best just to get an exhaust shop to fit the front section, measure the back section and then custom bend the pipe section from cat converter to muffler, welding the muffler on for you.

easy.

i got a quote from everlast mufflers for a complete system, dump pipe, (bolted strait to the turbo) apparently theres some type that bolts onto the stock pipe :S. high flow cat. and the bak has 3 inch mandrell bent stainless steel with a cannon for $1600. he said he could do a 1200 one using cheaper metals and lower qaulity cat. and if i wanted i could mix and match... what do you guys think of this :S is it just me or is it fu*kn expensive?

well i have a split dump, highflow cat and 3.5" Greddy cat back system and i paid roughly the same price from memory......if your going for an aftermarket option then definatly worth spending the extra on a good quality metal pipes mate....its a good upgrade and highly recommend a good quality system...i have had it for a couple of years now and its given me no problems at all....apparently D&T and AAA exhausts are very good with prices and quality workmanship....AAA recently gave my mate a quote on using stainless steel from turbo back $1200

I've got an R33 system (twin cannons) about to be fitted to my Stag. I'll take note of any changes/problems and give you guys an accurate account of how it fits.

BTW I'll be throwing on a muffler between the cat and cannons to quieten her down. :D

Don't forget, there are different grades of stainless steel.

Some SS systems can still rust easily.

:D

Demand and supply.

Lots of people want exhaust work and are willing to pay what the shops ask.

go to exhuast technologies and speak to marky, he is good with prices and everyone knows his shop and product, highly rated and great quality, or D&T at salisbury and speak to gav, he is the person to talk to bout import exhuast systems.

    • On the hot side pipe work, or if you want to compensate for pressure loss from the IC, post intercooler on the cold side, pre-throttle
    • They're notoriously difficult if you traverse forums... the 102TB and FAST102 are so bad that most people actively don't buy it unless they REALLY want that extra 1hp. The idle stuff isn't really that hard. The cam is pretty manageable and while it acts like a larger cam the whole car actually drives smoother than before. I like to just tinker so if I can get 50rpm less variance or rule out situations where it does 'unexpected' things it's fun for me. HOWEVER If you just let a tuner give it a guess for a couple of hours and had no way/desire to test and tweak it yourself you'd spend a lot of money at the tuner or be pretty frustrated, that's for sure. But yeah. Drives great. (then I drive partner's Civic Type R and I think.. well, more tweaking to do) But for what it is (cam, TB, intake, manual etc) it does commute around really great once you figure out how the idle tables and GM's systems intend to work.
    • I usually source pressure on inlet manifold after throttle body
    • Where is the best location for boost pressure source when running mac 3port boost solenoid?  my new turbo does not have a fitting for that on the compressor housing.  how come Garrett make a turbo without that?  im confused 
    • From my memory, which isn't that great, we did have issues getting the large throttle body on my old LS1 to play nicely at idle, first it would stall, then it would only idle at 2k rpm, then it would hang at 2k rpm for a few seconds and then drop and stall, then, finally, the best we got was it would hang at 1.5k rpm for a few seconds then drop to around 800 rpm The tuner stated that large cable throttle bodies are a PITA, and if I wanted anything better than what we ended up with I would need a electronic throttle body and all of the aftermarket ECU stuff to run it
