Exhaust Systems

[BigDirtyJase]

Hey guys,

Just wondering what exhaust system do you have in your Stagea. I'm looking to upgrade my stagea after I upgrade my Turbo....

I was looking at the HKS Hi-Power 409 cat-back exhaust system and a Xforce cat....front pipe will be a 3 inch one but dunno what yet (JJR, buy one from ebay, or some other name brand)

Would that a good setup in your opinion

Is they anything else you guys would recommend

custom 3" catback with mild mid muffler and stainless magnaflow oval rear... best daily driver exhaust possible... which will be sold from my car when i sell my car, as the sooner i go back to a standard exhaust the sooner i stop getting nasty looks from neighbours in my apartment block lol.

i'm third floor, and i can hear it start/idle very faintly when my mrs starts it...

Im running the hks 409 non silent version with a blitz front pipe and decat.

Very deep sound and noticeable power gain.

Very happy with it!

Just Jap Racing 3" bellmouth stainless steel turbo-to-cat dump pipe

Random Technology 3" stainless steel hiflow 620cfm metal cat converter

3" cat-back straight thru pipe to Kakimoto GTR Racing 3" straight thru muffler

sounds fkn awesome

isnt loud, isnt toney, isnt bassey, isnt deafening, doesnt have noticeble drawl thru the cabin, no headaches, no earaches

sounds H O R N

as the boost rises the power rises, the gasses come out unrestricted but yet muffled enough to tell its a tough RB25det in a shagn wagn

full s/s ces 3.5" system with ceramic coated split front/dump hi-flow cat with magnaflow oval muff 86.8db, i have mentioned before but will mention again it sounds like ripping silk

[chef_stagea]

can any of you guys post up a pic of your exhaust sitting on ur wagz? im semi keen... but not after a cannon or ne thing... just a nice plush pretty much not even noticable... no noise or wank factor needed.

the pic attaches is what im kinda after... maybe not even that out there. cheers

[jonny8ball]

once I get mine back from the tuners I'll post a pic also.

If your after a less in your face exhaust note and you like the 409 they do a HKS 409 silent hi power exhaust.

you can check my gallery to view business end of my system, haven't got any under shots, should take some and stick in my gallery, the welding is a piece of art.

Have just fitted a JJ 3" bellmouth dump and X Force hi flow cat. Cat back is as imported. 3" witha small mid mount and

Fuji Cannon.

Have been keeping check on fuel consumption and am using 2-3 litres less per 100. Breathes much better and power is noticeably better and smoother, and comes on quicker. I also use an electric controlled two stage boost controller, which is great for mountain roads.

[Tangles]

mine looks stock too, very mild look/sound

but completely unrestricted now !!! 3" all way straight thru dump/cat/muffler

I have a fujitsubo exhaust which as a mid and rear muffler (same as Alexcim's) and am very happy with it... The more power I made the louder it got but just cruising around town it wouldnt be much louder than stock but has a nice note when you open her up! sitting at a set of traffic lights you wouldnt even know it was turned on.

Does not look aftermarket at all.

So far it has pulled an easy 265rwkw so it makes the power as well..

hmm liking the sounds of these exhuast .... pics would be great ... and price you go them done ... you just basic details cheers

Just got the Just Jap 3" bellmouth front+dump installed yesterday on an already 3' HKS Super Drager catback.

It spools up slightly louder, and it did exactly what I thought it would do - at about 2.5k its just that little bit smoother/quicker, and it just seems the car can breathe easier. For 200 bucks, you can't really beat it!

[RBPOWA-(TJ)]

ahh finally exhaust is on, and pics have been taken

JJR front/dump from just jap. didnt fit up right need to be cut and re-welded, the bend is wrong and hits the crossmember

3" Xforce hiflow cat

Xforce MID muffler

Xforce read muffler with twin 3"tips
