Without getting too technical, a full exhaust system (with muffler and piping provided plus installation) that is from turbo direct to the exhaust muffler without a resonator, would cost around the $1K mark, I have a Nismo exhaust that is turbo back - apparently cost the previous owner over $2K fully fitted, so I guess it's ok...depends a lot on the piping, installation and the muffler too.

Mild steel? I suggest you go full titanium where possible. What brand is the thing? Do your research brother instead of just going around splashing cash when it may add nothing or little performance gains to your ride.

Good luck.

lol what the hell? Who has a full titanium exhaust? You know how much one of those would set you back! Im guessing you were referring to stainless steel exhaust? There is no need for titanium on any street driven car.

That's a tad expensive for mild steel though. I'd expect a turbo-back stainless steel system to be around that price.

Depends on the brand i guess.

Xforce catback stainless steel - $800 ; take off $300 for mild steel

Hiflow cat - $200

Front/dump pipe - $200

Labour - $300

So around $1k for a mild steel system is reasonable, depending on brand and cost of installation.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
