My mate refers all his customers to Exhaust Techniques. Apparently they do a great job and explain everything to you so you know exactly what they're doing and why.

I haven't used them, but when the time comes, I'll be going there ;)

I got my exhaust done at Exhaust techniques. All i can say is im not happy with the quality of the welding done. They asked what i want done, I told the sales manager the muffler i wanted, and when i came back it was nothing like i said. If i had to do it again AAA near the city are the best ive heard.

I had my s/steel exhaust done at D&T Performance.

I'm happy with the note and loudness of the exhaust all though it is slightly louder than an average Jap exhaust.

No droning.

One thing I wasn't that happy with was the finish of the weld where the turbo flange welds up to the pipe. There is also a slight raise in the shape of a V in front of the compressor wheel due to the way they bent the pipe to mate up.

depends on the one you buy. I originally fitted a stainless N1 cat back - very loud as it only has a small rear muffler - but good power.

Changed to a Nismo dual muffler, which is very quiet, but a little less power (noise and back pressure are somewhat related). fujitsubo is another that make very good, quiet exhausts, but they still bark when you get angry, they just dont wake the dead:) There are several others that will do the same.

Generally, if it has dual mufflers ( and i am not talking about a skinny little claytons muffler ) they will be quite reasonable.

Interesting too, that I got nearly all my money back on the N1 exhaust, a good condition jap made exhaust will hold its value very well.

I got mine done at AAA exhaust. They have a mandrel bending machine on site so that means they dont have to sit there and weld up prebent pipes.

I got mine done full SS turbo back for 1100 from them. Top quality work, not a weld insight, wouldnt think about going anywhere else frankly.

You sound pretty happy with AAA, do you think they would do a split dumpipe aswell?, best way is to ring and ask them i suppose. Price sounds cheap, especially when most places are looking at close to the 1700 mark for a full stainless system. What kind of muffler did you get put on?, the usuall barrel style muffler?

Yeah Im pretty happy with them! Whats funny is they supply the mandrel bends to places like ET and D&T.

I got a cannon style rear muffler, Super Cat brand.. Its good enough. Fully polished S/S. I didnt see the point paying another 300 for an Apexi one. Also the price included a S/S 3" mid muffer aswell. (Proper one, not a resonator!)

The dump pipe I have is just a plain ol 3" one. It was $400 but I think what you can do Is buy a FLYN split dump or something like that, bring it in, and get them to make up the rest from there.

They really did some top quality work. I went to them after I saw a friends S13 with the same exhaust on his car. ld recommend them to anyone.....

Well I cant quantitate the noise really. But all I know is that i've compared it to a few other SR20s w/o a center muffler and mines alot quieter. Whether its legal or not, I dont know. Its still probably not. Since when is any 3" free flowing exhaust fully legal? haha

And yes, it included the dump/front pipe too. :P

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
