Should take no longer then an hour of labour if its a bolt on exhaust.

The process however, you may need to allow 2-3hrs as when you drop off the car the mechanics need to wait for the stock piping to cool down before removing. Usually charge around $80/hr so allow yourself at least $100 to be safe.

You could do the install yourself, saving you the cost of someone else doing it.

It would also save you the time of organising it to be done, and you can do it when you want.

A straight bolt on system is just that, you wont need to remove anything else because it is in the way.

Just unbolt at the flanges and remove the hanger rubbers from the old system, swap them over and the bolt in the new system into place.

As long as your not getting extrators it should only take a few hours.

I was gonna get these, put off by the 12 hr install time people speak of...

Ill have to do with HFC resonated and y-pipe!

OP: Google the install and do it yourself. There is nothing like knowing you did something on your own. !

Give Aaron from import monster a whirl,

depends on exchange rate etc but allow $2k-ish for product and delivery.

I got mine from Hi-Tech Mufflers (Sydney)... Cat-Back stainless steel.

I can't remember exactly how much it was but was around the $2k range.

Left it in the morning. Went to the gym for a couple of hours and it was finished.

I felt power gains as soon as I took off from the garage. But I didnt get a dyno done.

Sounds good when in full flight but just had a nice hum when just cruising.

I guess just depends on how much noise you want to make.

is it much louder than stock at idle and cruising? I hear hitech supposedly has the best gains power wise, but is not much louder than stock...

always loved the HKS but i hear they drone so that put me off... atm looking to import motordyne from the states, seems as good as HKS but without the drone

Yeah I was really impressed with the power gain. Felt real good.

To be honest at idle, its not much louder than the stock exhaust maybe 2 db louder, but even louder on cold nights and you'll definately notice the exhaust when starting the car. I really like the fact that I can take a long drive and not get a head ache from it but still turn heads when I launch it.

Check out my recent Wakefield Track Day video:

Silver 350GT... First minute of the video you'll see me flying down the straight followed by 2 different cars with louder exhausts. Its a good comparison. Turn it up to hear the difference.

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
