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.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
