Picked up my car this morning, resplendent in new heatwrapped mid pipe, 100 cell hiflow cat, and shiny Fujitsubo exhaust fitted. Now it's 3" from turbo to tip.

Canak Autosport did a beautiful job on the mid pipe; tucked up nice and close to the floor, out of harms way. Cost a little more than I expected, but there's almost $400 in cat, flex joint and flanges.

Sounds brilliant, no drone, just a sweet rumble at idle, and nice rasp as you rev out. Now pushes almost 15 psi instead of 12, feels so much more responsive!

One very happy camper.

Bet that sounds shit hot also Daleo..as well as looking quite smart! *thumbs up* :O

Im actually wondering if the HKS suited for the M35 sports muffler on my full 3" system from scotty actually gives more power than the fujtsubo / kakimoto M35 systems. I know the Fujitsubo and Kakimoto's have a much nicer quieter tone. (bit like a rexy bob)

My question is would there be any difference as mine is like 50 times louder?

I think it comes down to the design more so than how loud it is.

Both the Fujitsubo and Kakimoto exhausts are designed to flow as much air with as little restriction as possible while their muffler setups use vastly different designs to control the sound/volume

I think that the only way to tell if yours makes more power would be to dyno them back to back on the same car.

You can't look at Scott's dyno results for a comparison between the two because he changes shit on his car every second day :O

hrmm good Point Iain.

Im wondering if scott has any dyno's done with just that exhaust mod from stock :huh:

and what impact it had...would be interesting to know the difference for sure.

Cheers!

Had the 260RS profesionally detailed today. Got the lot done for $300 which I recon is bloody cheap! Then brought it home and polished the GReddy intake pipes. Man I love this car even more now!! :)

A bit lame but bought some 15mm hubcentric spacers from JustJap.

Matt@JustJap had them delivered to my door within 3.5hrs (ordered 10.15am sitting on the doorstep at work by 1.45pm). That is outstanding service and deserves a pat on the back.

I have a HKS2835ProS going on next week to replace the perfectly fine HKS GT-RS which will be a more interesting mod. More on this next week.

I asked for the system to be fitted when I bought the car so no pre graphs, I cant even remember what it drove like... I think the words were "4 cats, you are kidding right". :blink:

its not like we are remotely the same, he has a gay coloured car!!

lol... and you have a stock kinda car (or is that a "gonna" kind of car :laugh:) with an old-man interior!

Anyway, minor-ish service on my Stag today - oil, cleaned intake and a/c filters, changed plugs etc, etc...

      Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.

      From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
