800hp at the wheels on stock engine he says.....not to take anything away from him but maybe the American dyno's playing tricks again. 596kw at the wheels on stock engine...

Also lol at the cam specs; 290IN and 280 EX

I dont know much about Apexi turbo's; Whats Twin RX6's good for hp wise?

EDIT: It's running 35psi and C16 haha, hardly a comparison or example for this thread

far out thats expensive for an exhaust.

my 4" system was heaps cheaper than that.

dump was about $400

cat was $200

cat back was $1200 from memory including custom made stock looking muffler

mid muffler was $200

then i also got a 4" cannon for the track from america for $150 delivered

when the stock look muffler is on it isnt realy any louder than the majority of 3 " systems

As it was mentioned earlier the racepace mufflers are really expensive as they are hand custom built by the team there to keep the flow characteristics of a large exhaust but have them sound super quiet. They only make them when asked to build a full exhaust they wont sell you a muffler etc. They said they only started doing it to look after their customers that wanted big power but very quiet for certain track restrictions and they couldnt find anything off the shelf that did the job.

So how loud is yours @ 5100rpm (stationary car)???

Saying it's not "really any louder" isn't really useful information, especially if it's 96dB+ cause thats farken loud and you will get noticed.

Thats not bad (and less that Paul was quoted), considering the effort that goes in, there's no reducers, it's tucked up to the body, quiet and flows bigtime - what else could you want from an exhaust really

Yea true ive emailed em back with a bunch of questions. If that price is with everything from the dumps to the tip its not bad, be nice if it was in ti hehe

Im in canada atm so cant really call, so ill wait for the email back to and c

Not sure how loud it is at 5100 rpm. But driving side by side with my brothers 200sx with full 3" exhaust, mine is no louder then his is n his is not very loud at all.

So that's the only comparison I can give.

For those who have the racepace systems; do they give you the luxury of choosing the style of tip and muffler? EG extra protrusion on the tip, angle cut, single or twin tip etc

Yes. Twin tips FTW. If you are down in VIC and are ever at a track day/DECA, the RP boys more often than not have twin tips so it looks more 'standard' looking.

I got a quote from Chris this time last year. From dumps back is was $4,650. If you have ever heard their 4 inch systems you can appreciate the work that goes into those babies. My twin 3 inch RP system seems a little louder on idle, but from inside the car when giving it hell all you can hear are the turbo's going nuts.

Wow, if might be time for a career change!

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
