Hi Guys,

I have ordered in a HKS Super Turbo Muffler for my R34 GTR as the current exhaust, a Tomei Expreme Ti is just to loud for me as a daily driver.

It came in from RHD Japan today, I will install it tomorrow.

It is going to be really interesting to see how much quieter it is, actually the sound will be very different I guess, going from Ti to stainless.

Anyway, here are some photos.

I will add more once installed.

The Tomei Extreme Ti looks p0rn !!! Might have to take it off your hands if you want to get rid of it for the right price :)

Well I will be happy to sell it :)

Only thing will be I have no idea who to get a shipping quote from??

But just to let you know I have one other guy from Sydney PM me last week, so he gets first dibs. I will try and get shipping quotes and let you know.

The sale thread is here:

Good post.

My Super Turbo Muffler will go on my car tomorrow.

I ordered that ahead of the Tomei Ti for the exact reason you discovered, that the Tomei is just too noisy for what I want in a daily driver car.

Going from a more restrictive Fujitsubo Legalis R (76mm) to the 85mm HKS should hopefully gain some HP for me in any case. :-)

Good luck with your fitting!

Hi Guys,

So I fitted the new exhaust and WOW, it is SO quiet now. I can't believe how much difference it has made.

Power wise I 'think' it is OK, based on the seat of my pants there is no difference, but only time will tell - I will get it back to Racepace at some point to run it up on the dyno and just see how it goes, but I really think it is no different to the Tomei.

This makes sense to as the pipe diameter on them both are the same, no difference.

I also prefer the look of a straight exit instead of angle exit.

As per normal HKS style the quality is fantastic.

Nice pics.

It's an awesome bit of kit isn't it? Very quiet (as quiet as my previous restrictive Legalis R) when idling or cruising, but makes a great sound when you give it some revs. Love it! :thumbsup:

Yes,

I am very surprised at how quiet it is!! Normal driving, especially freeway driving at 100 is really close to a standard exhaust.

And then when you open it up and give it some it really starts to roar.

Can't wait to get it on the dyno and see the impact, if any,

I'm pretty much sold on getting the Super Turbo after hearing it in real life and seeing it isn't that restrictive. Were you able to get a power figure difference between the Tomei and HKS?

The Tomei Ti is way to loud for the street and hurts your ears after a drive to and from work everyday.

The drone on the freeway sucked.

The HKS Super Turbo is awesome!!

I lost NO power at all and was making a comfortable 360rwkw at 19psi.

Ah Thanks for the advice... now the decision is down to HKS Super turbo or Mines Silence-VX Pro Titan III

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
