Varex Exhaust Connection Question

[hop1308]

so i finally went to the exhaust shop n got it checked out. turns out my control box isnt working (the little black box that reverses polarity n that) they're asking for $70 for a new one with the remote. I've barely got any cash at the moment and was wondering if anyone knows of any places to get them cheaper?

or better yet, i've heard there are ways to by pass the box totally, and just have it wired to a switch or something? i get it takes 12v to close and something about reversing the polarity to open again?

3 position switch wired to two relays. Up on switch open, down on switch close, middle position off

I could do up a diagram but I'm on my phone

[hop1308]

I found this diagram on the internet, is this correct? I don't really understand what its saying. hopefully i can find someone that does :s

or this this the correct diagram bellow?

watching closely as mine only works like 50% of the time and I dont want to have it stuck closed

Depends on the switch but the top diagram looks good. You'd have to double check the wiring diagram in whichever switch you choose

couldn't figure out how to do the wiring at all. just bought a new control box and remote. works a charm.

car sounds stock with the butterfly closed.

I've looked into the legality of it, and it seems the whole system itself is illegal no matter what. because there is a way for that exhaust to be louder than the legal limit, and it can be called a noise cloaking device or somethin like that. not too sure how to get around this if i get pulled over lol

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

lol that's what i said on p1

you just have to hope they dont notice

[hop1308]

the massive VAREX written ontop of the cannon itself doesnt help. i wish i could sand it off.. seriously considering just putting black tape over it lol, but that might draw more attention to it :\

yeah that shits me.... they want to be stealth, but they go and do that

I didn't buy mine tho, it was on the car when i got it so meh
