Looking to build or buy an exhaust that is super stealth and quiet but is non restrictive up to around 350kw. (no i do not want to go a varex muffler)
Currently running 3inch turbo down to cat then a 4inch kakimoto.
I was thinking from cat back run a 3inch exhaust with 2 mufflers ? any other ideas or sneaky stuff people have done ?

What do you mean sneaky?

I ran a hooker aero chamber and a Berkeley straight through at the rear. Was under the legal vole by a fair bit, no drone and flowed over 300 rwkw.

Research exhaust design. Two mufflers the same don't do much more than one. Fit the biggest mufflers you can fit. Look at branch resonators if you have a particular frequency drone you want to cancel.

I tried a few combos until I was happy with the result.

By sneaky I mean running a stock cat back exhaust then running a waste gate with a small pound spring to vent out exhaust gases. attachicon.gifImageUploadedBySAU Community1423175348.468724.jpg

Like so :) ^

very cheeky indeed, similar to how OEM cars get away with noise. If you crack open a stock EVO muffler it uses a little flapper to control noise when doodling around town.

I have the HKS silent hi power on my GT-t. Has a Hypergear SS2 turbo, custom 3' dump and front pipe and hi flow cat and its really quiet at idle. I can confirm that the nismo is quieter having been on a few cruises with Raj.

And I'm currently making 320.6 rwkw at 22psi on E85 so it doesn't appear to be too much of a restriction

plus one for the Nismo.... i put one the 3" version on a N/A skyline and it was still very quiet and sounded batter than any custom system i had heard before.... i was very suprised when we started and drove the car.

another option is like the exhaust i have i think its a fubijsbu its a twin 2.25 inch system with a single straight through muffler at the rear and 2 resonators, passed EPA and flowed 350kw

I got a full 3.5" turbo back exhaust with a custom oval 3.5" muffler and a custom AES 3.5" rear round muffler

Nice and quiet and doesn't drone, been pulled over for rbts and by random cops in the city and even asked to rev the car and they were happy with the volume

So far flows 450kw ample for your power

If that thing had any mufflers in it in the first place!! They are both far too small to do anything. Replace the centre one with the biggest oval centre-centre muffler you can. Replace the rear one with the biggest muffler (probably oval again) you can. Instant fixup.

    • It could be in the tune but in both cases it couldn't be completely solved or eliminated by some of the best tuners in victoria so I'm DOUBTFUL that it's in the tune or ECU but stranger things have happened of course. I've pondered that theory too but is there any theories that thinner and smaller ports overall would cause a turbo to spike? I would've thought it would just restrict it in general if it was small enough to make a difference. I wouldn't expect it to make a different at what is essentially sub 300kw at 4000rpm anyway. I think the next step is going to have to be the 6psi spring to rule out the idea that the gate is cracking open far too wide initially. At least that is the cheapest (free) thing to check initially.
    • I'm thinking it is skinny NA Neo port sizing and cams. Somehow.
    • -5’s did it. 8474 did it. Not hot side related. ECU related? 🤨🤪
    • Above you mentioned you only need to sand primer if there's an issue with it but with fillers it says the surface needs to be sanded to X grit beforehand. Does that sorta contradict that point as the primer hasn't been sanded yet? At the same time if I sand the primer, there's a good chance I'll expose the bare metal and I'm just chasing my tail at that point. Or I'll just use a sand sponge instead of sandpaper, it seems to be far finer in terms of abrasiveness as opposed to sandpaper. From what I understand, filler is like primer and needs scratches from the sandpaper to help it adhere to the panel. I realised the way I'm doing things is actually a bit counter productive as there's a chance after I put filler I will need to put epoxy primer again as opposed to putting the filler first and potentially no primer if I don't go to bare metal. Will keep this in my mind for the rest of my repairs.
    • Not without making up a new screamer pipe from scatch I don't think based upon the angles of the current return. Backpressure shouldn't be an issue though as the straight gate isn't affected by backpressure in the same way that a poppet valve is, and on top of that the exhast system is 4" all the way through so there should be minimal pressure if any to begin with.
