Hi Guys,

I would really appreciate the help.

I am looking to purchase a Trust Power Extreme II Cat back with the BATMBL combination.

If any people out there who have a PEII setup, would you be able to tell me if its loud in the cabin as well as outside? I prefer to not have the cops pulling me over all the time.

Please do let me and others know what your opinions are on the Trust PEII catback exhaust.

Thanks fellas.

:rant:

I've got Michael's dump pipe and a PEII on my 33 GTST. It's quite quiet for it's size. Really nice note, and not a droney exhaust.

As for fitting, everything bolted straight up. Although the centre muffler seemed to be quite close to the rear driveshaft, so I had a spacer put on to make the exhaust sit a bit lower.

Apart from that, I love it! :/

Are you ordering it from Nengun? Their prices look pretty good, even with $400 shipping.

Shipping exhausts is about $400? Damn - I almost bid on a Nismo cat-back on Yahoo Japan auctions the other day but was unsure about the shipping costs....

At that price its worth ditching the cat back and just getting the brand name muffler and fabricating the piping over here. Plus you could get it done stainless over here with a better looking hotdog resonator and it would be a great system overall. Cheaper than shipping from Japan.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for all your feedbacks. Much appreciated.

I checked out Nengun and he has got R33 PE II for ~ $580 + ~ $337 for shipping = $917 and may take upto or more than 5 days to get delivered.

I have managed to find a source in Melbourne that can provide brand new Trust PE II for $910. I suppose "saving is still a saving".

Let me know if you guys are interested or if you know anyone who could be interested in this.

Thanks guys.

:D

Yep. that is so true. Atleast you can rock up to Autobarn and talk to them face to face.

I have been emailing Nengun for the past week and he hasnt even gotten back to me about prices, costs.

I was looking to get a Fujitsubo Legalis R through a guy for my GTT. He ended up sending the GTR one and still has not replied to any one of my emails.

Recently got the Fujitsubo Super Legalis R on my r33 gts25t, personally i stilll think its too loud compared to stock, hey Razorsharp, need to meet up with you some time to compare, i know on idle the Fujitsubo is loudish, i haven't revved my car yet because still braking in the engine so can't tell you what it sounds like on full throttle.

i use to have an Apexi N1 and it was VERY LOUD, ahahh too loud for my liking, but i've got high flow cat and custom front pipe and alot of other mods (forged pistons, high flow head etc etc) that could affect the noise level as well, BUT personally i'll prefer the Trust PE2, from experience on a s15 and other ppl's opinion everyone said its nice and quiet.

my 2 cents

Yeah, thats the impression i had when i looked at the pics of. It has a pretty big resonator. I m really not a big fan of the cat-pipe-muffler solutions, too loud on idle.

I ended up talking to Autobarn and got it from them. Thanks razor. :)

If anyone is interested in the PE2, i would be more than happy to organise group buy. I can have a word with Autobarn and get some good prices. Shipping costs from Japan and then the waiting is extremely annoying.

You're right - the N1 catback is same price as the PE2 and the N1 muffler comes out at an angle. I hate that look.

RedBaron: Do autobarn have stock of these PE2? I wonder if they could get a catback in for an R34 GTR?

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • 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.
