It's all right for tonight, cruising in a corvette and feeling alright!


Recommended Posts

haha, well considering the engine is being pulled it wont be available. Damn baffled sumps! :D. Anyway, CES fitted mine and just used 2 normal 2.5" cats and tilted them sideways to fit, not sure if this picture shows it properly though. The bar only melts when I go to the track, cause it is such a big heavy exhaust, when doing serious corners it must press against the side of the gap for the zaust. You mustn't be driving hard enough eh?? hehe, jokes :Pimp2:

LoL, i drive it hard.. jus never had a chance to take it on the tracks yet.. Have you dynoed it after you put on the zaust? i got 215kw@all4s with just the zaust and pods (stock boost). I thank the zaust for the good power. Also what dump pipes do u have? Im still using the stock dumps.

I got 197awkw on the mercury motorsport dyno with just the exhaust and a nismo panel filter(stock boost also). Still got the stock dumps for the minute, but one of the things going in atm is a pair of hks dumps to finish the exhaust. I am interested to see what, if any, difference they make.

the wastegate sound will be louder i know that much. it should also give it a diffrent tone. those stock dumps are shocking, i cant belive i had stock dumps at 300awkw. when they pulled the stock dumps off i couldnt belive how badly they reduce in size :O

CES make there own dumps, thats where i got mine from n e way. just make sure u get the HPC coated ones.

i think they were around $900

give them a call.

check out there website

the hks dumps actully go down in size at the bottom of the pipe which is STUPID !!! why o why would they do that ??? doesnt make sence,

thats why i went the CES ones they were bigger than the HKS DUMPS and arrived the same day i ordered them :O

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
