My neighbour has a WRX with a carbon fibre cannon that cost him 550 bucks alone.. I could get a full 3.5" straight-through system for about that money.

I'd be interested to hear otherwise.

This is too true.

When was the last time you saw a WRC Rex with a cannon?

when was the last time you saw any track car with a cannon?? that said though, when was the last time cops let you off with the exhaust coming out under the doors?? WRC cars do have a rear muffler, its more like a square box though i think, well it was last time i looked at one.

I have a cannon, I'd love a straight pipe... but my cannon is loud as it is so how the hell do you guys with straight pipes expect to pass EPA/cops/rego? Also talk to people in your car and not get headaches everytime you're in there because the helmet you're not wearing isn't muffling the sound?

]']hm..

cannons may look nice on some cars

but too loud for my liking

i love my Fujitsubo oval muffler ;)

Yep go the Fujitsubo......Although I reckon the original tips on them are a bit small.

So I changed mine to a 5.5inch :D

Still dont mind the look of cannons....but only on the right car and when its angled

Prefer Titanium cannons these days as oppose to the shiny ones....

Ganador Titanium exhausts with titanium cannon... :drooling:

simple, drown it out with a sound system lol

ya i've got an apexi "super megaphone" cat back exhuast,,, it is so quiet!!!

sometimes i can't even tell if the engine is running or not.

but with a name like "super megaphone" you'd think otherwise!! haha

its a bit on the shiny side though,,,

well... if your not concerned about the whole legal thing.. straight through of headers/ dump, no cats or resonators, mild dull steel.. :uhuh:

I see ricer shitboxes all the time. Just laugh. theres this old lancer near my work..dead stock...monster tacho..hks blitz trust ect...really cool plastic mesh on the frount.. :aroused:

I agree... Cannon mufflers are over-used these days on far too many lame cars.

I think cannons look great on certain cars, 200's, supra's, and some wrx's, but its pathetic to see a 4" cannon on festiva's etc.

I actually like twin cannons on skylines.

And for what it's worth... here's my exhaust.

    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
