what a spew hey, hope you sort it out. chasers have a stock item im pretty sure.

u could just put a muffler on it to shut it up and quieten it down or a resonator

i wouldnt goto the effort to change dump/cat/full system etc to pass epa test

unless you really had to of course

krzysiu,

Have you taken it to an exhaust shop to get it tested yet?

I got the same letter, took my car to get it tested and it was spot on 90 dB, therefore legal....

I thought mine would fail dismally but it passed.... Get it checked for $25 bucks and then you get a document saying its right and you can keep it in the glovebox to say that the exhuast is inside regulations.

BASS OUT

Hey Bass, I got the EPA letter and it saye this on the bottom:

NOTE FEE INCREASE

The approved noise tester will charge the following

for a noise test

From 9 May 2005 - $33.75 (including GST)

From 1 July 2005 - $34.60 (including GST)

Can you also tell me the size of your exaust because i will get annoyed if i pay 35 bucks and i fail, then i have to do it again = 70bucks :) Not that much but its still some money that cat be better spent on a saturday night ;)

cheers

I have a Fujistubo Power Getter high high flow cat and Blitz front pipe, stock dump pipe.

Go to the exhaust shop, tell them you got the notice, ask them to listen to your exhuast, they will know soon enough whether it is over or not.

Ah ok, bad thing is i got some Big Jap Spec Dump pipe, and a full stainless steel 3.5 inch Turbo back Blitz system.

Thanks for the advice, ill just take it and let them have a listen.

i had the same thing with mine, was too loud so all i did was get a smaller muffler on the rear for the check, when i got home just put the cannon back on :)

this is very simple dude, and if u know that u r only a few dB's over then fill it with chicken wire

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
