sorry would of whored with you guys but dad burst into the study going pyscho cos he was pissed off with mum then started going pyscho at mum as well - it was a huge domestic last night - would of kept the neighbours amused but im ok.

33Spec2,

I think there was a whole thread on exhaust sizing for NA cars. While turbo cars run best with not restriction, NA cars do require a certain amount of backpressure. So a hi-flowing 3" system might be too much for a small capacity engine (2.5L). I think the 2.25" is a good idea, it will save money still improve horsepower and sound tough. If you want to spend money then get a set of tuned length extractors, they will make a big difference.

See'ya:burnout:

The 2.25" zorst won't cost too much, bout $700, but extractors are expensive if you want proper tuned length. I'd ask a few exhaust places first to get an approximate price. All up about $1300 at a guess. Will make a difference, but still won't make the car super fast like mine:p

See'ya:burnout:

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
