I ordered the 3in SS exhaust from kteller and when i took it to get it put on. 5 different exhaust shops told me they sent me the wrong exhaust. the first part off that connects to the header lines up good compared to the second section. It seems off the header it was angle is off slightly. I second half is off completely. The exhaust shops told me they sent me the wrong piping , but that is were i disagree. the bends are like stock( i mean at the right location)or that they sent me the right one for the dc5. i just dont know if the exhaust is mainly turbo as the downpipe is different?do turbo kits position the downpipe back forth? Or this could be for all motor. Will the exhaust hang low for it to work for all motor. Im confused as what exhaust did i receive. Someone please help.

 

first of all, go ahead and give kteller a call.

3 inch piping is mainly for FI setups. our small engines cant utilize piping that big, so it will probably drop ur low end torque.

as far as the rest of your questions, i dont really know what you were talking about as you were a bit unclear in your post. possibly clarify it.

yep as he said 3 in exhaust it to big for our cars and used in FI cars, need the backpressure from smaller exhaust.

 

i saw on crsx the k responding very well to 3in with kpro all motor. The exhaust look like it was for my car its just that angles were off. despite what the exhaust shops claim wasnt for my car. Also does turbo make the downpipe sit further back than it would with a header. My bad for being confused i had a ruff nite and wasnt completely awake. i will contact kteller for help

3" exhaust is good for the K all motor, all of my friends with k-swaps are running 3" exhaust

 

yeah k all motor fully built not stock tho

 

on CRSX a RSX-S with I/H/ 3inch Exhaust made very nice hp gains but dropped 1 wtq

 

what 2 hp for a loss of 1 lb of torque? i'll pass on the 3 inc exhaust, our cars need all the torque we can get. 3 inch exhaust is to big for a stock 4 cylinder

I have been running k20a-R with RBC & header & 3" exh & hit 227/166 lb/ft of tq on a low reading dynapack (stock k20z3 did 165/134)

 

and i bet if you runner a smaller exhaust you'll have more torque (not to small) and your car will pick up a lot quicker because of low end.
