ok well i have a ej1 so its got a z6. i have a gsr swap on the way and woundering what exhaust i should run... i think im gonna get 2.5 piping but im not real sure of the muffler.. i have a stock gsr muffler i was running wit the z6 but not sure what i should do.. what do u guys think i should do wit piping and muffler?

 

bump

 

If I were me I'd run 2.25" piping, although 2.5 would be ok. Anything bigger wouldn't be good. My personal favorite is the Greddy Evo II muffler.

 

so your sayin a 2.25 would be better for me then a 2.5..

 

I think you would be alright with either size.

 

Yeah you'll be fine with whichever you pick.

 

why im sayin 2.5.. i thought d series piping was 2.25... so i would think u would want a lil bigger for 1.8 bseries... but i dont know alot about exhaust

No, the stock piping isn't 2.25". 2.25" you'll be fine, and with 2.5" you'll be fine. It's all preference.

 

o ok... well i want to run as big or a lil bigger then stock piping for a gsr.. is that still smaller then 2.25 lol. sorry for all th questions. i like to know before i do...

 

what are your plans? turbo or na?

 

GSR stock exhaust is smaller than 2.25". A lot of people go with this size when going NA.

 

well for right now.. n/a for college but all of my friends have a turboed typeR,ls,h22.. so i dont believe it will stay n/a for long

 

well if you are boosting it soon, you might just want to go with the 2.5 because you will be in need of a bigger pipe soon anyway

 

well i guess that settles the piping part... now what muffler.. lol

Actually...if you are planning on boosting soon in the near future I'd just wait on the exhaust. Because I would go with 3" for boost. Otherise if you plan on staying NA for quite a while just get 2.25 or 2.5 and get a nice sounding muffler. I like the Greddy Evo II like I stated before

 

In terms of mufflers, and without enough on your car to make backpressure too critical, I would think the only thing you're really concerned about now would be the sound of the exhaust, right?

If so, click the link in my sig. It goes to the Official Exhaust Notes Thread, where people go to figure out what different exhausts sound like.

 

personally, when I want to know what an exhaust sounds like I go to youtube. everyone posts their car with a new exhaust and you can hear just about anything.

 

That's what a lot of the links go to, and more (streetfire, etc.). It's just a compilation of exhaust note videos that have been found to help the average H-Ter find what they're looking for.

 

i was thinkin more on the lines of how much backpressure i need.. or ne.. like wounderin if i should just use the stock gsr muffler
