guys my DC5 type r will be out soon. wanna ask wether it is worth to equip my car with the 3inch S2 mega power system, or shall i just stick to apexi N1 with 2.3inch. the engine is relatively stock with open pod air filter set and pre-tuned emanage ultimate + vmanage.

appreciate if you guys can also post d pics of the S2 exhaust on a RSXs..

thanks.

 

bigger exhaust means bigger power. i say skunk2. its up to you tho

 

thats what i have in mind. someone is selling the S2 dirt cheap, and it looks way nicer than apexi LOL.

 

this is false!!!

Bigger exhaust can make you gain or loose power... it all depends on the application!!!

A N/A car will loose power with a 3'' exhaust but a turbo'ed car will make more power with a 3'' exhaust then a 2.5''... its having the right amount of back pressure!

 

yup he's right

 

davesi is correct. bigger exhaust doesn't equal bigger power. for your current mods i'd stick with the 2.3"

 

my na car oddly gained power at 3inches.. weird.... not weird at na people use 3 inch all the time and make great numbers.

 

Bigger means more if you get the right suitable for the mods that are on your car .

 

your mods dont really scream hey i need three inch tho, not worth the loudness. but im pery sure you car will gain something even if you put the 3 inch on.

 

its a kseries engine bigger always means more in this case.

 

you are false,plenty of dyno proven charts on CRSX that prove the k series loves the 3" exhaust. A B series n/a would loose power yes.

But for the TS if you dont plan on doin i/rh/tune and any other mods kinda overkill but awesome!

 

Your thinking like these k's are like the b's. These are engines built to breath alot. Skunk2 built these for reason for the k's and differently for the b's. Yeah alot of back pressure is lost when using it on a b series na but with a transverse engine the exhaust exits quik making back pressure over rated for the k's.

 

I took a look and I was impressed the only thing is that he mentions that his line goes from a 2.5'' to a 3".... so its not a full 3" line althought that being said I believe that probably the way the K was designed it might need the extra .5'' to be able to make maximum power.

I am going to research this a little more looking for other dyno graph as I cannot fully believe this after just seeing one chart... but I can't say that I am completly right! So basically I will get back to you on this lol...

Btw good find Type-'S'paz

 

umm well ive had multiple customers make great numbers while using a 3 inch, most of which have used a smaller exhaust. i went from a 2.36 to a 3 inch and opened up about another 12 hp on th tune an about 8tq

 

appreciate your response guys.

i might just buy and keep it for future use.

any pics of RSXs with the exhaust?
