im wondering how restrictive if any this exhaust it. ill be running a t3/to4e on a b18c1 with this twinloop. im afraid it MAY be too restrictive. any insight? at the time i have 2.5 inch piping from the cat all the to the muffler. thanks

IMO, it's probably too restrictive for forced induction. You want something that is straight through.

 

Scooter Runs one, And he has 280+whp with Junk Yard setup and Stock ITR engine!

i actually want it to be quiet and not too noticeable on the street. since i live in cali its kinda risky for a loud exhaust. i was looking at the HKS carbon/ti one, thats a universal 3 inch. if i get that one i wonder how loud it would be even with the silencer.

loud!.....not enough material to dampen the sound.....great looking exhaust...but you'd be better off with a magnaflow....or a greddy sp or ws if you want a catback....

 

damn, its just so damn pretty.. .haha. i think i have to look for a discreet looking muffler. i love my mugen cuz its hidden up there and most people wont even give it a second glance.

turboed cars generally run quieter than na cars do, at least from the back of the car. keep that in mind.

 

Turbo blades actually act like a mufler them selfs as the sound backs back off the blade.

 

thats what i figured, but in the most part, if i punch it, it may still be loud... hehe i think i should wait to see then make my decision. id hate to give up my TL...

I dont care how much power I lose....in the future, I am getting a mugen twinloop. I love the sleeper sound+ 3 inch electronic exhaust cutout

Very true I know a guy that runs a open 3 in. His turbo car is not as loud as my n/a 2.0 with resonator and a flomaster. I dyno large diesel engines (27 liters) every couple weeks. Due to the set up it is impossible for us to dyno with mufflers. The difference between muffled (installed in equipment) and non muffled is minimal

 

There is a huge noise level difference between NA and turbocharged engine. My teg got 3 times louder since removing the turbokit And my exhaust is a catback..

 

but has anyone ever heard the 3inch HKS carbon/ti muffler at WOT, idle, and cruising speeds (like highway and freeways)? id love to know. that the only thing id consider replacing my TL with.
