ANT Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Not as loud as an N/A car? Unsure, havent driven it yet, was getting wired today/2mrw, booked for exhaust next week + finish cooler piping as im redoing it for single turbo. Should be rapid enough. Similar setups make around 200kw with just a y pipe and cheap t3/4. so should be heaps for me as im used to the 3hp 1ge. Only problem is that i have no idea how im going to mount a decent sized exhaust under the car. The standard one is/gets destroyed and has been replaced every wof so far.. So basicly my cars to low. RS/Sedan life bitchs. Wont be at nats. Decided to sink the money i would have spent on nats into this thing as i have pissed around long enough. NEXT YEAR.

Fresh Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Its way quieter than NA. I have straight 2.5 inch all the way from turbos with a hotdog at about the the drivers foot well. Doesnt drone at 100ks at all. Nice and loud outside of the car when you give it some shit but still quiet enough when you nanna it. I had my exhaust all re-routed and got mods to my subframe done, I could have my car at 10mm and the exhaust wouldnt touch the ground. The chassis hits the ground first. If you dont go 3 inch you will be able to tuck the exhaust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANT Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Probs going to cut out subframe also. thinking of camber moding it while its out for lsd also. Churbo's here 2mrw ready for the exhaust shop next week. Progress is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fresh Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I meant to take some pictures of the mod but can only do it on a hoist as car is too slammed to see under it haha. Basically there is a small factory notch in your rear suspension subframe where the exhaust passes under it. Get someone to cut out and reinforce this notch so the exhaust tucks right up into the subframe, so it essentially passes through it rather than under it. Allows you to get your exhaust sitting up real nice and high. I am going to go single when I pop my twins. Y pipe/manifold + Turbo + Intake mods + Gen 3 1GGTE injectors = done.

Mitch.W Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Oh sweet yeah just looking under mine now seems pretty simple. I started on my y pipe but never finished it. I want my car running now your one sounds so nice! So the standard ecu works all sweet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachlander Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I know that notch..might have to do that when i go 1j. Exhaust scrapes like nobodies business Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANT Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 2.5inch zaust is cheap. 3inch is all mandrel bends so is more costly. Considered 2x2 for clearance, but if theres so much room up in there then i may go 3. We shall see once its on the hoist. Dude is good and a mate so can spend time on it and get it all right. My downspool shall own yours fresh.. xoxo. (i have blue bits for you also.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch.W Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 sweeeet! also what did you do for power steering lines? i need some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANT Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I didnt do the power steering. Just go get some pipes? Didnt you pull the motor out for your car yourself? So will have the factory ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANT Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Car runs. Sounds good with no exhaust straight off the turbos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANT Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 interiors mostly back together, I made a new headlining for it the other week so hopefully it works out okay, its all stock turbos, exhaust, for this weekend then next week im going to swap in f series rear end, LSD, 2.5inch zaust, Y pipe(maybe single manifold i hope) and t3/4, external wastegate and then be too poor to afford the wof reg cert part. fml. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANT Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Gay update. Basicly done nothing, except polish the shit out of it (need to finish bumpers) and hunt for the wheels i want. Not having alot of luck.Need to get some lower arms lengthened in the front too. Could go way lower in the front but needs skinnyer tyre's. Wheels will be for sale soon so not worth changing tyres. /14's 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
