another exhaust thread
Hey guys, I know there's existing ones, and I have read through them, just a little confused... + a little lazy lol
so it's time I upgraded the the exhaust...
so I'm thinking about 2.5" mandrel bends, high flow cat, 1 resonator, twin exhaust at the back (going to stick to something similar to the stock ones, but just on both sides), and I'm deciding if I want to get extractors now or later as well.
Can someone recommend a good high flow cat.
any recommendations on the tips?
Should I get the extractors? where from? RPW? (i've heard good and bad things about them... can anyone confirm any of it?)
any other suggestions?

Re: another exhaust thread
Only heard bad things about RPW's copied version of the hurricanes and have been told to stand clear from them. So thats up to you.
It's up to you if you want extracters man, depends... do you want a little extra KW? Personally, unless your fully gonna repair your car and gonna throw some dosh at it I wouldn't bother, but thats up to you yangsta. (Please don't take any offense from that
)
Yeah 2.5" is the right size & no idea on tips man, i'm gonna be getting the varex 3" twins... aswell on both sides, because well, I like the twins and I want the option to shut the drone off while on long trips etc / not feeling like it. But thats just my choice.
When you find a shop and if they do a good job + price for you I might waddle my ass down there and get mine done... hehe.
Goodluck yangsta... oh and... happy birthday.

Re: another exhaust thread

It cost her $300 including a tip which I thought was freakn cheap... the thing is its a 3 1/4" ... DON'T ask me why... i asked her the same thing and couldn't result with an answer.. so anyway. I dunno if its so cheap because of the size.. or what not. But I still got the name of the place.
Its muffler mad and they are at browns plains.. so not to far from us.
Just putting it out there, maybe get a quote or something

CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

Re: another exhaust thread
I would buy the extractors + high flow cat first.

Re: another exhaust thread
First before the catback.
I really think the stock extractors and cat are the 2 weakest links in the exhaust.
If one of them exists, you wont be utilizing your upgrade to its full potential. This is what I found when I had my catback done first. Plus we know that the stock end muffler does not restrict too much as the tip does give much performance gains. Maybe on the high end.
