question for ppl who have had their exausts done

[shue]

ok another girl question, im gettin my extractors ( finally ) next week and wanna know what else would i have to do to my exaust. the last time lee took a look at it he said all it had was the shiny tip and everything else is stock. ive got a hks dragger "tip" and am gettin the extractors. would i need to get a cat back system as well to make it a propa system or what else would i need to get along with the extractors? and where would i get the cat back system. whats a high flow cat? and where do i source all of this?

The extractors will bolt on to the existing cat & rear section, but if you want to get max power out of it - redo the ass end. Get a high flow cat & high flow mufflers on a nice peice of 2.5" pipe all the way to the tip.

Some folks have bought off the shelf cat backs, some have them made up. I had mine made custom & out of stainless, with mega expensive cats & mufflers - it cost me $1300... (but hey, being non-mivec, I gotta squeeze every kw out of it )

You could theoretically get it done right for probably half that cost.

ive already got the back end which came with the car , thats the hks dragger tip is that the muffler? , and now im gettin the exractors from rpw this week. should i take it to an exaust place and get them to make me a catback system? or do i redo all the piping from the extractors right to the arse end?

[quote="shue"]the hks dragger tip is that the muffler? quote]

Yep - so in your case all you need to do get the cat & middle muffler (there's another one just behind the cat) plumbed up to your Dragger...
no need to replace that.
Should be sweet then!

how much am i looking at for that? where do i get the catback and the other muffler? is a high flow cat better or is a cat back better in terms of performance?

[Bennoz]

Any exhaust shop can do this for you - probably best to try find a performance exhaust shop. Getting a high flow cat is both beneficial for power & fuel consumption. Most shops have cats & mufflers to suit on the shelf - there's no FTO specific type. You could probably get it all done & fitted for about $500 I'd say.

Hey Desert, what did that cost you ? I spoke to dave at RPW and he suggested a 2.5" press bent with lukey muffler and ultra flow resenator with a 2.5 universal 2.5" cat.
