exhaust systems advice

hey guys so i am wanting some advice
i want my car to sound nice an deep/low sounds not the connon sound..
so i was thinking of geting 1/2 or 3 inch pipe with 2 hi-flow cats and the tips
but my mate was telling me i will lose power is this right? can any one tell me what exhaust systems would be the best for the low deep sound ( the v8 sound) lol

if you have pics of vids of yours please post them up


thanks

 

twin 2.5" system, madrel bends and some quality mufflers like magnaflows.

 

You can not have an exhaust system too large for a turbo car. Bigger is always better from a performance point of view.

From a cost and done perspective though....

Twin 2.5" is what I would do.

Seconded on Magnaflow's, love those mufflers :zlove:

 

my car is only a n/a

 

THIS... possibly add a x-pipe in too to eliminate drone, can be especially bad on NA's...

 

2.5 is still your best bet

 

And thus, you have my exact exhaust setup. +Stainless

 

Go with 2.5" do not go bigger it would just be a horrible tone with a NA being a dual exhaust remember! ..
not to mention possibly loosing backpressure.

A nice 2.5" with mendrel bends, some high flow cats, a kiss/x merge pipe and a good set of mufflers should give you a really rich sound..

if you are after some more noticable volume in your exhaust not some extractors actually help with that i noticed on my old NA .

 

thank you so much every one for your help 2.5 it is will upload vids once i get it all done

 

Where on earth did you get them?!

 

Probably TTZ ones, i have heard that LHD ones can be modded to suit but not sure...

 

I have extractors on my NA as well, got them through... somewhere. I think it might've been TTZ ones. There was a group buy done on then a while back, run by member ZeDHeD

 

howmuch are extractors?

 

You'd be hard pressed to find some new for sale to fit a RHD, I'd PM ZeDHed to see if he can point you in the right direction, I reckon.

 

pay for what you get, mine were actually a custom job, took it to a local joint but TTZ can do them.. try Sureflo exhaust if your in NSW they might be able to help you out too.

 

John from UAS said it's about a grand in labour to modify LHD extractors to fit...

 

That sounds about right (according to him).... just take it to an exhaust shop, or better yet leave the OEM manifolds on there.

 

a new update just went into ' right price exhaust' they told me that 2.5 is way to big for a non turbo 300zx and i will lose back pressure!! can any one give me some info on this?

 

I have twin 2.5" on my NA and my car has good power all throughout the rev range.
