Custom exhaust [Review]

Gunzero · 05-06-2010, 03:29 PM

Vroom vrooom!
Hey does anybody know if this "might" get any HP gains? Seeing as aftermarket exhaust usually free up the flow more.. I'm most likely wrong, but I was just wondering.

Nobody has dyno'd this. Why don't you be the first to do that? I mean, who knows? It's possible that you might gain a few HP.

^Well.. maybe

I did notice, however, when I shift from 1st to 2nd during aggressive acceleration with the VDC on.. the tire chirps. It didn't do that when it was stock.

Did you by chance also do a 'tire-tread delete' mod and just not tell us about it? (I'm just kidding with you.

)

Who are you directing that remark to? Me? Or these guys? I think my reaction has been pretty measured compared to . . .

Now lets wait for a Japanese company to come out with titanium exhaust spacers and charge $1200 for them.

That's just you changing your driving pattern, the tires could still be chirped from 1st to 2nd when stock.

Gunzero · 05-06-2010, 03:56 PM

I must say I'm amused. Gunzero, great way to find out how loud you want your exhaust to be. I will probably still buy an CBE, but for now I am enjoying the new exhaust note. In the end, the average car buff would not GAF about whether you spent 6 bucks or 1200. It sounds better than stock.

I do feel a little light-headed though!
