Fast Intentions exhaust is here! (continued)

XwChriswX

1. Does your county/state have strict emissions laws?
2. Does your county/town have any noise ordinances?
3. Are you looking for most HP/$ or any particular sound?
4. Do you care about volume or in-cabin noise?
5. Is Rasp a problem for you?


Things to ask yourself when debating this... Knowing the answers can help your decision making.

county dont care i want more hp and less rasp and cabin noise

XwChriswX

HFC will give you less Rasp, but TP's will give you more HP.

LTH's will give you less Rasp and more HP.

what about art pipes? i heard lth isnt worth it

XwChriswX

Anyone with LTH's will tell you they are so worth it. Granted they aren't as cheap as HFC's or TP's, but cost doesn't really matter in the end to those who enjoy the sound and boost in low end after tunes.

ART pipes are TP's with a resonance chamber. That's all. Very similar to Resonated Test Pipes.

I know for a fact LTH's + 18" res SS CBE with Maf Tubes and Drop ins is 93.8dB @ 50ft @ full throttle.

Apparently they provide gains over traditional test pipes.

MOTORDYNE ART Pipes - Review

Still haven't seen enough independent dyno's to draw a conclusion though.

XwChriswX

I keep seeing people buying them, but no one posting dyno sheets.

i am just new with mods, just learning with techs.. my question is, is long tube headers has the cat converter with it? or you dont need to have HFC or TP be changed?

thanks!

XwChriswX

With LTH's they will replace the stock exhaust manifolds and the stock cats. LTH's will not come with HFC's. You will have an Open exhaust system.

Leas rasp with lth's? Interesting

With the F.I. LTH's, I don't hear any rasp. I have the 18" res SS cbe as well. It's a slightly higher pitched (more exotic) sounding tone than with HFC's or TPs. And is actually quieter at idle than HFC's.
