How do you feel about this?
Im looking for a new exhaust because i sold my invidia n1. (You guessed it, too droney lol)
So im looking for a new exhaust but i was wondering how you guys feel about exhaust set up that slips over, like they dont have any flange, they slip over each other with a clamp. Is it good? Is it bad? Just as good as a flange or vband? Tell me! And if you guys have any suggestion for a nice catback that wont drone as much as the N1 tell me! (I have gruppe s uel headers and over pipe, invidia resonated catless front pipe) I have either the agency power or the greddy revolution rs in mind for now. Thanks !!! |

You mean cutting off an existing flange? Wouldn't be my first choice.

From my experience, exhausts that slip on are prone to leaking. No where near a flange or v band in terms of sealing. If I had the choice, the way to go would be v band all the way, but flanged exhausts are not too bad either.

You mean like Borla kits?
They last ok. Till they leak, but just a quick re torque and it's good till you re torque them or actually weld them shut.

Adding a cat back into the frontpipe will help drone too...

Been there. Will never do again. It can become a nightmare of shifting components and chasing leaks in a hurry. Tighten one clamp half a turn too much and you are screwed.

I've had the milltek catback on for close to a year, daily driven. It uses slip joints at the midpipe-to-muffler joint as well as from the muffler to the tips. No leaks or other issues.
When you install you should put it through a heat cycle (or several) and then retighten all the clamps once cooled. This will help prevent leaks. I also used anti-seize on all the joints which should help "seal" it to some extent IMO catback choice comes down to exhaust note. As long as it's a reputable brand you should pick what sound you like best Last edited by brazy; 02-12-2018 at 10:05 AM. Reason: my browser annoyingly adds giant margins in between paragraphs |

I feel the title of this thread is not very descriptive.
