Aftermarket Exhaust Kit
 
Hello again need some help picking a Exhaust kit to put on my 86 when I purchase it was just wondering if any of you guys have a custom exhaust kit on your cars and what would be best for me as I really don't know to much about cars I'm looking for a kit that makes it sound really loud and deadly if that makes sense. At the same time though I don't want to be out of pocket a fortune the most I'm willing to pay is probably around 1600$ Aus if I need to go higher I will as I don't want something cheap and flimsy either if you guys know of anything and could possibly post a website that ships to Australia and a video of what it sounds like it would be greatly appreciated, thank you :)

If you want loud you're going to have to get a system that deletes the resonators and cats aka go straight pipe and if you want quality you're probably going to have to fork out more money.

Videos of exhaust systems don't do it justice you have to hear them in person to get the full experience.

Some people say the invidia n1 is loud. You can pair that with headers if you want even more volume.

I'm currently running a cat less front pipe with a muffler delete and I think it's pretty loud as well and also much less expensive than an invidia n1

Just go to a meet and listen to some in person. Or see what your local speed shop recommends/has.

From what I understand the Australian police are much more stringent on the compliance of car mods so you may want to check things out locally before going with a loud system. Loud exhaust is one of the easiest ways to attract attention and it may not go well for you.

I went custom, but reason is opposite than yours. I wanted single exit that's quiet.

If you want loud exhaust Tomei header back... I'll guarantee you, you'll be deaf in <1yr.

Ichitaka05: Sounds what i'd love to have aswell. I guess all current available single exhaust aftermarket options are loud ones and together with uncatted header might be below bearable?

I have Ace header and it does make it loud... but thinking of making custom front pipe with cat and res to reduce the rasp and loudness.

I second ButeraFRS when it comes to listening for exhaust clips in videos. They do little justice. I'm running a full catless UEL set up with the N1 catback and it's pretty damn loud. Sometimes I feel like it isn't loud but I have let a buddy of mine punch through the first few gears and it made me cringe. Cold start is kinda past ridiculous, I feel a sense of guilt every time I start my car in the morning. All in all I love the way my car sounds. I believe there's a resonator in my midpipe that's toning the loudness a bit for my car. Like Butera said, straight pipe all the way would be your best bet for loud and deadly.

Thank you everybody for your suggestions will do some research on them :)

Here is another option:

https://shop.namelessperformance.com...haust-brz-frs/

With 5" mufflers it's rather tame, with a bit of a growl.

With no mufflers ..... it will be louder.

Then if you want louder, you can start chopping out resonators and cats.

Still louder ?..... install an aftermarket header.

Tomo3101 09-27-2016 12:16 AM

Thanks @humfrz so if I wanted it louder removing the resonator and cats would be the go now I know not to much about cars would doing that be easy or hard also would installing the exhaust the link you sent me would that be an easy job or a job for a local mechanic ?

Tomo3101 09-27-2016 12:31 AM

@hunfrz just had a look mate it's going to end up costing me around 900$ because of shipping here to Australia the reviews on it look great.

Hi ya Tomo3101,

About the sound, although you stated that you wanted something "really loud and deadly", if you are going to use your car as a daily driver and/or on trips, you may wish to reevaluate "really loud and deadly" or you and your co-pilot may wind up doing the suffering.

I have the nameless axle back with 2.5" piping and the 5" mufflers and even though I'm half deaf, I personally wouldn't want the exhaust any louder. So, I figured the no muffler version would be just about right for you.

The next easiest step to louder, would be to remove the resonator in the mid-pipe. Any muffler shop can cut it out and weld in a straight piece of pipe. However, before you consider that I would suggest you first just change the axle back and drive it that way for a while ...... you may decide that's plenty loud.

As far as installing the nameless axle back, it's quite easy and straight forward. There are only 4 rubber hangars and two bolts/nuts. It's easier if you run the back of the car up on ramps, unscrew the nuts from the two bolts and wrestle the muffler off the hangars. The new one goes on just like the old one came off.

OR, you could use the "humfrz" method ....... which is take it up to your local auto or muffler shop, read a car magazine, have a cup of coffee, pay them about $35 and they will do it before you finish your cup of coffee......;)

Tomo3101 09-27-2016 12:46 AM

Thanks for the great information Humfrz I would definitely drive it like that to see if I wanted it any louder and haha I probably would wind up using your method then if I decided to thanks again for the great information mate greatly appreciated.

You aren't wrong there! Though I have a single exit blast pipe made of cheap ol' mild steel that sticks out on some retarded angle. No worries at all!

If you want LOUD A/F, the Invidia N1 is the shot. You could get headers and a test pipe and N1, it's a straight through with twin cannons. No resonators or nuffink.

I had Tomei UEL, SME over pipe, catless front pipe, Perrin 2.5" resonated (reduce rasp). When N/A, this set up was noice and loud but surprisingly zero drone. Until you even breathed on the throttle ;D

Without looking at headers, here's a break down of cost from CMA

Invidia N1 - $1190
SME Over Pipe - $285
Hyperflow Racepipe - $249

Is about $1725 - around $1750 AUD shipped. Little bit over cost but if you ring them, they might do you a deal.

That would be noice and loud AF for you!!

Tomo3101 09-27-2016 06:07 PM

Thanks @COO86L
I will go check it out now mate little bit more then I would be comfortable paying all in one hit so would it be possible to buy the invidia N1 install that and if I want the over pipe and race pipe I can install that later? Sorry I don't know to much about this area.

COO86L 09-28-2016 12:45 AM

To be honest, if all your after is noise I'd go for just the race pipe and catback.

When you buy headers is when I'd also buy the overpipe. Because it's a pain to remove!!

Talk to Tim or Dee or Dan, they should be able to do a good deal. And postage is like 14 bucks flat rate

IF on the extremely small chance you were caught without cats you would receive a massive fine. You are removing emmission control parts which carries fines. Also, IF you were involved in an accident and the insurance company found out you would not be covered as you were driving a non-roadworthy car. As I say, small probability but large consequence. Given that you want a loud exhaust I am suggesting an increased probability of being pulled over.
