NEED HELP ABOUT J2 enginering exhaust
 

i need a coment about J2 enginering exhaust, its that agood stuff or not. how about the sound, about the engine power please dude i need a help:thanks::thanks::thanks:

Never heard of them.

The only car related result of "j2 engineering exhaust" in google was a few ebay links.

I think he saw that cheap shit on eBay I saw earlier , no clue who they are


I-Tapatalk

a simple pipe is a simple pipe but idk why they would make it 2.75 in. it wont mate good with the stock pipes being to large of a difference.

thanks bro for all yours advice

get borla's catback on amazon for cheap. much better quality in my opinion.

Is j2 engineering the same as j2 motorsports?
I believe j2 motorsports is a vendor on here

We have no affiliation with J2 Engineering. We are though in the process of fabricating a splitter and muffler delete.

If J2motorsports ever has something new to offer, you will see it first here.

ooooohhhhhhhh

Type One Racing's R&D data showed no gains until they bumped the 2.5" to 2.75". See thread here. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...78&postcount=1

Greddy's Evo 3 and MXP's systems also use 2.75" piping so this down pipe would mate well with all three of these systems.

Seriously tempting for the frontpipe. I'm sure the welds are garbage, but that's easily remedied. Only $110. I'm not one to cheap out but wow.

someone buy this exhaust so I can hear it haha.. doesn't look to bad of a setup says stainless so it cant be to bad for a cheap ebay exhaust even for $459 header back aint bad just to try it out..maybe ill be the pioneer and test it for myself..

I may bite on the front pipe. Ill prob wait a month or so though.

does the front pipe look different to you guys ? doesn't look like the bend are the same as the others and the flanges aren't welded in the same directions. wonder if it will work with the stock exhaust etc...

Looks really tempting

only problem is with a stock setup that power is made up top at 6500 or 7k. a 2.5" system will create a broad mid range, more useable imo. i liked the graphs on dsport from the 60-63mm systems even if they didnt peak as high

Ya, you're right. The flange that mates to the mid pipe won't re-use the OEM donut gasket. You can see that it's just a standard flange and not a floating pass through flange like the other front pipes. Not sure how this will affect fitment. Anyone know what affect this would have?

Somebody guinea pig this front pipe and let us know if it fits. a pipe is a pipe so performance gains should be typical for a test pipe.

P.S. I messaged one of the ebay vendors for a company website for J2 and they gave me this site. j2race.com

Looks like they started out in aluminum rads. It's the only product on their website. Their FB, Youtube, and Twitter links are bare. But the youtube channel says the company is based in Canada. Twitter account is under the name Jason Brown.

Here's a sample of their other product lines.

Did anyone find anything else out about this system yet?:iono:

People are buying their products on ebay... hopefully one of those buyers is a forum member and can give us a review of the quality and maybe some dyno #'s. Wishful thinking at best...

interesting quad tip. The pictures they have just screams "ebay" though. LOL. In for reviews

If you guys are interested, we have these exhausts in stock:

J2 Exhaust Scion FRS/Subaru BRZ [w/ Downpipe] (2013) Quad Tips J2-CBE-003
J2 Exhaust Scion FRS/Subaru BRZ [w/ Downpipe] (2013) J2-CBE-002

If you guys have this exhaust and have a video of it, please let us know and we can put it on our site.

I heard the quad tip version on my friend's car today. I was impressed with the sound. Very deep and aggressive. It really brings out the boxer sound. I think it sounds better than my $600 Takeda system.

Do you think you could arrange to get some photos of fitment to your mates car and possible a video clip?

Still watching!

He left for ft myers today... so I wont see him till he gets back in 4 days. :/

I love the quad tip look, but wont spend money without hearing it and seeing reviews maybe numbers. Anyone heard this yet?

any updates, about to just save more for something with a dyno and sound clips, dont need a huge gain but needs to sound good and not have a loss in the power band

No exhaust ever has LOST power (on this car, so far anyway)
However I can say if you plan on turbocharging your vehicle this would be a good exhaust as its 2.75 not 2.5 so it'll flow a little better.

Once I'm turbocharged I'll probably have a custom 2.75 or 3in overpipe made and buy this exhaust and sell my current setup (Borla UEL, Agency Power over/test pipe, Q300 cat-back)

Glad to see an official vendor repping this brand. Can you tell us more about the company and the products? Any weight's on these? A little data will go a long way at peaking interest on this forum.

The front pipe doesn't have the mounting hook so it is not supported very well. Just a fyi.

I have this exhaust. Front pipe back. Sounds deep, and not much droning. It does have the hanger on the front pipe. The right side muffler doesnt sit right without bending the hangers for it.

Here's an install and 2nd video is a sound clip

Can you post a picture of how it looks from the back and at an angle? Also, is the droning very noticeable? At rpm do you notice droning?

My phone went missing last night, but I'll see what I can do. Also, it came with an assortment of hardware and gaskets that force you to go to the parts store. Just count your gaskets before you begin or you'll be borrowing a car.

I just purchased the catback and will provide some feedback in a few weeks. I didn't want to jump on the front pipe too quick since it is uncatted. This will give me the opportunity to see how loud it is with the stock front pipe. Exactly what did you have to get at the autoparts store? Just a gasket?

Yeah, 2 of them. I didnt put the front pipe on at first an needed new bolts to hold the front pipe to back pipe together. Just put the front pipe on now it is NO louder without it.

:needpics:

You have done what i will likely be doing. I am quite interested in your thoughts regarding any difference the front pipe makes in both sound quality and performance. Have you noticed any performance improvement with only the catback? Any difference now that you have the front pipe installed? Sorry for the 20 questions...

Just louder and less weight. Otherwise no different than stock. From the seat of my pants anyway. I doubt any exhaust would be much different.
