WORKS Resonated AB and Drop in filter
 
2 Attachment(s)
I got an email from Pete from WORKS and they just got their Resonated AB (R-AB) muffler delete and their Drop-in filter.. They will have one of the R-AB installed this weekend so that they can get a dyno result plus video/sound clip for everyone can check out. The R-AB has a resonated pipe with resonated tips to minimize the drone in the cabin. These parts will be available this weekend while he is dyno tuning.



*They may have the WORKS Mid-Pipe (MP) and Axle Back Muffler (ABM) available but not sure if it will be available this saturday.*


R-AB is $349 but special intro price is $299

We've already dyno'd the drop in and got with on stock flash
+10+ HP @ 7000 RPM
+7+ TQ @ 6400 RPM

They've used the same technology from their EVO X filters and made it available for the FRS/BRZ. On the EVO X this filter made 18+hp and 13+tq, they used the way it was constructed with multilayer 100% cotton fabric (not gauze) in stainless steel mesh reinforcement (not mild steel or aluminum). I cant copy and post the dyno results from their website but that was my car bone stock running on 76's 91 oct with the TSB chirping issue.

Drop in filter: $89 intro price is $79

No, the airflow on the left tip isnt direct so it will just get the bleed off of passing airflow

If you wanna check the dyno result on their page here is the link.

He dyno'd an FRS with an Injen intake with no HP gain, then used this filter and that was the result.

They are 76mm (3inch) tips and they can be bought through WORKS. Contact WORKS and look for Pete who is the owner and tell him that Mike from the FT86club sent you... :thumbsup:

Just got back from WORKS and got the R-AB installed.

First impression: Its looks so nice, the welds are clean and tips are perfect. Its very light and when we got it installed it fits perfect on the car, no issues with clearance. For the price you get more than what you pay for.
When we started the car up it sounded exactly like an EVO, not a 240sx or a civic but an EVO it has a VERY VERY deep throaty sound but not like a V8.

Driving impression
: NO drone what so ever, at 70 mph you will hear wind noise than the exhaust but when you punch it you will get the deep tone.

*Sorry the car is dirty from the rain*

Very tempting. Now that I like it I'm a little more miffed that they blew me off though.

mechaghost 11-03-2012 10:43 PM
