single exit exhaust

[jdmblood]

anyone on here buy a speedfactory v2 exhaust? looking at purchasing one but would like to hear reviews before i do...difference between resonated and non resonated? i also liked the tomei single exit but they were too expensive. if you know of any other good quality single exit dont be afraid to point em out...

Buddy Club makes one. It's pretty light. That's all I know about it.

Lightest Exhaust, Headers, and Front/Over/Mid Pipes?

[Anthony]

Oh, and the Tanabe Concept G.

Look up FT86Speedfactory.com

You'll see many exhaust systems you can pinpoint which want you want; they also have a youtube page; check them out, it shows plenty of exhaust systems as well to help you get a better feel of what you like. Type FT86Speedfactory on youtube search.

Tomei Ti!!!! it's a little more expensive, but I think it's worth it

Agreed. After seriously considering the Amuse equivalent ($3,600 + shipping) for about a week, the Tomei actually seems dirt cheap to me now. Even though the Tomei is about 2.7lbs heavier (I'm counting front pipes + catbacks) I could take the difference and buy headers and a tune.

Pretty sure I'm going the 60R route now.

Yeah, I'm probably going with 60S, although I keep looking at the 80R.... I'm not gonna jump into this one though. Not just yet until some reviews are in. I already have an Invidia N1. I just like single exit exhaust. I could always unbolt one of the N1 mufflers and run a block off plate on one side. I'm also looking at ways to build something to fill in the hole for the "missing" muffler on one side. I thought maybe aluminum. But I'm also thinking lexan and/or kydex. I dunno, we'll see.

Don't forget about the EVS single exit exhaust. That one looks nice as well.

[Anthony]

Yes, if you go single exit, the rear bumper and "diffuser" becomes a parachute. The factory muffler serves as an actual diffuser. I plan on doing my own diffuser too. Hopefully I can come up with something really good and can make some more for other forum members. I've already got a rough design in my head, just need to get out of this damn desert and back home so I can get to work.

That's enough to warrant a build thread, sir. I just looked at your "started threads" and didn't see one. I know there's a lot of people curious about how 80mm will do on an NA setup. Or maybe you're boosting?

If you're NA, I'd definitely like to see some before and after dyno charts, if possible, and know what else you're running aspiration and tuning wise.

I'm running NA and planning to stay NA. I want the 80mm mainly because of the look, and for my past NA car, I don't feel the lost of 3" exhaust, also after seeing people use 3" perrin exhaust and they loved it, that's why I ordered.
I will see if i can get a dyno after the exhaust is installed. for the tuning wise, I will have to wait for better header to come out before getting a tune, so could be long wait.

[Anthony]

Yeah, I don't think intake and exhaust mods yield very much without a tune anyway. Stock headers and a stock tune should definitely be the ultimate determining factor if 80mm is a good idea or not though.

I'm going FI soon with the full blown kit. I'm going to use the 80mm Tomei exhaust.

My tuner is going to tune my bone-stock car, and then also tune the car with the Tomei exhaust, just to see the gains from a tune and exhaust only.

Then, the full turbo kit will go on.

I'll post of the dyno results in a week or 2 when everything comes in.

Awesome. I'll be looking forward to this!
