Meh, stock dynos aren't really necessary. I'm always interested in final results mainly because even stock runs can vary. I'll hopefully get to run on the dyno a few times once I get my header on and the tune runs its cycle for a month or so. I haven't even done my first initial flash yet to send off to Toni.

I'm about to order this piece when I came across this:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nf_ycgw3r2k"]Nameless overpipe/frontpipe fitment FR-S - YouTube[/ame]

It's an install video of the op/fp not completely sealing. Browsing through this forum it seems as though no one else is having a similar issue seeing as how there are no posts condemning nameless. So to all who have it did you discover a similar issue?

Usually when that happens, it's best if one re-installs the whole exhaust system from the headers first to the op/fp/mid/axle to double check if it has any manufacturing defects. That usually will fix all the sealing issues.

I want to know how nameless will handle this.

connection between frontpipe and mid-pipe section has to be fully closed? before i removed my stock cat front pipe, i saw OEM cat front pipe and mid-pipe section had gap but donut gasket was doing it's job to seal it. i just removed stock andinstalled my motiv front pipe exactly same as stock looked. Correct me if i am wrong

The connection between midpipe and frontpipe should be the same as stock. It's normal to have a gap, this is a joint to have room for the exhaust to move a bit. It delete a little bit of stress on the exhaust.

The guy on the video doesn't look like to have any real probleme! He should try the P&L header with their overpipe to see what is a fitment issue....

Minor thread jack, but what do you think fitment would be like with the helmholtz resonator and the one piece aluminum driveshaft? Just curious if the minor change in driveshaft geometry changes anything for clearance.

Just to let you guys know.

If anyone has a revworks header and wants this pipe its tight and over larger speed bumps and dumpy road, it does hit the sub frame
