MXP Stainless Steel exhaust installed, music to my ears - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

*KID* · 11-27-2012, 11:12 PM

yea sounds nice, I thought that with the test pipe it would sound like some other ones do (fart can type) but this ones sounds beast

ngabdala · 11-27-2012, 11:22 PM

I like this. I'm especially sold since it made your friend laugh like Butthead.

The one thing I'm on the edge about is the weight. Just in case I stay NA for awhile , if I'm FI the fuck the extra weight, just not sure if/when I'm going FI.

Gonna look up price.

JoeBoxer · 11-27-2012, 11:22 PM

Thats what sold me, the MXP videos i saw had their test pipe on it so i knew it would be ok, i have the Motiv overpipe coming friday too not sure if that will effect the sound or not but we'll see.

PM Adam at No Limit Motorsport i had mine in 2 days from when he got them in and you are even closer, they are sold out right now but 5 more are coming in.

ngabdala · 11-27-2012, 11:28 PM

So who has the best deal on these !?! Lol

I'm going to need a front pipe with a cat when I switch to catless header

JoeBoxer · 11-27-2012, 11:33 PM

Yeah you should stick with a catted front pipe if you are getting a catless header. I like Motiv they have taken really good care of me and the prices are very fair for the quality you get. Nameless is a little more expensive and they are pretty much gone from the forum so for me it would be Motiv or Perrin.

check my signature these guys are my go to vendors and i haven't had a problem yet.

ngabdala · 11-27-2012, 11:36 PM

I agree with your thoughts on nameless. Love Perrin's Transparency with their products and quality. Motiv has a catted front pipe IIRC

Edit: Stock exhaust hangers?

Yep all stock, very easy to install too and everything is adjustable so you can put the tips whereever you want them. Yes Motiv offers the Test Pipe and what they call the HFC for the front pipe with cat.

ngabdala · 11-27-2012, 11:45 PM

Nice. So I have it narrowed down to this or the over-pipe back system from Super Sprint. Their system would cost me after shipping about $1821 and then I'd need to buy the front pipe with Cat. Hmmm

Damn that's expensive, i'm sure it's nice but you are more than halfway to a turbo or supercharger kit at that price.

ngabdala · 11-28-2012, 12:14 AM

Yes sir. Right now my mind is made on mxp. Please tell me these are completely made in the USA? That's a big reason I prefer mxp to the Super Sprint

Btw, can a resonator be removed from an exhaust. My concern is exhaust being too silent if I go turbo

JoeBoxer · 11-28-2012, 12:20 AM

Resonator can't be removed it's part of the midpipe, i think its made in Japan but not 100% sure.

Captain Insano · 11-28-2012, 12:25 AM

A resonator certainly can be removed by simply cutting the pipe next to resonator on both ends and welding in equal size piping. Not that I would do that, before shopping around for other piping without resonators that you could just replace the entire pipe or having an exhaust shop custom make you another pipe altogether reusing your flanges from existing pipe.
