With the long 4th of July weekend I installed two diffusers on locals cars to start seeing how they fit on other people's vehicles. Both of them opted to keep the OEM faux diffuser above the FT-86SF by Velox diffuser and surprisingly it all fit and leveled out the same!
![]() Sohail's supercharged and custom center exit exhaust FR-S. We had to make a small cut on the opening spot due to how his muffler sat, and a small cut on the diff covers because of how the tubing was ran. To make these cuts I used sheet metal shears from Harbor Freight I bought multiple years ago. It cuts through the aluminum like butter. ![]() Aaron's twin turbo FR-S with Greddy Evo3 exhaust. On the leading edge of the diffuser, their is a turned up lip. This lip was rubbing on the exhaust when we did the initial fitment, maybe 1" length on both passenger and driver side. We trimmed this off and everything else fit without issue. The other option would have been to bend the lip slightly more forward to clear the exhaust which could have been done easily as well. We will make a revision for the next batch to accommodate this even though it was very minor. We want to know how to make them better, so never hesitate to let us know how they fit, questions, concerns, etc . So far we're pretty happy with how they are turning out and look on the cars I've helped install them on .

Yea, pretty interesting. I love the build, it isn't something I would do myself but the ingenuity behind it, the overall bad-assery, and the uniqueness definitely are super cool. The Arizona crowd is very unique; it's pretty cool seeing the wide variety out here.

Would this diffuser fit the TRD dual exhaust? It's so good looking but I'm worried I'd ruin it on a canyon drive due to how the road can be sometimes.
*EDIT* I checked the site. It does fit the TRD Dual! |
