Have a look at a Blitz Nur Spec RX or a Whifbitz twin box exhaust.

TwinturbJay Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 they are still louder than i hoped!! is it really not possible to get the power up a bit without waking the neighbers up when i come home late? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 You could decat it and keep the stock cat back exhaust, but I'm not sure how loud it would be and also how much of a restriction it'd be. I guess if it holds the boost ~1 bar (you'll need a boost gauge to keep an eye on it) then you could just add a boost controller to get it up to 1.2bar (about 400bhp).

spikedjack Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 The nur spec RX is quiet in the car, but my god its loud from a distance on 2nd turbo boost! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinturbJay Posted October 4, 2011 Author Share Posted October 4, 2011 i like the way your talking josh, making it sound possible lol. i dont mind if it dont get full power. just dont want anything to overheat or not work properly. i really need to find a good garage to talk about it with!

I'd stick to talking about it on here tbh, as it's free and you'd probably get a lot of help from a lot of experienced people. Either way, the Supra's all about noise, unless you're old or want to get on track days My vote goes on the Blitz Nur Spec R (as per my car). Best sounding exhaust IMO.

Monkpower Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 If your interested in a Blitz Nur spec rx, i've got one in my garage which I need to sell sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Just get a decent exhaust with a removable baffle. My RS-R has a baffle, never put it in yet though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I'd get a full suspension geometry check done before you start going bpu and i'd also have a good look at the condition of quite a few parts unless ofcourse they've been replaced by previous owner. What mileage has it done ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What mileage has it done ? As Dunk said have a check over the car before going for more power. Things such as radiator, intercooler and the turbo pipe work if it has not been changed already as the pipes degrade over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 The list is endless and all depends on the cars history as to whats been done already. Brake caliper seals would be the first thing i'd look at, if they've not been replaced then they really should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimwire Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Tanabe touring medallion is also a quiet exhaust to consider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Tanabe touring medallion is also a quiet exhaust to consider. +1 I have one of these in my car. Very quiet around town, but great at full chat. All around, a great exhaust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
