jakewebster Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Done some searches for pics satandard TT exhausts with no luck! Can someone tell me if this is a stock exhaust, car came from japan so i wasnt sure. It still has the cats in but not sure if its stock! Havnt been underneath a supra apart from my own and there aint many up here in deepest darkest Scotland for me to look at! Also excuse how dirty it is, it looks rusty but just needs a good scrub up!

Daston Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 dosnt look stock the way to tell is the stock pipe splits onto 2 pipes from the second cat onwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPRALOOPY Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 looks like a different back box to me?? thats it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakewebster Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 Oh!! I was expecting a unanimous "YES YOU IDIOT IST STOCK"! Anyone recognise it or tell me what it is? Am i right in saying both cats are there? Not looked awful hard tbh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieSteve Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Hard to say from picture 4 but I'd say the cat is there. Looks like a custom exhaust to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr lover Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 both cats are there, it is an after market cat back exhaust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakewebster Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 It also has a baffle type thing in the backbox, bit like thick steel wool or metal shavings/swarf! *now very confused* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Pull it out and grin. [edit] Fnnnnarrr! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakewebster Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 You recon the cat back system would be suitable for going BPU? Im learning lots tonight!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Don't see why not. Get that crap out of it first though. It needs to flow free. (and louder!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakewebster Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 Away to pull it out now! Standby........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakewebster Posted March 26, 2007 Author Share Posted March 26, 2007 Ok just spent over an hour with my hand up my exhaust heaving this stuff out- Any thoughts? Is it just to keep it quiet? There is only a small difference with it out!! Where the rear tip pipe goes into the backbox the tip pipe sortof overhangs into the backbox and is a bit jagged, is this normal? The system itself seems really well put together! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gzaerojon Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Dam dude, that's the biggest handful of pubes I've ever seen I'm sure it's just to drown out the noise though, you'll notice an improvement when you got bpu as you will need to replace the cats with decat pipes, and the cats act as a silencer too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Why DOES it split in two and then rejoin? What was the point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 think it was silencing was the main reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieSteve Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Why DOES it split in two and then rejoin? What was the point? My Veilside exhaust does the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakewebster Posted March 26, 2007 Author Share Posted March 26, 2007 So just the decat pipes and a restrictor ring is all i need on the exhaust side to go bpu? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
