Daston Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Hey guys Sorting out the finishing touches to the exterior of my car. I have a full border racing type 2 kit going on. Plus I am going to get clear indicators, facelift rear lights, Abflug front lights and move the aerial and fit it inside the rear screen rubber. The only thing I cant think of is the exhaust. I know that JDM cars all have the single pipe, however all the later cars seem to be moving away from the trend (MX5, GTR, 350Z, Evo X and Scooby) so was thinking of either, keep it how it is and put a Boost logic 5" pipe on there, go for dual exit exhaust, single large exit or multi pipe exit exhaust in the centre (like lambo, exige etc) or go for a side exit that comes out the skirt by the drivers sidepod. The only downside I see to this is the pipe would have to be quite small (maybe 2.5-3" max) this of course is going to increase back pressure. Would this effect a BPU car at all or a small single? Or would a boost controller fix it? Your thoughts as always are welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 i think someone looked into getting 2 pipes at the back (one each side) I think it means doing osmething like removing the spare wheel to get the space. And its very expensive. I could be wrong tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 I had a quote a while back for £1400 for a dual exit system didnt think it was that bad. Prepared to go up to £2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I have seen a dual exit on a supra before, an american car, the exhaust was so low to the ground to clear the fuel tank it must have caught on the road a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merckx Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 If I wanted to do something radical with the exhaust it would be the twin rear pipes, one on each side if the car. I can't find the pic but it does look impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian W Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 multi pipe exit exhaust in the centre (like lambo, exige etc) *pictures chav saxo with multiple exhausts* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p111ddy Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c338/jamie450x/twinpipe.jpg Those pipes do seem very low:blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xeno Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I can never make my mind up if this is a photoshop or not... It photoshop. The real exhaust is on the left. Look carefully at the one on the right. You can see road where there shouldn't be any, and you can see the edges and corners where they cropped from the left.

Gazboy Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Iirc you can't have side-exits as a chassis rail gets in the way. Is there space between the bumper and the fuel tank to mount a box like this (forget the pipes for a moment) http://www.lascuderiarossa.com/images/330_308_tubistyle.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 Think the fuel tank would have to be modded to fit the silencer in, why what you thinking buddy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
