I was wondering if anyone got custom B pipe an Y pipe custom made for there axleback an kept same bolt pattern?

Did you feel any major different?

I'm thinking of doing 2.5" from the cat back to the exhaust bolt on point. Here the deal the exhaust shop said to get better gain with 2.5" I going have cut part of Comptech exhaust, so they can weld 2.5" pipe into it. Comptech axleback are only has 2" openning.


Should I cut axleback or just forget it.

i cut mine...no biggie.. im from jersey so the weather corroded the shyt out of my bolts..i had no choice... but whats the point of expanded to go smaller again... if the inlet to the mufflers were same size i would understand..

fsttyms1

Yes, many do. This is what i did to mine


Just in the mockup stage. It all needs to be finished welded, its only tack welded here






What it looks like on the car. I got the comptechs to sit a little further out and alot more even than with the factory pipe.

Hidden Hitch is not very hidden...

Its designed to work with the body kit. With it on its much more hidden.

is this what u did with all those part that u kept a secret for a while... i didnt follow that thread... but it does remind me of it...

also what is the canister that goes from one to two.... resonator?...

the car lifted up must look sick from under... dope custom job fast... i wish i had the knowledge for it...

fsttyms1

That was part of it. the other part was a crank that has been lightened and knife edged. That is a in 1 out 2 muffler (i used as my Y).

He has an account on YouTube with the same name. I've seen his video labelled "loud pipes" or something like that. Yea, it's pretty loud.

fsttyms1

That isnt the video of this setup.

fsttyms1

not really. There is the video of my lapping day inside the car and one being chased by the camera car where you can kind of hear it. Never made one with the camera out side. Never liked those vids because they really dont show/capture the sound well just sitting there reving it.

Wow your car handles great for a TL-P. Not body roll or anything. Whatever you did well done. If you didnt do much it just shows how well Honda/Acura can make FWD cars.

fsttyms1

They actually handle well to begin with, but i put Koni shocks, H&R sport springs, and Eibach sways for suspension. (im trying to find polyurethane bushings for the suspension.

Thk for pic Kris,

That what I was looking for. I just couldn't find it. I will be going to exhaust shop right I get my rear bumper back from paint shop.

After I get it done I will post pic

When the new motor goes in im going to run a true dual. Im going to make a new lower header pipe that doesnt merge into 1 and get rid of the in one out 2 muffler and get a X pipe (to help equalize the 2 banks). There is enough room for it. I just need to get 2 magnaflow 18 to 22" round mufflers to help combat the drone for that setup.

i was thinking that too, before i tried my setup. im interested to see if it will be done...

have you thought about using that resonated X-pipe that magnaflow sells?

fsttyms1

Its not going to be enough. The muffler i am using now for the Y isnt enough.

Zomg, that sounds cool! What are you gonna do about Cat and O2 sensor? Just ignore it, and rock a CEL?

Or do something creative at the X-pipe?

def dope...do you get any gains?.. or is it just for looks?.. doesnt too much air going out than its suppose to, negatively affect it..

doesnt the tl-p n tl-s have the same suspension system?...

fsttyms1

Im not running a cat now Though i dont like the smell of the exhaust without it. Spark plug defouler eliminates the the 02 light.

fsttyms1

Im sure there will be gains. Especially considering the motor will be a 3.6. The more air we can get out of this motor the more can go in. Ill be running a 75-80mm throttle body from a mustang, i will get more than enough air in.

yes, pretty much same. But im not running stock suspension any more.

3.6 ... nice... i always though you lose when too much come out..because i feel less power when the flex pipe has a hole... ive replaced 3 in my lifetime and felt it better after fixing it.. is it mental?... so open pipe is best?... horrible sound tho ..
