Anyone know how well the fitment is on the S14 chassis? Anyone ran it with the SR20DET? Just wondering how it would sound, and if you were able to get it resonator-less for the sake of less backpressure through the pipe.

thanks for any of the help, I like the way it exits the car a lot, but figured I'd get some other opinions.

Its stupid loud an anything N/A, but on sr20 or pretty much anything turbo, even hondas it sounds the shex :gapteeth: Also fitment is fine on all the S14s I've seen with it, and it doesn't seem to sit too low.

Buddy has one on his S14 and it sounds nice. Nice deep tone and deep rumble when he down shifts

Thanks for the input guys, the exhaust itself looks so simple, but really shows its true race style build.

I guess only thing I'm worried about is that resonator creating any unwanted backpressure. . .

The back pressure created from a resonator is minimal and not noticable

It sounds wonderful and fitment is superb, it is also way louder on my sr that it was on the ka that use to chug my car around, but there was still a cat on it then.

Here is a vid of my car on a dyno, quality isn't that great but you get the idea.

Edit: Resonators are a good thing, they smooth the tone of the exhaust and help cut down on the rasp with out an easily measurable loss of power.

Wow, that dyno pull just won me over.

No rasp at any RPM, it kept its low tone without sounding like a V8. Very impressive!

Keep in mind that I also replaced the factory cat with a resonated test pipe, and have a much larger than stock turbo.
