silencers are BAD!

Thats the idea

[s13ofdoom]

what are some quite and cheaper exhausts?

[Onizuka]

i dunno, i only like to waste my money on shiny expensive things

hey jspec,

ahhh... you want the quiet one... not the GTII

you should check out http://www.modacar.com/product...CAB/. They have the RSR ExMag for the s13 for $495. No tax for you either!

Thanks for the link bean!

[mrbean]

NP. I would have gotten it myself, but with tax, it just wasn't as good a deal...

So umm to get back on topic, I have the RSR ExMag GTII with 80mm piping in preparations for turbo later. I'm reducing the ill effects of running larger pipes on an NA car by using the silencer, right? Or am I mistaken?

I notice maybe a tiny loss of low end torque, but faster acceleration above 3500 rpms. Does that sound about right, or is my butt dyno playing tricks on me again?

[Onizuka]

it was the same with me when i had apexi dual N1's with my KA.

You are correct. An NA setup runs better with some back pressure.

i got the apexi gt spec exhaust.... it's 3.75 inches... it fit great... it looks sweet.... it's loud.... and i wouldn't trade it for any other....
