X-force Exhaust System

[mad082]

over 90db. about 94 i think. i'm pretty sure its on the x-force website.

[mad082]

i know i saw it somewhere. i will sus it out and let you know. the only skyline i've heard that wouldn't be over the db rating would be my mates. it has a 3" jasma with the double muffler. it has a center resonater and the rear muffler is an oval muffler. it goes into the muffler as 1 pipe, then in the muffler it splits into 2 pipes then comes back out as one. basically like an overtaking line on a road but with a wall down the center.

mines pretty quiet...

Neighbours dont have to much of an issue with it

JustJap/Steve,

Can I get an idea of how many dB the full turbo back xforce exhaust is? Have you guys done any tests on ones you've installed??

Anyone actually - wondering whether it'd still be "legal" - 90dB (i believe) in NSW..

Cheers guys..

If anyone has the details on it that would be great.. anyone had an sound tests done..

if I get it replaced i'll keep my stock one in case of getting defected

[mad082]

might go get one done on the weekend. father in law works at an exhaust shop. will do a test with silencer in and out. i have split dump, 3" front pipe and cat, 3.5" x-force cat back and muffler is 3" x-force cannon. still has center muffler. i know it is supposed to be legal but i really doubt it. my father in law's falcon has a standard 2.5" sports system with both mufflers and it is quieter than mine and his is on the limit. but the only way to properly test is to do it the ADR way. it is as follows-

cones are placed at a predetermined distance, with a vehicle being accelerated through them at full throttle in a certain gear (usually 3rd). the peak db reading from the meter (a predetermined distance away) is recorded. runs in both directions are done, and a radar gun is used to ensure entry speed is around 55kmh.

a stock xr6 turbo is 87db, and a stock xr6t with just the center muffler removed, but stock piping size only just comes under at 89db.

mine on the other hand would be

What we need is a SAU dB meter, or maybe someone has it. Bring it to a cruise and get us to all drive and test each others dB's.

I was told its 1db below the legal limit (roy @ autoxcess)

[dezz]

anyone who wants an R33 3" tanabe cat back thats under the limit, you can buy mine

[eMsta]

Ok guys, I have come to a conclusion about the exhaust (after doing some really exhausting research! ).

I have decided to stick with BATMBL r33 split dump/front pipe (s/steel) and the CATCO 3 inch large Cat - about $620. And for the Cat back I have decided to go with the APEX-I Bomber from BT-Revolution - about 750. (havent put the orders in yet though).

Total comes to about $1370 before fitting.

What do y'all think about this? Good combination?

[tuyen]

very good combo.. u will be happy

BATMBL dump/front pipes and cats are very high quality and allow for max flow!

I'll be getting a new xforce 3.5" turbo back exhaust with 4.5" tip for $1100 fitted. I was told that it will do about 92Db's. Anyways i'll post up a vid when i get it done.

[JeeTeeEss25Tee]

Fark thats cheap! 3" system used to be at that price last year Which shop is it if you dont mind telling.

[jonjon]

I'm getting it done at carline mufflers mt druitt. They are a sponsor of the team i am a member of and hence the discount.

But i'm sure if you go to his workshop you can arrange a good price with the owner (Bruno)

[mad082]

i paid $400 for 3.5" cat back at mates rates. but that was still above cost by a bit. and that the price for the 3". ordered a 3" and got 3.5" at same price.

i have seen the x-force cat back systems on ebay for i think it was $599 for 3" and $699 for 3.5"........or it was $499 and $599....either way there was $100 difference.

im gettin my exhaust from exhaust technology in SA and they are freighting it up to me. (in western syd)

3" straight thru from turbo back with highflow cat (removable) with straight thru pipe to Apexi manual ECV to dual 3" tip.

turbo> 3" dump/front -> removable cat/race pipe->3" pipe ->Apexi ECV-> Dual 3" tip

think its $1400 to my door.. ill heatwrap it then install it myself in about 30 mins

So has anyone had a chance to test the dB of them? still interested..

[LiQuid IcE]

when x-force advertises that theyr exhausts are: "below 90db" or whatever the legal limit is... that is measured with the silencer on I'm pretty sure. It's over the limi without the silencer.

Still good value for money exhaust though! Thats what I'm getting.

[Mr. Oizo]

the silencer on the xforce barely does anything

i tested it on and off, and i couldnt feel a difference
