I've had one of the varex 3" twin tipped models on my R34 GTT for about 6 months now. Never had any issues and have been extremely happy with it!! I had a 3" stainless exhaust and split dump pipe put on at the same time, and honestly, I doubt the loudness is illegal even when it's fully open. It is a good muffler but nowhere near as loud as a cannon.

But that's exactly what I like about it - still a nice flowing straight through muffler with an awesome note, and you can shut it up at a press of a button. In my case I think it's actually quieter than stock with the valve closed! I've been meaning to get a video of it in action but never got around to it.

i have it on my skyline

open = 110db

closed = 85 db

so yeah helpful

saved me from problems when getting pulled over or followed

and with it being closed, theres a bypass so its pretty safe to drive closed

the remote works by it moves for as long as u hold the button the the exhasut closed, so its not set to intervals but rather as long as u press it

I have a 3.5 inch Xforce exhaust on my R32 gtr do you think if i got this fitted which are only 3inch to replace my cannon there would be a power restriction in anyway as my exhaust pipes flow from 3.5 then at the rear go down to 3inch. Getting car tuned in 2 weeks so i need to figure this out quickly.

Cheers.

thought these were deemed illegal already - anycar that didn't come with these from factory can't have them or something like that

plenty of cops seen my car and the exhaust neva mentioned that its illegal so...who knows technically we r doin the right thing by being quiet on streets and noisy on track/freeways so

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.

      As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
