I agree with you there, It does start to get a bit pricy, by the time you throw on HPC coating and then have to get them fitted.

But hey, at least it isnt as much as the turbo guys have to pay for a better manifold and dump pipe, and as you can see from my dyno graph, they did make a fairly nice increase and made the engine sound nicer.

If you are serious about getting more power out of your NA, you cant go past the exhaust system.

Plus you might as well do it first and have it sounding so nice while you drive around.

Just an update on my system,

I got a hot dog put on today, as even tho that car sounded bloody fantstic, it was a bit much all the time.

So now it still sounds fantastic, but I can also live with it as my daily.

it still needs all 6 cylinders to get a correct reading, on a skyline it isnt to costly but on the xr6 it wouldnt even idle correctly (like the afm was blocked) then moved O2 sensor and it was ok :P

dont worry i will have a dyno on here soon after i get money because the thing that rhymes with smishsmorson is happening on thrusday and ill have money 2 weeks after that that i can spend on that :P

  • 2 weeks later...

hey guys its the Hesh here. Yes we went ahead with the uk coby group buy. took ages as i had to go off for an unplanned 4 month holiday in saddams old back yard.

anyhoo toolman, myself and two others on so.com purchased the coby d12s. cost finally to us was 216gbp a set all done including vat and handling charge in the country so not at all bad.

i hope to fit mine tomorow. interesting to read some of the coments on here regarding exhaust size. i recently had a mate whos handy with a welder do a bit of an experiment. he took a 3inch system from a 32 gtr welded a tube in the middle section behind the cat 9mins a 334door so a tad longer) and stuck on a trust end can .......man that was LOUD...but car was flat as apancake..drove it round for week like that then went back and he made a 3inch to 2.5 reducer and we fitted a twin exit calsonic back box from the shop floor.

revs up much better! so with the cobys bolted up tomorow i am really looking forward to seeing how she does...

    • Yeh... literally every time i jump on a forum, see an instagram post or see an engine bay at a car show, i get an idea and add it to my 'to do' list. So what started off as, hey can u just make a couple of intake hard pipes because my dumbass bought the wrong apexi kit, blew out into a 2 week job including braided brake lines & custom bash kit for the front lip haha.  Getting Luke from A4E engineering to make a full custom exhaust with a controllable aes dump valve so i can actually switch between quiet and loud, because right now its just loud all day every day. Then after that go and get the tune redone flex e85 & 98 as i get bugger all milage from e85, makes going for longer drivers difficult
    • Car looks clean as. You ended up getting quite a bit done 😂  So what's the plan for the exhaust? 
    • The only Neo rods that were any different to any other RB25 rods were the DET ones, and they were the same as RB26. Here is a Neo DET rod. O5U part number visible. Here is a post in a thread here on SAU with evidence from someone who has done this before. There are photos in the thread of normal RB25 rods.  
    • Sure, but why assume that will be the case forever? And why assume you'll be able to do an oil change to swap back to a stock drain bolt before that happens? And does it even matter when I change the oil at fairly short intervals? Life can be funny sometimes and unexpected things can happen. Like breaking a collarbone so you can't do any work on your car for a few months but the oil change is due so you have to take it to somewhere and hope they don't do something stupid like stacking the new drain plug washer on top of the old one.
    • Do u know how to identify the rods are rb25 or neo ones? Can u look into the pics and tell me is they de or de neo ones. Its confusing becoz my motor has de neo head but block is 25de 75t, so really confusing me about rods, crank.
