Choosing The Right Exhaust

[cartwright06]

Hey im just wondering what turbo back exhaust should i go for, for my r34 gtt? Someone said buy a cat back, then get from the turbo until cat custom made for cheaper? im asking this coz i just bought a fmic, and i dont wanna put it in until i get the exhaust. Also after ive put the front mount in, and the exhuast is on should i get it dynoed??

Cheers Heaps!!

I would recommend you get the exhaust from CES Racing. They are fully Australian made and shipped all over the world Fully bolt on. Also the guy the came up with this twin dump pipe design so to increase flow by putting the waste gate in separate and boy does it work and the wastgate sound is perfect and legal unlike those stupid screamer crap.

I bought mine from Trevor and was the best upgrade and sound. Better the any china junk and will kick most big name brands.

Specs:

3" NISSAN R34 GTT

$1850 MILD STEEL BASE COST

$2250 STAINLESS STEEL UPGRADE

+ 3”TURBO TWIN DUMP PIPE- MILD STEEL (PAINTED)

+ 3” HI FLOW CATALYTIC CONVERTER FULLY FLANGED

+ 3” CENTRE SECTION WITH OVAL RESONATOR

+ 3” TWIN TIPPED POLISHED S.S. OVAL REAR MUFFLER

+ SILVER CERAMIC COATED TWIN DUMP PIPE EXTRA

+ PRICING CHOICES AVAIL. M.S. OR S.S. PIPEWORK

+ POWER PICK UP 40 KW @THE WHEELS

+ 2 DOOR & 4 DOOR MODELS

40Kw at the wheels is good power for just the exhaust and no cheap system will get this power. The system is legal db also and you can have a cannon or stock look.

Through in a K&N panel filter in you stock air box, front mount, good electric boost controller and a good dyno tune and you should see around 200 Kw at the wheels.

You are changing the way the car breathes so make sure you get the dyno tune to check air fuel and get the best out of the car with or without the boost controller.

Just my two cents, let us know what ya do and how you go.

For us to help choose the right exhaust you need to let us know your plans for the car. Will you stop at fmic and front mount? What is your budget?

The CES Racing exhaust above is certainly very good but quite pricey and I think not always necessary on stock turbo. Tell us more about your plans for the car and we can help you out.

personally i'd just be going something like a x-force full turbo back exhaust (or the just jap one, which is the same thing). at the end of the day, as far as the catback part of it is concerned there is a limit to how much difference in flow there will be between different exhausts. all that you will get from more expensive systems is a slightly quieter car as they use better mufflers. sure the more expensive systems may have slightly better cat converters and dump pipes, but they will also set you back close to $1000 more, and for that sort of money you could get a nistune installed and make up the difference in power and a fair bit more i'd say. if you are planning on going for big power down the track then you could go for the better system to start with, but then if doing that i'd go for a 3.5" system instead of a 3" system.

Hey sorry for the late reply!!

Im not doing a whole heap to it, just the basics for now, so pod filter,fmic,exhaust,boost controller and any other basic things.

I did look at a stainless steel turbo back exhaust from xforce delivered for $1400 which so far is pretty good, my budget will be roughly 5 to 6 grand so im leaning towards the xforce at the moment!

I'd love to see CES vs xforce on stock cars, i strongly recomend even just the twin dump pipe and another exhaust at least, that xforce dump pipe one will be restrictive and create turbulence.. The results speak for themselves from ces., better design = more power..

Just my two cents

p.s. don't wast your time on a pod.. You will just attract the police when they lift the bonnet and there is no gain over a K&N panel.

QUESTION: What has the car got for an exhaust at the moment. if it is cat back (like most that come to AUS) just put a twin dump pipe and highflow cat for about $700, K&N Panel and tune should see about 185kw at the wheels.
