Stock Results @ 14m25s

155HP 127TQ

Perrin Headerback Results @ 15m30s

156HP 131TQ

Ummmmmm, what?

This better do some serious boosts to the midrange, because the Perrin exhaust they installed in this video has a $900USD pricetag?

Am I missing something?

Haven't watched the vid, but I only have a cat-back. It cost me $750 second hand, they're about $1100 new and actually one of the cheaper cat-back options for this car. Made in the USA and nice quality. It would have gained a few kw, I can feel it however if I did the rest of the exhaust it'd gain a bit more. Planning to do the headers, over-pipe, mid-pipe, might need to think about adding a resonator back in as it's already boomy inside the car under any throttle at all and it'd only get louder and dronier. It had 108rwkw stock, 118rwkw with just a tune so with the cat-back added I'd expect it'd be up around ~125rwkw now. Not bad for an N/A 2.0L auto.

fyp for accuracy.

UEL and EL's move the torque band slightly, and although UEL's should lose power they actually don't on this engine. Both make around the same power gain. So realistically it depends if you're looking to eliminate the torque dip or have higher top end and what sound you're looking for. The UEL's do sound pretty hot.

So this happened today...

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
