Don't go posting this stuff up on SAU. The real good gear you need to keep quiet and to yourself :) I did an exhaust with a friend years ago when I lived in Sydney and had after hours work to my old employers factory, tools etc. Their gear is top notch and I was planning on using two of their real mufflers in a twin system.

What I need to find is a centre muffler that has a 4" inlet and twin 2.5" outlet

Ha ha ha... I do keep all the 'really good gear' off the forums.

At the end of the day XXXXX will custom make anything you need. Or just buy they're packing materials and custom make your own. I actually have a XXXXX 5" mid muffler with reducers to 4" I was going to use as a 'pre' resonator. I'm now going with twin 3.5" systems.

If you want to branch off into twin 2.5".... I would go:

Large diameter, short (10/12") 4" barrel muffler, 4" to 2x 2.5" collector, twin staggred 2.5" barrel mufflers then twin rear cans of your brand choise.

but they allow open screamers, your car must be insanely loud for them to pick it up and kick you off the track.

ok i just checked the wakefield regs, it says max limit is 95dB at 30m,

they must be very lienant with this as ive seen alot of GTRS/V8/cars with open screamers go there without an issue.

95dB at 30m is /loud. That is 115dB at 3m measurement (typical measurement).

Has anyone used the Tomei Expreme Ti cat back before?

Im looking at buying one. but some people ive talked to about them has run them down.

Saying they are actually restrictive compared to other exhausts, its not a true 90mm exhaust etc

And that there are better value exhausts out there for the money.

Any one have any experiance with them?

And is it reali stupidly loud?

Don't know much about the tomie exhausts, but see if you can find a futjitsubo Ti cat back. It might be a viable alternative, although i don't know if they still make them.

Mine was super quite & super light and i couldn't find any restrictive points when i pulled it off the other day. It measured 75-80mm ID.

I have both of them the tomei ti and a twin ti , the tomei seems to flow just as well as the twin system but the tomei one is soooo loud :) but that is the reason i got it as the twin system is quite and great flow . I just swap them as i feel need for quite or loud ;)

They norm have a 3.5inch pipe that goes into the muffler, but than when u look inside the muffler there's only a 2.5inch pipe inside it. So it creates a restriction, and also they go down to like 3.1-3.2 inch at the flanges. I've also seen the cannons only have like a 2.5-2.8inch pipe inside it.

Just have a good scope around it mate with a camera and tape messure

      Do the R32s run high or low impedance injectors?

      It may not feel like it to your wallet....but sounds like this was one of those "lucky you did it" rebuilds. Hopefully you have better luck this time

      It's aftermarket. It also reeks of Honda Civic tryhard from 2003. But if you want one....then you want one.

      Well some mostly good news and some slight bad news.  Good news is cylinder 6 did in fact only require a honing and I'm good to run my 86.5mm pistons again. I should also get the block back by end of week. Bad news, had a few surprises pop up. First, main and rod bearings were trashed. No sign of any heat damage. I knew right away what caused this... I had not packed my oil pump originally and spent a lot more time than I would have liked cranking the motor to get oil pressure. It sounded fine once started so I chucked it up to luck and forgot about it. Luckily rod and crank are fine and just need new bearings. Engine builder agreed that this was the cause.    Another surprise that carbon covered up very well that I didn't catch, something got sucked up and went through cylinder 1, 2 and 3. Luckily this was no cause for concern, just needed a bit of cleaning up. Valves look fine but he will vacuum test the head this week to confirm. I'm presuming this was something left over from welding my intercooler piping, but we'll never know. I'm going to thoroughly reclean everything.    So all in all, happy the motor is fine, and I'll get it back much sooner than expected. I'll also be taking the time to convert my WMI system over to direct port. I'll snap some pictures of that when the parts come in.

      I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.
