For anybody wanting to try a twin rear setup, here is one i knocked up yesterday.

So, in this example, im keeping the centre muffler, adding a new flange about 200mm behind that muffler, and bolting this onto it.

First thing was to replicate the original bumper cutout to the drivers side.

Its all 2.5" parts... flange, single to dual collector, all 2.5" mandrel bent tube, a dual 3" tip on each side.

under the car, it clears the breather canister but require removal of the other part that vents into the chassis and rerouting of the pipe that fed it.

Noise level with this setup is a bit too much in my opinion, but my partner says its ok. i find it drones too much between 1500-2000rpm. A bit like a didgeridoo.

but anyway, i just made it as a trial... will try adding a 12" long glasspack resonator before each tip later. will need to relocate that canister first tho.

total including welding wire was $300

id rather just draw up a plan of it than fabricate another hahaha

oh hahaha yep thatd annoy me too if it was visible..!

OK so now an update for this setup

it was too loud (for me) from 1500-2000rpm so ive added a pair of glasspack resonators. They are a centre muffler from an EF falcon, $45 each brand new, 2.25" bore, i had the ends put on a swage and expanded so they slip over a 2.5" pipe.

the result is... no more drone! Its louder than the standard muffler but quieter than the first design. i'd describe the sound as somewhere between VN commodore and BMW E46 M3.... an odd comparison, i know. unfortunately it has lost most of that VQ burble that you heard in the first video... changing the resonators for hotdogs might fix that..... or of course changing the main centre muffler...

the clearance issue with the vapour canister.... just need to install a shield rather than relocate it. the pipe running down the right side used to connect to the breather which i have deleted for now but will relocate elsewhere. There is at least 200mm of air gap above the resonators, nowhere near the fuel lines that feed the canister

being a 250gt, id say its minimal, if anything at all.... with just straight pipes it broke into wheelspin much easier, but i doubt it was from a huge power increase.

the one thing i have noticed with both setups is a definite point in the rev range where the exhaust note seems to clash with something... its not a horrible noise, just sounds like 2 different notes at once...

still havent installed the plenum spacer either... but ive heard a rumour about a different plenum that has bigger gains which i'll do some research on.

no noise when driving normally, nice note under acceleration

and yes all within local speed limits

    • Maybe I also should have wrote that a bit better lol. I did come 8th last in English at school during the HSC, ironically spent 2 decades reading/writing specifications and contracts in IT 😂
    • Right, but that's in-cylinder, there's the interaction between that and the TWC which complicates things. Pulling out timing to reduce NOx is a strategy I saw in transitional emissions vehicles like stuff from 1974 or so. The two inlet runner system is interesting but I'm not sure it makes a huge difference as far as emissions goes, is it a tumble valve? I've seen stuff like that even in cars from the late 80s. 
    • Hello all,   so i recently swapped out my rb20de neo with an rb25de neo( engine,transmission, wiring and the diff everything) but i just cant get the gear indication light on the dash to work when i switch to tiptronic mode. Note there is a steering wheel switch beside the shifter and i dont have that. I did notice yesterday while switching to tiptronic that the indicator on the dash started to work but it didn't afterwards. Does anyone know how this actually works? Or do i still need that steering wheel switch to be connected and on for that gear indicator to work?
    • Hence why I said earlier that I don't think the turbo Neos ever would have actually qualified as an LEV. I suspect the only actual LEVs that came out of Nissan were the NA Neos. Still call them all Neos. They all stil have the Neo-ness. Just that they don't all qualify as as LEVs.
    • It will give gains, but you wont hit 600 It will give gains but it wont get you to 600 imo. You will also sacrifice low down and you will be adding extra volume if you port match it, more so if you port the plenum runners depending and how its done I think the only time youre going to see about 100hp gains is if the car is making well over 1k kw I do have a spare set that I was going to test with, but i dont actually think there is anything worth getting going larger. I did a fair few S14/S15 and the standard TB is fairly small, I went to 60 and in some cases 64mm which is significant over the stock unit. You can also get some weird ratio changes. I think 20kw will be a stretch on a roller dyno. If I had it apart I might mill the shafts a little and not expect much, I think the stock size is still pretty good for a street/track car even with larger capacity. I might change diameter it if its a drag only car
