There just one of the more popular cars to have with a cannon. I'm not singling them out as there my favorite car. What my question was asking are the cannons mainly for the look or the performance?

Adding my 2cents

Older Commodores and Falcons that the young are buying (cos cheap and pov) are putting the Milo tin on also. Looks funny as

They're also keen on the BOV flutter and putting these on 6cyl N/A's. I don't know how it works but that's what is happening - for da lulz

By far the most popular combo of car+cannon is the Lancer, not Skyline.

Given that 95% of skylines (and 180sx and s13, 14 and 15 have canons, I'd have to disagree. I'd say that it's easier to convince a lancer driver to not put a canon on than it is to convince a skyline owner to not put a canon on. Cause canons are jdm......

But as others have said, no performance gains from having a canon over a straight through oval muffler.

Varex do a twin pipe from muffler. Just an alternative

Have one of these on mine with just a high flow cat and no other mufflers. Even with it open is not really that loud would prefer it louder. With it closed its really quiet, but is down on a lot of power.

An rb25 and 26 and the jz motors are probably then only motors that do justice to a cannon.

Ive seen more lancers where I live with cannon exhausts than skylines. They also have jdm stickers.

Ive noticed little to no difference between my hks exhaust and my nismo big oval muffler exhaust. But the sound of the hks is truly something to lo and behold. I think the worst cars to have a cannon are your hondas. They sound like absolute shit. I honestly put my windows up when driving near one.

    • Shove more foam in it as a minimum if you possibly can. Or steel wool (not the stuff with soap on it!) Baffles / getting the oil out of the air is huge, and should be done at both the cam cover, and the catch can.   I'm about to do a power steering reservoir, and even that needs some thought to make sure air is separated from the oil, to stop evil Cavitation. I'll probably look at doing my own catchcan later on too.
    • I was once told, who it was I'm to old to remember, that the length of the OEM wheels brace supplied with a vehicle is designed long enough for a average person to apply enough torque to do up, and undo the wheel nuts to the specified torque  What a average person is is anyone's guess though, i.e. average fat bastard, average knuckle head, average perfect sized human......like me Unless of course, a tyre shop has ugga dugga'd them up to "torque to yeild/strip" specs, used cross threading as natures lock tight, or a big breaker bar was used to tighten them up to get some nice stretch in the poor old wheel studs Me, I torque wheel nuts to 1 elbow joint click, lower torque settings are based of wrist clicks, higher torque settings are based of shoulder clunks, or total dislocation for anything that requires all of the torques 
    • I think the catch can design is pretty flawed. Evident in the fact that the V2 one moved to a larger top mounted filter which alone would have helped with overflow and reduce restrictions compared with the side filter. I also imagine there was a major improvement to the baffling design. It is worth mentioning that this catch can with the RB20 was never as much of an issue and the high kms RB25 is likely a part of the problem. I have gotten quotes for both a new "Vibrant Gen 3" catch can and to modify this existing ones but that may have to wait until after the track day. I hope the sump/head breathers/drains and cam splash plates will be enough
    • Yep, both. The ratio is 1.8 instead of OEM being 1.7. The rocker bodies are modified with a larger bolt hole and re-threaded with 10mm holes instead of the 8mm YT has stock. Finding out they don't actually fit the stock castings cause a lot of un-impressment by the person in the USA who tapped the new holes for the 'upgraded' YT product. He was very unhappy with them given their previous design did not require 'clearancing'
    • That too, but I think this is why she's put the work into the cam cover baffles. I mean, a catch can should only need to be a catch can, not an oil air separator also. Not to say that putting the effort into having it do a better job of oil-air sep is a waste of time, but doing the sep earlier is always going to make life better. And that should happen now anyway.
