Official "custom" exhaust thread, for all engines Options

yeah i wanted it to have more of an upward tilt..but the guy couldnt mess w/the piping w/o charging me..it doesnt look horrible tho..i can deal w/it..plus they are both diff cars and have diff looks..if my piping were any lower it would scrape all the time..my muffler already scrapes


and yeah..its freakin gigantic..didnt think it'd be that big lol

I understand and I agree that it still looks good. What size is your piping? How do you like the muffler? It's one I always recommend.

Cool cool. Do you have a video camera so you can get a sound clip for us? And do you have a cat, resonator, none of the above? Tell us more about the piping setup.

nah i dont have a camera out at school with me. It does have a cat but no resonater, thats basically about it, if i ever get a chance i'll get a video tho

[GotToyota]

Sounds nice. If you stumble around a video camera take a vid for us!

well my car hasnt had stock exhaust in probably about 5 years lol..but i dont remember it ever being loud..this is definitely a lot louder than stock, i'd have to get a vid to show its too hard to explain with just words lol

[mneal2_92788]

mine is just the stock exhaust with no muffler. cut off at the rear axel. sounds good too.

[AnaXyd]

Whats the standard piping of the 7AFE engine? I am planning to buy the Megan Racing N1 muffler, but need to make sure it fits. Is 4" outlet overkill?

[GotToyota]

I believe the smallest they have is 2.5" inlet (the muffler). You will need to go to an exhaust shop to have them make a piping adapter, since I imagine the stock piping size is 2" or smaller.

Awesome. Yea i guess it is hard to explain with words. anyone got a vid of there stock 5s or 3s? Get some before and afters.

[mitchy]

does anyone know what difference to the sound of a stock exhaust and muffler these three mufflers would make?

OBX EVO : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...hlink:middle:us

OBX Apexi WS: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OBX-Apex-i-...sspagenameZWDVW

OBX SP: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...em=350106496286

or this : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...em=360090419964

would these sort of sound like a cannon/fart can/canister? I kind of like that sound but like the look of these better. or if these would sound like it actually goes fast that would be cool. which one would be the best? although i am looking at the OBX coz they are cheaper haha

EVO. I know how it sounds, and it is good.

[GotToyota]

I personally like the OBX WS. I didn't know they made those, it looks nice. I'd rather get that then a canister.

[mitchy]

can you describe the sound they make? i kinda want it to sound like a fast race car or deeper. If you saw the dual exhaust set up video in the for sale section wud any of these make it sound close to that? but i like all 3 of these :S

PS i know my car will only be stock but i want it to sound cool

Got my exhaust off ebay for $30 shipped. Tried it out after hearing a nice one on youtube. I must say, it sounds great the way it is, without the silencer. I get a lil pop when I switch gears after 1st and 2nd, but I kinda like that. Reminds me of rally cars. Anyways, I went with 2.5" piping and didn't feel any HP difference....... Until the inside blackened out and the burnt smell that was coming out of the exhaust left. Now I feel a difference. I know nothing of HP differences, but if I had to say, this feels like I gained around 10HP from it. But the car does get up a lot faster. I know my baby to the point where I can tell if pressure in my tires is lost from how she handles and accelerates. So yes, there was a HP difference. I wanted to get an HKS, but I will wait until after the swap in late 2009/early 2010, where I will go with either 3" or 3.5" piping.

I like the mufflers in that style because they tend to offer a much deeper exhaust tone due to their internal baffling.

I just got my new JDM 7afe today, put in monday ! Oil pan cracked, slung a rod in the original (152,000) I have had the car since late august. Early sept. clutch had went out. Had stock clutch, and the man who i bought it froms wife had been driving it. She hit a parked car... WTF?!? Fender is got a small dent in it. Anyways to the point, I go to the local Pull A Part, i just go and look around often and scope for cars i'd like to buy and have a nice lil project this summer. While walking around with a friend i found a Honda Crx, ( Had Civic cut out in the hood LMAO). The car looked like crap. Anyways, while laughing at this, i glanced down and saw a Dynomax exhaust on it. Looked it up its a muffler Dynomax and Bosal got together on. Sounds really good. Wasnt too hard to find it on youtube. I'm going to go 2.25 piping, and delete the cat.

My question is
What would i do with the O2 sensors?

BTW ... 1994 St 5 speed.

My friend also had a 1994 St Auto, he cut his cat and resonator off. SOUNDED LIKE ****. His muffler was pretty cheap, and sounded crappy. He put his resonator back on, didn't sound THAT bad, still sounded like a ricer b/c of that muffler.
Yes yes, In mississippi Not having a Cat is illegal, BUT people here really don't care as long as your not doing a drive-by.


My two cents.
I agree with the anything above 2.5 pipe on a N/A, anything bigger, sound like a ricer who's about to blow the engine. I also know in most southern states a resonator isn't required, running pipe no bigger than 2.5 with factory resonator to a decent muffler to me and many others not so raspy. The resonator muffles the sound, but not all of the sound. It helps the sound volume and the sound quality. To each their own, but different people think different systems sound like complete ****. I have a friend who has a magnaflow cat, older Greddy muffler 2.25 pipe, it sounds like crap, but so does a straight pipe with no cat or res. to a muffler, its way loud. If people can hear you over a mile away in a city than yes, its way to loud.

[Akirad1]

st id say 2.25 or 2.5, and just got to your local shop and have them weld a new bung in a location similar to then og one. so it doesnt mess with the sensors positioning and stuff like that since it all programed for the way it is so it may mess with it if you move it to far from the original position. but i may be wrong

[Blk94St]

is this the obx you were talking about?

I want a deep sound, not something high pitched and rattles.
