Re:Apexi Muffler
From what I do know about turbo exhaust systems.. you need a muffler that flows very well.. Basically one "designed" for a turbo. When dealing with turbo applications, delta-pressure vs backpressure are not as important as "just get the damn gases out"! So, if it flows well, (2.5" to 3") outlet, you should be OK.

ok cool, thanx

Re:Apexi Muffler
..now when I say "outlet", I don't mean "tip". Like the big coffee cans that sound like mice farting. I'm talking about the actually channel that runs through the middle of the muffler need to be big.

Re:Apexi Muffler
Oh yea....it's the same size as the exhaust pipe, it's pretty big

Re:Apexi Muffler
I'm getting an Apexi muffler whenever I finish putting my car abck together. I ever took my car apart. I just like to take things apart I guess. I'm getting the big Apexi that is made for turbo Supra and going w/ 3" piping like my friend's Datsun powered turbo rotary. The thing is loud as hell going down the street. ;D

Re:Apexi Muffler
Speaking of mufflers...Is a turbo honda B or D series just hella noisy if you run no muffler? Or does the turbo quiet it down at all?

Re:Apexi Muffler
Actually, I would like to know about noise reduction as well.
I'm running the 5 Zigen dunk style muffler and it flows VERY well, thus, sounds like a rabid lawn mower. I'm SOOOOO wanting to get away from the rice sound. Will the use of the turbo decrease the noise while cruising at 3000rpm? |
Re:Apexi Muffler
it's not as loud compared to an N/A car...
u'd actually notice the difference a lot...but as for running no pipes, and no muffler...that's sketchy...that's still be loud as ----, but not half as bad as having an N/A. |
Re:Apexi Muffler
I ran my car with just the downpipe right after I got the turbo on...it's not practical, the turbo sounded cool to me but aparantly the two cops that pulled me over, within 15 minutes of one another, didn't like it. I wasn't even getting on it because my rings were brand new. I'm gonna have to recommend a muffler. :P
