Single exit! Sounds soooo much better!

 

i know what you mean but i think you lose the V6 sound with a single, sounds more like a straight 6??

 

but its an option ;)

 

Mike

Twin exhausts not only look better but sound better.

 

If I didn't have my Vielside Evolution (the most expensive 'off the shelf exhaust' you could ever get for the Z32) then I'd be going for something like twin rectangular slash cuts. Bit like the Lotus Carlton exhausts.

There used to be a company that made Z32 exhausts in that exact style. I can't for the life of me remember who and where I saw them. I've been hunting for photos of it, but can't find them. They fit the bumper cutouts exactly.

Speak to Leon at Alunox mate, he can make any style you want.

 

Mike, you're right, single does sound like a straight but I much prefer it, much racier. Can't wait to hear what a V8 at 9k sounds like through a single!

i'm with leon today ;)

Mike, can you ask Leon how my mainfolds are getting on :D

 

And as to which exhaust, i dont think i need to answer that LOL :D

Nice one, give the pencil neck a slap from me and tell him to get on with my sump pans :D

He's right you know!!! I've just done mine nd the V6 sound is phenominal!! The problem your gonna have kirbz is if you go for the twin set up you will be restricting your gas free flow ever so slightly because when it reaches the back box and although straight through, the gas then has to change direction and split into a Y formation, so it gets to a point's where at speed when hits the Y and splits down which ever route it can it can be slowing down the gas flow output increasing back pressusre...

 

You wanna have a fast output flow from the turbo's all the way down the exhaust pipe to the back boxs and then at the end get of the pipe get rid of the gas as quickly as possible using a large bore silencer to create a venturi effect...

 

I've noticed quiet a big difference in the way my car pulls now and especially so from 4000rpm all the way up to 7564RPM hitting the rev limiter just by hacking off my old Mongoose back boxes and fitting straight through 3" silencers.... It's well worth doing.... See my link down the bottom... I'm gonna go for another rolling road session again soon cause i'm 100% convinced it's gained more torque and power, everyone that's been in my car since have asked what else i've done to the engine to give it more grunt, which is nothing, just the silencers...

 

The other problem you have is normally with a twin back box, they are a few kg heavier than having just a single exit with pipe... My old Mongoose back boxes which i've just ditched weighed in at a whopping 11kg each!!! My new custom made ones are only 4kg each with the tail pipe and remember boys and girls that weight kills acceleration!!! :D

 

Hope you get something sorted that works for you dude but please don't get a twin back box set up as is not gonna be right for you especially with the power your gonna be running... It would just strangle the power...

That looks a lot like mine (which is the Ab Flug SS exhaust).

 

I really like the sound it makes.

i'm with leon today ;)

 

Thats what the rush is for.

 

Well Mike have you got an engine hoist I can borrow?

 

X flow with 2 straight through singles. Sounds and looks the part.

 

just by chance thats what I have.

twin mate.

I will have once my enine is back in mate and your welcome to borrow it ;)

 

After long and intensive chat with leon we have made a decision and its gonna sound mental :cool:

 

Ive gone for a single exit exhaust purely to help with the flow of gas's so a 4 inch system it is :nana2:

 

He's also doing a few other bits and bobs for me ;)
