Title: 3" exhaust ideas
Post by: 92CXyD on February 12, 2012, 02:34:16 PM
Was originally going to buy a 3" exhaust from egay for my HB.

But none are available in the $120 range or less.

I have a bunch of 3" 90s and 180s from Adam at Mandrel-Bends, when he gave a way some up at the last RHMT PNW Meet.

Thanks Adam, much appreciate it.

I need to get some 3" straights, flanges, resonator, and muffler. 

Think I should just use 2 or 3 cheerry bomb straight thru's.

And use the those 3" collector adapter from flowtech or hooker, whatever is at a parts store.

Or if cheap enough 3" sleeve clamps or v-band clamps. Like these:

or

Also looking at adding 1 or 2 of these:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/170719027766?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/170719027766?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649)
or
http://www.ebay.com/itm/230517614591?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/230517614591?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649)
for flexibility, but do not like the price of the second choice. 

So what other ideas do you NOGS have for this setup along with a decent choice for muffler.

The idea is I need a good, solid, cheap, and no-leaks solution.

I also want to travel across country with this exhaust and  be able to hear the stereo or talk in a normal vol. w/ someone.

Remember this for my Twincharge project and I want have it done for the PNW meet in May.  :noel:

I started a thread like this a month Or so ago so the eBay listing might still be good. Was a three inch that I only had to modify ever so slightly. Basically cutting a small flange off of it. Bought two resonators, a flex and connected it to the open dp I had. Complete 3" from the turbo. I would also not suggest the can that it comes with as mines pretty loud still. Oval style ones are way quieter if that's what your looking for. Although it did come with a silencer that I use for quiet driving.

I remember the thread, and I was originally going to buy the 3" exhaust I found for my hatchback, but out of stock and nobody else had a good deal on them.

I would like quiter muffler w/ low restriction.

i put a magnaflow 12219 3" strait threw muffler on the Galant. and cut up the china N1 exhaust piping from the ITR. used the china resonator.  i havent done any WOT pulls, but quite has nothing to do with WOT. its kinda loud. but what the fuck you expect? its probably a little quieter on those down hill decel conditions. little cleaner all around. plus it looks way more stock than a ricer N1 sticking out the back.


btw, thats a lot of work for an exhaust... i would just buy a china N1 lol...

Full 3" routed like a crx/ef exhaust ending in a e-cutout; stock muffler in the stock location tee'd into the 3" exhaust elbow after the LCA. That's my plan.
