Well, almost got it done.
Here are some pics of it 90% done.
Just have to do some fabbing on the car itself,
and cut the end of this off at an angle for ground clearance/aesthetics.
No I haven't tried it fired-up yet, and yes, I am scared...
If the shape looks impossible, you'll get it tomorrow.

Beside a "tall" beer can(473ml)

Beside a standard tape..

Aluminum v-band flange

Where I welded the 2.5"-3" transition onto old set-up


Finish it up tomorrow after school....:noes:

Yes, this is for my rsx...:bigpimp:
Burns ultralight 3" muffler, aluminum dump after that.
More pics later tonight of it on-car.

 

niice!

 

nice. i like the beer can there for comparison

 

Yep, the gold standard...
Car might be loud, not sure...
It was so quiet before, not sure how I'll cope. lol

 

QUIET BEFORE ARE YOU KIDDING ME???????? HAHAHAHAH

You sitting at the tree bouncing off your two stage can be heard for MILES!!!! lol

Its gonna be insane now... looks good...

But call me a redneck, but im thinking about losing my hi-flo muffler on my 5" exhaust and install a set of smoker stacks on the truck...now that will be loud...and smokey hahahah... what do you think? Not too many trucks around like that and i want to be original becuase i see 100s of trucks identical to mine....

 

I think it would be great. I agree, do something new. I like loud and proud. It's the Alberta way.

Well, it's loud. It sounds awesome!!!(insert Jeremy Clarkson evil laugh here)
Have to secure some header-wrap, thought I had some laying around...
Gay winter tires spin too much, and squirm under hard accel.
Datalog shows lean conditions between 5800 and 6700, and a little at 78-8100.
Only .4-.8 of an a/f ratio point though, so likely not worth a dyno.

Seriously though, ground clearance FTW!!!

 

wow thats awesome...

My 5.0L had dumps and the ehaust bouncing off the road seems to make it louder than a pipe that goes straight out....

yours looks great...

nice to not see a fart can on the end of an acura with black soot trailing up the bumbper cover hahahahahhaha

 

i wana hear a sound clip of this thing!

 

+1!!!


I don't care what it is DUMP PIPES FTW!!!

 

Oh god......I hate stacks. Out here where I live, big jacked up diesels with stacks are everywhere! They always drive past me and floor it so that they can shoot smoke all over me and attempt to impress me like I actually cared, lol. If I was into racing big diesel trucks, I'd go buy a badass trash truck or something.

 

I'll see if I can get a clip.
Was busy with the laptop last night making sure it was safe.

 

Here is a quick little vid beside the garage.
Revved it to 6000 once there, the rest was to 4-5000 on the blips etc.
Cheers...

i kinda like it

 

Drive-by videos!

 

Yeah, I thought it turned out ok.
I was expecting the worst.
I find the k-series sounds alot better than the b-series that the civics and integras had.
They were always so tinny and raspy.

Drive-by video might be a few days...

 

yeah i know they are everywhere in the US lol, not many in canada...

and watch out for alot of diesels... there are more 12 sec 1 tonne diesel trucks running around then there are cobalts........

 

Tomorrow I'll get a drive-by video with my buddy.
Then tuesday in for new parts.

 

That kind of sounds like a Cobalt.

 

My friends LS CRX has a Tanabe racing full system from Japan. Awesome sound for a Honda. I gotta hear what THIS set-up sounds like though. lol. All I know is when we first fired up the LS, the exhaust ended at the header. So it was fully open pipes. Plus it had a stage 2 clutch and a lightweight flywheel on it. DC headers. So basically this thing was very loud and revved very quick. It sounded like a really dope go-kart. hahahaha

 

Couple more pics and an in-car video/sound clip





Here is the vid, it's in-car. The drive-by one is too long right now, not sure how to edit it.

1st-4th in car

 

sweet

Hot!

 

Here is the other vid of the drive-by.
The start is ok as I pull away, then fast forward to 1:03 remaining...
