nissanthanh Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) So my build is coming to an end. Spare wheel well has been cut out for the f body fuel tank, gauges are ready to be installed. One last thing at the VERY VERY end, is the exhaust. I've heard a lot of people go 3 inch. I'm wanting to learn towards 3.5 single from 3inch collectors to a 3.5 inch y pipe through a resonator and a muffler. I really really want to avoid drone. And i REALLY want to avoid having to do a true dual out setup. Here's what I got so far. 4inch intake into stock ls1 from 2000 SS sanderson block huggers from JTR, ceramic coated 3 inch collectors. WANT TO GO TO 3.5 inch y pipe, to a resonator, and a muffler, then out. What do you guys think? How would it fit under the s30 body? Am I looking for too much with a 3.5? ANY sound clips are welcome. I've been coming through youtube to find a good 3.5 inch exhaust note, but i've been seeing a lot of STATESMAN machines from australia. PS, I want a smoother throaty sound than a cammed sound that seems to want to rip through the pipes. Maybe that has a lot to do with what tips? =T Edited January 14, 2015 by nissanthanh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thezguy Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) Drone is almost inevitable with a dual system and no mufflers. However the note you get is just awesome. I have a true dual 3" system with an Xpipe and bullets at the very end (tips welded on the bullets) 3.5" would be tough to fit but it's possible. Your biggest issue will be wrapping it under the diff. Edited January 15, 2015 by thezguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Get too loud and tracks will ban you. My SCCA autocross club has a dB meter at every event. The track where I do track days has a dB meter too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

socorob Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Yea. I posted what I used in the description of the video. It's crazy loud. Once I get the interior back in, if it's still so loud, I will probably add resonators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait a minute I will most likely be right there with you........ Psssst. I think youre the one that needs to be worried about traction. LOL that S/C and factory ECU is going to be tough out the gate. Don't forget the Holley dominator has the option to ramp in boost as I so choose and at what rate Side note you going to be at TX2K15?

texis30O Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 I have a secret "pedal modulator"..... I am thinking hard about it. If so I am sure that we LSZs should all go together...... the trick is do you think that Alan will be ready? I think that 3 Zs terrorizing them should be fun.

Would be awesome but I don't think there is a chance in hell his car will be ready. Between Richey auto dragging ass and the laundry list of crap he will in counter assembling everything. It will likely be next year for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socorob Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Do you have a muffler? Dual resonators did nothing more than clean up the rasp for me. I have a flowmaster hushpower. It isn't so hush though, at least not as much as I would like it to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thezguy Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) The resonator will clean it up but don't expect a drastic reduction in DB. With that said I have some nice magnaflow race series mufflers I need to get rid of.. Too quiet for me.

nissanthanh Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 I have been listening to exhaust clips online. I'm liking magnaflo and dynomax. Mainly dynomax. Throaty, not raspy. I really hate the raspy sound. I'm not sure whether to do 3 inch collectors to a 3 inch y pipe to single out, or 3 inch collectors to 3.5 inch y pipe single through a resonator and a dynomax bullet. 3.5 from y collector out.

thezguy Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 The first clip is with dynomax bullet mufflers and no resonators. They sound great but are very loud and the rasp is non existent. However there is a nasty drone at 65-70mph. I am running duals so I don't know how that would effect it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastTnZ Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) I have a slight drone in mine cruising in 6th around 1800 rpm on the highway. I'm looking into putting resonator tubes out from the exhaust to try out and see if it helps. Calculate the frequency and figure out how long they need to be then try it. I found it over on performancetrucks forum today. I'm running a dual 2.5 to single 3, then a 3 in/out Borla muffler. http://www.performancetrucks.net/forums/sponsor-sales-specials-135/how-build-exhaust-resonator-tube-eliminate-drone-489463/ Edited January 15, 2015 by EastTnZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zfan1 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) I was thinking about taking my Z out to the TX2K15 myself. Got a little something new in the Z that I'd like to try out. I pulled the L76 6 liter out the other day. Edited January 15, 2015 by Zfan1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
