capt_furious Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Ohhh, nice setup. I'd like the BRE style exit as well, but I'm working with what I've got. Did you build that yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurkishSquirrel Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 One more question: for the twice pipes, should I use stock exhaust adapter or 2.5" adapter? for this manifold: http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/PEC02/15-6011 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auxilary Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Aux and I have kicked around fabbing out the crossover and putting in two straight pipes. Not sure what this will do to the sound(more like an exotic V-12? Less?), but as Tony said, I'll probably not even notice the difference in power, assuming there is one. I'm actually looking for mileage at this point, considering my Z is daily driven. I think we may want to leave it in the original configuration, with the X pipe collector in the middle. Yours is more of a true X pipe rather than the 2-1-2 conversion pictured in MSA's catalog (that's the stock header config). The exhaust pulse compensation would be better than individual 3 cyl banks shooting out of each pipe. Also, we can make something interchangeable, so that you can climb under and swap out the pieces as needed. The X pipe isn't welded in, so that gives us a lot of leeway Looks as if there might be a clearance issue underneath...they really hang down low, don't they? nope, that's your excuse to get new shocks, bigger rims and tires. you're already running undersized tires for your car, 195/65/14? 205/60/15 would be more appropriate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
