rich280zxt Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 rb26, I'd even go with 3 1/2 piping. Depending on how much you boost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on how much you boost. yea if i do the rb26 swap, im going to use a hks hi-power turboback muffler with 3.5" diameter piping. but for now 3" is plenty good, its amazing how much exhaust piping and less harsh bends will improve your car's pull. with the new 45 degree mandrel for the downpipe instead of a 90 degree, it pulls a lot harder, and i hit full boost @ 600 rpms lower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich280zxt Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 oh yea, and theres no back pressure so I noticed right away I could rev alot higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK-Z Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 On the subject of exhaust. Anyone know of a company that sells 1 inlet 2 outlet mufflers in a horizontal layout, and sound decent? I like the symmetry look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the symmetry look. why would you use 1" piping? you're choking your car. the least it should be is 2, i'd go 2.5" minimum personally, you can find nice dynomax or flowmaster mufflers that have bigger piping if you're going for the OEM look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben280zx Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I don't think he's referring to 1" but rather 1 way in to the muffler and two port out on the muffler that look "stock." AK-Z, I believe HKS make them as I have them on mine, I'll take pix when I get the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich280zxt Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Thats was the sytle of most old school japanese cars, with the muffler sideways. I can't think of any good mufflers though off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich280zxt Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 No, you're talking about what most 240sx people do. Old school is like this.. Only he wants a dual outlet muff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armand Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I'm sure that Apexi muffler sounds great, and I don't know If I'm the only one who thinks this but it just looks SO ricey! Sorry I hate to be negative but that muffler just sticks out like a sore thumb and is the first thing that catches the eye when you look at the car. Sorry!
