View Full Version : My "new" exhaust

So it's not bought, it was made. I think it sounds excellent and it's exactly what I was looking for. Deep throaty tone but not one that'll drive you nuts. No beehives hiding in my exhaust either.

I'll post the pics and vids tomorrow sometime. I'm tired and I don't have the time. TEASER!!!

Edit: Took about 20 mins to get it up on jackstands and get everything off the car. Then another hour to get everything cut, welded, plumbed, hung, painted, and wrapped...

No I wasn't. There's another orange MSP in Winder and it's driving me nuts cause I don't know who it is. If you ever see them again, and they are walking to or from their car, mention these forums and tell them there's another guy with the same car who wants to compare. Call me a geek or whatever but I always like meeting the owners of my brethren cars.

I'll do both. Tell you what, I'll post pics up. However, I'm gonna leave the vids off. They just don't do it justice which I kind of figured would happen being that the mic on my crappy 4mp point and shoot isn't top quality.

Here are the pics. The vid quality isn't good so you'll just have to come to Sonic to hear. For S2KJD... that means coming out to hear it (or I could ride by).

You think? I'm on my dedicated Mazda forum and all I'm getting is negative reviews. Mostly about how lame side-exit is on tuners.

im dying to hear how it sounds....ima gonna get at tyler when i get back..i want him to put in my itr headers and straight pipe...how long did it take you guys to finish? i didnt know he had his own welding equipment

MSP1660
10-21-2009, 01:52 PM
I put the total time in the OP but it was just over an hour and a half.

I'm starting to think I need to re-route it to behind the car where the old exhaust used to be. I got a buddy who did it like mine and he said the sideskirt began to melt a little. He then put an aluminum piece over it and said that pretty much solved the melting but then all sorts of soot got under the aluminum. :(

Dammit.

10-21-2009, 02:19 PM
hmmm good point..yeh you definatly wouldnt want anythin melting...you got a nice like weight reduction too scrapping out the factory exhaust

MSP1660
10-21-2009, 02:21 PM
Yeah for real. That stock muffler weighed a ton. Might give Tyler a call and get him prepped and read to relocate.

If u like it keep it!! dont keep switching shit because other people say "its lame" or "why u do that" or "side exits are fro domestics"

10-21-2009, 10:01 PM
Dude, I love you guys... that's completely 100% homo too.

Seriously, you guys make me feel good about shit. I decided today to keep it as is. I went by a buddies house who had done the same deal on his heavily boosted (25 psi) VR6 GTI and he said in a worse case scenerio, just put a little aluminum plate on the sideskirt and call it done. I agree. Shit's staying put. I love it.

Well I WAS the only one in Winder with one. However, 600 total were made in Spicy Orange. There's a number of them in GA altogether. I know for a fact one is spotting in Buford all the time cause it was broke down on 985 and all my friends were texting me asking if it was me and if I needed assistance. There are pros and cons to having a uniquely colorful car.

However, since I got this new exhaust work done, if it ain't loud, it ain't me.

10-24-2009, 07:53 PM
Tell you what Casey, we'll both go back to stock how about that? LoL

Even with your mods, you'll still come up short (probably not by much though). I think it would indeed be a very good race.

However, you're gonna have to wait until I get's my oils changed. It's a little overdue for it.

Siean
10-25-2009, 01:11 AM
What I think would happen is that Casey will get you off the line and then about 3rd or 4th gear you'll catch him on the top end. I think.......

MSP1660
10-25-2009, 07:39 PM
I'm just saying, when it goes down, realize that I'm pretty much stock... all the money spent on my ride was 400 bucks for 5-way adjustable struts and some cash for a straight pipe.

I would hate to see all that money Casey fronted for mods show that he lost to a stock boosted 6 year old car with no real performance mods to speak of.

i just think its funny that he could mod his NA mazda 3 and keep up with your boosted protege!!! hehehehehhe FUNNY!!!!..

uhhh how much are mazda 3's??......and how much are protegespeeds??...1

MSP1660
10-25-2009, 07:57 PM
Bone stock his Mazda3 came in right around 150 bhp/ 152lb-ft.

Bone stock my MSP came in right around 170 bhp/ 160lbs-ft.

So take into consideration my open exhaust with his many mods and we should be really close to even. Might even come down to the driver mod.
