v band butt clamp ftw

 

Are you running duals?


bet it sound great with just a resonator and universal turbo muffler

 

Vbands are nice, but they're not leak free, gotta be okay with them leaking when cold

 

i am totally making the new exhaust out of 300 series stainless 2.5" pipe with precision turbos V bands.. because i have a few of them

 

Those thrush turbos actually sounds really good, they're just extremely restrictive

 

the 6.7l is straight except for a 8" long resonator and sounds fabulous


I kind of want to be louder but I also like when I don't want to hear it

 

na, no duals. im probably going to end up with a non resonated aero turbine and add a resonator to mess with the sound after. i do like how the magnaflow was routed so i will copy that.

 

Aero turbines are nice. That is what I would run on the 67 if I jump to a 5" exhaust

 

bruh I am the model for "if it works when intended it's fine"

 

they seem to do the job with minimal impact on perfromance.. im probably going to run 2 magnaflow spun cats too. as much as id like to run catless. i see no point

 

huh never heard that.. too much fiberglass packing in the flow patH?

I agree on running the cat -- no performance impact and a little bet better for the environment is still a little bit better for the environment


and you dont' have to smell nasty exhaust fart fumes

 

No the insides are just a bunch of perforations and unconnected tubes....



I'd never use one on anything that revs worth a damn or had forced induction, or even was a big displacement. But it sounded good on my NA Z31.

the spun metallic cats work well and minimal impact on flow. i'll run like it was from the factory. but it'll be 1 pipe with 2 cats VS the 2 cats on separate pipes. i want less flanges if possible. 2.5" from the header collectors back to the tip

 

No they really don't, and they're all only OBDI compliant. But they're better than nothing for sure. I have had a few and still do on the cruiser, though that's getting one of the M3 cats from my buddy's car since he pulled the stockers.

 

i may even try just a resonator with the cats and see how it sounds.. i dont know, im not going for super loud but i also dont want restriction

 

ive got one on the corolla and its been working great for 300k. no check engine light or anything?

the ceramics suck. the metallics work fine for these older trucks

 

Get a straight through muffler then, cause the 5VZ with only a resonator sounds like mine does above 4k but all the time. Like ass

 

we'll see what happens. ive got some time before i have a running truck.
