I am curious to how well performance would be if I added custom piping from the muffler to the s-pipe or would it be better to buy the creativecompacts exhaust? Has anyone else done this yet and dynoed it...any info would be nice.

 

I want to do a complete 2.5 inch header-back custom bent exhaust with a nur spec muffler in a few weeks! I'll post up pics plus info!

 

2.5 sounds like overkill to me. Im no expert though

 

No way! 2.5"-3.0" is optimum for the displacement of the TC's engine. Scion Speed told me they actually showed bigger gains with the 3" S-Pipe back on an NA car then the 2.5" did. But I have 2.5" and I wish I had gone with 3" because it would have been a little bit deeper sounding.

 

How much would it cost to get aluminum piping from axle back to s pipe in 3"?

 

...and where would you find it?

 

any place that does exhaust work carries metal pipings to custom fit to a vehicle.

 

it's that easy? So you'd probably just call them up for pricing then as well?

 

Are you trying to be a smart ___? Anyways has anybody had any experience with purchasing custom exhaust piping?

 

NO...I'm being serious. Relax! I just put 2 + 2 together. If you can get the piping from "any place that does exhaust work", then they would probably have the pricing.

I'm interested in the same thing.

 

really? i thought 3" would be way to big but then again i'm no expert

 

by NA do you mean naturally aspirated? The tC is not naturally aspirated, its fuel injected.

 

i always thought NA meant no forced induction, ie: turbo or supercharged. someone wanna try explaining naturally aspirated to me :?

 

xAlex is right, NA or naturally aspirated does mean that it does not have forced induction(ie turbo or sc), regardless if it is fuel injected or carburated....

 

Hey Sponsor, Naturally Aspirated doesn't have anything to do with the fuel feeding system.

Naturally Aspirated means the way the air gets into your combustion chamber, in this case the vacuum created by the descending movement of the piston is what gets the air trough the intake manyfold and into the cylinder.

When a car is not Naturally Aspirated, it means that some kind of forced admission is used, the possible options are: supercharger or turbocharger, in which case you say that the engine is Supercharged or Turbocharged.

i stand corrected.
carry on then...

 

The question is would you consider a nitrous-ed engine a non NA system. Thats where the you lay in between the crack..

 

boy, i hope you know more about lights than what you know about cars

 

No because it adds more oxygen molecules in to the combustion chamber

 

If the intake has negative boost (aka vacuum) then it is NA(natuarally aspirated). if it has positive boost then it is FI(forced induction)

Nitrous systems still run on a vacuum therefore it is NA
