you know, i thought about 7", being that it is one of my lucky numbers, and relatively the size of my SHWANG, but technically speaking, 7 inch is not possible because it's not going to fit, which is ironic, because some girls have said that to me too.

 

I wasn't talking about turbo applications, I guess I thought he meant it for N/A. Beats me...

 

A big exhaust does NOT equate an open down pipe. That's just moronic to think.

 

dude are you serious?
ur gonna go to the muffler shop and the guys are gonn laugh at you. do u research before you do anything?

with that big of an exhaust ur gonna do nothin but lose power! u'll never make enough power to justify a 5 INCH DIAMETER exhaust!

 

that pic has definitely made my day

 

okay, in the name of physics, it's not EXACTlY an open down pipe, but it is the closest thing you'll get to one. basically, the idea is to have as much flow as you can, and this is the one of the larger optionns you can opt for. what's moronic about that. it makes sense.

 

when i hear 5" exhaust this kind of jumps into my mind...

 

my friends grandma used to own a tow company that had an auction ever other week. a mutual friend once said
"you know how we can come up on some money? we can just take a couple of cars from the auction and sell them on the side. NOONE WILL KNOW"

i think these people are sharing the same brain waves. that is absolutely rediculous to have a butthole that big. because if i was behind you and you shot carbon blow by all over my PW car i would ram your car into a wall. just my 2 cents

 

Total waste of space on a tC. Granted, with a turbo, you can get your scavenging without needing as small of an exhaust, but after a point you are simply allowing the gasses after the turbo to cool longer while in the system, thus making them harder to move. A small effect here, but just a sign that you are overdoing things. An open header is NOT the same as a 5 inch pipe the length of the car. While the gas is still in the pipe, the system still has to move it.

And backpressure is not what the system needs, backpressure is just a symptom that comes along with what the car needs: enough restriction to create the effect that best works for the intake and exhaust process.

 

okay. the picture didn't do justice, but in my mind, it is like, beautiful. here, i'll revise it:

 

Looks like Mickey Mouse's head.

 

just run a nice 2.5 or 3 inch setup and mount a exhaust cutout after the header. problem SOLVED.

u don't want ur scion to look like the back of a rocket ship..and the last big coffe can I saw like that I put my foot in..then it got stuck and I fell over but yeah no need for 5'' costum set up just wasted cash moneys

 

Funniest thing I have ever heard you say.

 

 

Greddy makes a turbo kit for the 07 tC... my friend here in so cal has one.. its nice.

 

that's signature material there.

though i don't have enough room in mine... wanna do the honors?

 

Don't hold back dave...how do you really feel?

 

You did mention squirrels and mice could fit in it. I think it's dope...errrr on dope.

 

how the hell did you know what i was thinking? i was actually doing a custom cam setup with the acura tsx cams into the engine, along with some internals from the mustang for more torque, and maybe some forged pistons specifically made for a ferrari. this way, i can run 11's all day and still get like 23 mpg. i dunno if i'm going to patent this idea, so you guys feel free to do as i did.

 

oh man i couldnt stop lauging when i saw the first post, but then he goes on like hes serious. cant tell if hes just draggin us along for the ride or actually serious

and someone said something about true dual exhaust, on an L4 is that really necessary or even possible?
