Thread: Custom/Bespoke Exhausts

  1. #21

    Default

    As an aside to people on here - what would people prioritise on buying a new exhaust system:-

    - Sound?
    - Power?

    i.e. would you rather have an extra 15bhp but lose either some top-end induction wail or get some low-mid-rev boominess. Or would you rather get an engine that sounds better than OE but doesn't really deliver any extra power???

    Blue '08 FD2 CTR - big, ITR-sized shoes to fill...
    Yellow '96 NSX 3.0 - oh was it worth the wait!
    Black '99 ITR - well, I had to have another one, the first was so much fun. Miss this one even more than #1...
    Blue '03 S2000 - SOLD, flawed but fun
    Blue '04 Focus TDCi Sport - SOLD, very good fun for a diesel!
    Black '00 ITR - SOLD, still missed
    Red '98 Civic VTi - SOLD, probably still bombproof

    Why settle when you can have both?

    Gruppe M is really that good, but can be improved a tad. I done it and it is high pitched up to and V8 sound on iddle. You can still hear the induction.

    The GT One 5.1 loose between 5 to 7 bhp to something like the Dali/ARK DT S/ GT One V1,V2.

    As I said before you won't find one that make less power than the standard Honda item so just select the sound you prefer.

    The cutaway pics attached show why the Honda one is poor.

    The GT One 5.1 may be a few hp down on the very highest performing ones, I don't think it's as much at 7hp, but it still makes about 10hp more that the standard one.

    Cheers

    Missed this. Why does T316 help? It signifies the mix of additives in the stainless steel right? What makes T316 more suited to exhaust applications than T304?

    From what I read T316 is more Marine based?
