exactly. weather or not its welds or bolts whats to point if its stupid loud without the silencer. you might as well just buy the can and have a exhaust shop custom make you the tubing. the silencer will decrease boost and hp with a ending tip of 1.5 inch period. my exhaust for example is...

dam. ive done 300 miles(which is half of what you do) a lo and dam i get tired of it unless i was going full out as fast as i could.

there is a difference between mandrel bent and crush bent. in the last pic (which i think you are referring to as the 7th pic) it shows the smaller part welded(as i see it) in the exhaust. either get pics from the supplier showing that its screws or assume its welds. either way if you have to...

wow. you beat your engine's more than most people with good hp(not the most but a good amount at high rpm) but you always make things better with real world action.

you will get more performance with a 3in exhaust than you will with the stock exhaust with a stock engine and turbo. get it?

yes its hard to tell from the pics. but if the exhaust is loud as hell w/o the silencer then its a piece. there's no point in installing a 350$exhaust that you need a silencer to make it driveable w/o a head ache.

nice. is the 340e going into your ls build?

im pretty sure about knowing this(correct me if im wrong) but all the sm comps are different if you have turbo or n/a and abs was a option so there will be different sm out there. just like if you want to hook up a ge sm to a gte car you will have mileage that will be wrong.

awesome. i think there should be a sticky about this after documented facts.

I have to say lol at this silencer stuff. The end i see tack welds which looks like its not a silencer. Get pics of the exhaust from inside the muffler and then you will really know. Even if its a silencer it will still effect performance as the exit is still half of what a full 3 in exhaust...

nice. im not doubting you at all IJ. you always give real facts im just interested in the info.

I searched for this before on the epc in cygusx but i could not find anything about turbo's having an extra clutch pack. Not calling you out by any means IJ as i hate auto's but i would just like more info on this. edit: the a340e has been used in many many cars up until the 06's i believe in...

it looks like a piece of crap seeing how the end of the muffler that exits is about 1.5 in in diameter and will cause a major decrease in flow and hp. do not buy.

its a 12mm bolt. impact gun seems way over rated for just a 12mm bolt. i always use a 13in snap on ratchet which makes things easier but those bolts should have stripped before they would have gotten to the point of breaking sockets.

so why does it need abs input? for checking codes?

my bad.

yes. im assuming its for the speed sensor so it can calculate the mpg and such. edit: oil change intervals will be off and everything speed/miles related.

looks sick. hopefully you can make the meat.

righty tighty, lefty loosey. its easier to pull both the trans and engine together. you could remove the trans from engine and pull it that way or get a quality socket with a longer ratchet or even use a breaker bar. they shouldnt be at 100ft lbs.

nice photo chop.
