Looks like 200sx cars really benefit from cat-back. Jay on the list was saying that the piping necks down to 1.5 inches at one point - that's a hell of a restriction!
Interesting, didnt realize that. So, is it really worth the extra bucks to just throw the cat back on there? I was just gonna do the muffler, but maybe I will reconsider. What setups work for people?? Suggestions? (I have read through the archives and the FAQ, but there just seems to be lots of conflicting info) Thanks all.
If your having pitty why not post in the classic forum. It seems that Im the only active classic owner here. And your a nx2k guy the classic is closer to your car than these slow b14's ... just kidding. But do I want a NX2K need to save up some money and find me one.
ya, they do bennifit from them b/c our exhaust curves more than a b13. I do believe that our exhaust will make more top end power b/c it is larger than any other exhaust out there (2.5") but not any more bottom end, I think it will compliment a good header and a set of cams more than anything.
Well, I suppose the exhaust will go on the back burner for a while. Next I still have to find a nice CAI and a new suspension kit. So you like the setup Ben? How much did they run you total, bout $650?? I think I will stay away from the Tokicos cause they seem to wear out real fast. I may ramble, but I guess the 200s have to be represented by a moron like me at the very least. If anyone cares, Robocar.com has a special on Rasing Sports headers for $149. Dirt cheap, they probably arent the greatest. I was just suprised that our cars were even listed among the numerous integras and civics.
Yes, I'm posting again. What can I say, I'm bored! Speaking of exhaust, when I was in the Stillen showroom in L.A. a few years ago, he had a 200sx se-r in there with a full roll cage, and this car had a dual-exhaust setup! I wonder how they routed the pipes, the power, and how noisy it was? It looked good. Later.
That's what I was kind of thinking....ricey! It looked good, but you better be sporting a sr20det or something to back it up. Of course the Pontiac Sunfire GT has a similiar set-up. On that car the pipes split in two from the cat, on left is the resonator and goes out to the back with a tip, and on the right is the muffler goes out to the back with a tip. You would think it would sound funny and WOT. Later.
actually I think that they had a dual muffler setup with that, probably y's off where it bends to go to the right side of the car. sounds ricey, but I have actually thought about doing it.....until I hear a 4 banger w/ dual exhaust, yuck :-) but it might be like the rk exhaust for the cavalier (if you have seen it, you know what I am taling about) but the roll cage, mmmmmmmmmm (what do you think about a yellow one in the NOS monster? actually not monster, more like putter:-)
Yeah, I have seen those dual exhausts on neons a lot lately. They sound funny, like a baseball card in the spokes or something. Duals would be for cosmetic only as far as I know. Espicially in the case of turbo cars, a single exhaust keeps the backpressure lower than duals. But, I have to admit the "fake" duals on my mr2 give it a mean look. BTW, I went to importpartsplus.com, and they had the KYB AGXs for $450 shipped. Is the best place to get them still P-s-t.com?? I know that thread has been beaten like a redheaded stepchild, but I was just curious....
