Test pipe+b-pipe+axleback=fart can?
Ok here is the deal guys,
I just installed the T1R test pipe+Spoon B-pipe I got from a local member.
I already have the Aspec axleback. After I installed the parts I took the car for a quick spin. Now it was nightmare.... I felt soooo embarassed for the whole night. The car got noticable louder and I could understand that but whenever I "stepped" on the gas a bit harder the car sounds like it's gonna explode lol really high pitched ricer fart can tone.
I took the car the next morning to have the stock cat and stock muffler installed back on because I couldn't stand the sound any more seconds....
tone is drasticly reduced and I will probably have my aspec axleback installed back on tomorrow to see if it is still ok.
My point is, is it normal when you have the test pipe(cat delete) installed?
Or could it be exhaust leak? I always hear this pssshhh sound when I step on gas but my friend check for me and told me it's because of the straight through flowing b-pipe I have.
PS: Is there suppose be a gasket between the testpipe and b-pipe? Because I could find my stock one as I have looked on both end and I looked up on bernardiparts and they had one between oem cat and b-pipe in the image.
Any input ?

I gotta see your car in real & see if there's any leak, but it's hard to contact u on MSN.....
It's quite normal if it gets high pitch loud if u use an Aspec muffler though, same thing with APEXi N1 due to the big piping on the axleback part. If u want it to be quieter I suggest u to install the stock cat back on or some other muffler(like Mugen_Dom's Mugen muffler) on to your car.

Would having a aftermarket header quiet things down?
#11
gotta save up for turbo
#15
It's hard to resist getting one when you already have the funding
But it's just not the right time for me to turbo this car yet
#17
it's hard to say
i'd think they are maybe about equal
i have a gasket between my TP and B-pipe
my exhaust is a little loud but if i take the spoon n1 off it's super loud

I think it would make more sense to do option #1. you dont want less restrictive testpipe, then stock bpipe, then a less restrictive axleback. Just a thought though.
#19
Same...
This is exactly why I sold my Test-Pipe, I have A-spec: header, b-pipe, axel back. When I had the test-pipe on there was no header but the sound that came out the that exhaust was just awfull. I mean, to quote "Fart can" raspy. So I sold test pipe got header, leave everything else don't worry about power gains. Leave stock cat, and just grab a header. IMO
