Ichiba Y pipe + Ichiba Test Pipes + Greddy TI-C's
 

Well yesterday I went and installed these three items. Well I already had the Greddy's on.

1. Quality - The welds were nice and tight on both the the Ichiba items and seemed to be well made, Im not a pro but a pipe is a pipe. When the stock cats were removed along w the y pipe I was in awe at the restrictions of them and I knew that I was gonna like this

2. Performance- Im very hard to satisfy when it comes to horsepower mods, comming from an 04 Cobra where I would see 40+ horsepower changes on mods its just hard. When I installed the Fujita intakes I felt zero gains and same with the Greddy's (when people were claiming that it felt soooo much diff.:cool:) Anyway when both Ichiba's were combined with the greddy's, there is definately a big difference in gains. I cannot comment on the y pipe itself since it was installed with the test pipes.

3. Sound- The most important part right (well atleast to me) when they started the car I immediately noticed a do not fcuk w me growl:eek: really woke up the greddys:p

when your stopped and rev it, as the revs come down there is a slight vibration but i believe its bc the brackets that go to the tranny to prevent this were removed.

When your slowy accelerating the greddy purs with a deep growl and when it gets to about 4k rpms the high pitch exotic sound kicks in, a sound that I have been searching for since my first car 11 years ago.

Down shifting sounds beyond incredible and turns heads and there is no light YET and no smell.

Long story short, I am very stuborn with exhaust and mods, in which I do not feel but gains and sounds, but this thing is just a beast, it is loud but exotic loud.

I WOULD LIKE TO THANK MY FRIEND THAT I MET ON HERE 305 G WHO HOOKED ME UP WITH DT PERFORMANCE IN PLANTATION FLORIDA, THESE GUYS WERE GREAT AND SHOWED GREAT PROFFESSIONALISM AND KNOWLEDGE AND FUNNY:biggthumpup:

if its just on the decel it may just be the VVEL ... some exhaust get it...some dont.

YES! It almost sounds like an air leak/rattle..... but its almost only when its in park

nice hope you njoy it!!! ur greddy will continue to break in more....

i never would of left the cobra!!! lol...but thats just me...

that noise is normal....its the rattling of the pipe so fast and the flex pipes...

yea that noise is a weird one... It had me flippin out when i first heard it... I had it with Stillen and then with Borla is got a lil quieter... then with FICF it vanished... so :dunno:

It has to do with the cats i think... cause I took the stillen off and started the car with HFCs only and the noise was there... Im just glad the FI exhaust makes it go bye bye...

but again... id recheck all your nutz just to make sure its tight...

cool thanks, and yeah Ive had the Greddys for a while so Im sure they are broken in :)

well dont forget there are no cats with bigger piping and a bigger y pipe...your making more air flow out, so it will get a lil louder not too much tho...

Thats ok :) Just got back from a drive feels like a new car and turns heads everywhere woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

can you post a clip of your car with this setup? I really wanna hear a greddy ti-c with test pipes

any videos or sound clips?

I knew someone would ask lol!, let me see if my bud comes over and well do some :) if not over the weekend.

we need some videos =p .... cant wait to hear that thing !

yea deff need to see some vids up :biggthumpup:

congrats on it...good that you feel some decent gains.

Nice... Anxious to see how this set-up sounds.....

nice. glad you like it.... sound clips!
