once I get my exhaust leak fixed I do a video this weekend of my set up.


My poor flex pipes had one replaced now the other went bad lol.

I still think you can't beat this exhaust for under $500 shipped.

Fitment is spot on and it sounds pretty good too.

Tanabe Axle back with Berks HFC Cold Start!

Are you getting a bunch of rasp when accelerating?

A little bit, really only noticeable on a cold start. It goes away once it's warmed up. Trying to get a magnaflow x-pipe and larger piping throughout to get rid of it.

I've noticed that with my setup now (resonator delete) that it's a little raspy when the exhaust is cold. What is that?

bsettles

Main reason I ask is I have a similar setup and I am fighting some pretty considerable rasp. Maybe I just hear it more than others but it seems like quite a bit.

What are you running?

Injen SRI's, Kinetix HFC's, Megan Y-Pipe, and Tanabe Axleback's.

I don't think it is as bad as I have convinced myself it is because my friends last night said they might not have noticed had I not said anything.

But it definitely does exist. I am going to try to to get some resonators in the y-pipe weekend after next, and kind of try to recreate how Motorydyne has fixed the coupe and RWD's slight rasp.

It could be the variation of diameter in your piping. Try putting your stock y pipe back on first. You aren't going to notice a difference in power.

I had close to the same exact noise with the stock y-pipe.

Its either different sizes at the cats or a different size at the y-pipe/Mid pipe connetion.

If it is pipe size the two different y-pipe (stock vs Megan) are producing almost the same exact noise.

The purchase of the Megan was basically only because I thought it might help, and it didn't.

That's most likely the culprit. Custom 2.5in piping to the mufflers with resonators would definitely help.

I bought this exhaust last week and am going to modify it to fit my X sedan. It's all 304 stainless and is pretty decent quality. The entire system was cheaper than what I can buy the stainless tubing / mufflers for myself. More to come

Edit: Here is an actual pic of the exhaust. I made sure to not get the burnt tips and got the exhaust with the beveled tips:
