i was thinking of this setup

Budget y-pipe, greddy catback, and cold air intake (not sure of what brand yet, still looking)

i was wondering
1) What it would sound like
2)How much HP would i gain (please break it up per mod)

PS my ideal sounding car would be the G35 or the fx45

1) "vroom vroom"

2) lots

well from what i hear the greddy is a much louder exhaust than say the Apexi WS, which is what i have. i think the apexi would sound more like G35 than the greddy would.

1. y-pipe+15-18hp
2. cat back=4-6hp
3. CAI=2hp (a lot of times that just shifts the power higher in the band though. I would just hack your airbox, like I am hearing everyone say they are doing for better 0-60 power. I am about to do the same.)

Sound about right guys?

sounds very nice probably 20-25whp overall gain

i have that exact setup....and omg it sounds real freakin good! specially when you jam on the gas and the CAI kicks in after 4k rpm.....its like whoa. wont really sound like a g35 coupe, but you'll be very pleased

I think you have to pay like $35,000 (or however much they cost) to have the G35 Coupe sound....ha ha

how load would you say it sound, cause i don't want it too load. I want it not to be like race car load

btw do you have greddy sp or sp2

PS can you please try to ad a sound clip?

I have a sp and its not bad. Not too load or quiet. But i dont have a y-pipe yet. Im waiting for this gd on warpspeed to go for $160 shipped. If your looking for a y-pipe jump on this deal it eans in like a week.

Both you guys, 130LeNnY96 & topdog1207, post your interest on that thread if you have not already. We need all the people that we can get. It is an excellent deal on a y-pipe.
Thanks...

where could i find a good write up on how to hack the airbox? thanx

MaximaTodd, I see that you want a y-pipe? How about one for only $160 shipped to your door with all gaskets and stuff included? And a Warpspeed at that? Well, there is a gd going on it and we need a solid 21 people to do it so that we can get that price. Please post on the following thread showing some interest if you can...

Also, I think there are write-ups in the "mod how-to's" that are at the top of the regular 4th gen forum page. Check there and let me know if you cannot find it. There are threads about it too. Lots of people have done this.

Also, Todd, there are many different methods to hack the airbox. I am probably going to do the one where you just drill some holes in the driver's side of the airbox to give it a swiss cheese look. I don't want to get too much more drastic than that. However, I don't want as much growl as some of the other guys do.

cool.

as far as the y pipe goes, i already PMed the guy who started the thread. im really interested but i kinda need it now! i was wondering if once 21 people give the ok, will the order be put in then?

billy_corgan

sorry but this is driving me crazy.....IT'S "LOUD" not "LOAD"

Noslen

haha, ya, especially when you read it "tree" times! hahah

-=PK=-Maxima

its really not too loud. sounds no where near like a "lawn mower" if you know what i mean. under regular driving its a VERY deep growl......i sometimes get a lot of noise in the cabin (depending where the rpm is) which gets kind of annoying. but its all worth it when you really hit the gas and your rpm is anywhere from 4k to redline, it sounds like a beast. a nice deep roar that comes from the engine bay not from the exhaust like most ricers! i love the way it sounds and all my friends do too. we all soup up our cars together and tell each other when we have any rice on our cars......and no one has ever said anything about the sound

sounds good, i think ill get it

as for the GD... ill check it out, its a great price

is warpspeed better then budget?

and sorry about the spelling

Brudaddy

iTrader: (2)

I have heard so. The reason people talk so much about Budget is because it is really cheap and still good. However, with a group deal, the Warpspeed is better quality (from what I hear) and it is cheaper. I would jump on it.

I30LeNnY96

yeh i think i will join the gd, what do you think installation would cost?

also the gd for the y pipe is for a aluminized steel but budget comes in SS.
Isn't SS better?
