It's not the ralliart owners, for the most part we don't see this kind of stuff. I don't go into the OZ forum and start telling people what to do everyone is here because we like the same thing wether it's a 400 whp evo or a sub 200 whp N/A Lancer.....

 

finally, they kicked him out.

 

no, I believe he was already headed for the door when amby opened it and showed him out. there were multiple posts deleted, looks like a few of mine as well as his. sometimes things get out of hand, that's why we have mods. thanks amby.

 

seriously thanks amby now lets get back to our civilized conversation that we were having. before it started going down hill and to all the people reading this thread i apologize about the whole commotion that went on in here.

 

ok guys well hopefully tomorrow is the day that i should be getting my header so im gonna put a sound clip of before the header and a soundclip after the header so stay tuned

 

hey guys so i got my header today from zboys lancer and it looks good not scratched up or anything. so tomorrow i will be installing the header and just for now here is a before the header vid of my exhaust

ya know ive done alot of custom exhaust and for the most part i believe the sound part of it really comes from the tip you have on the end ill try to get a post of my car it sounds really nice and deep its 2.5" from cat back but im workin on my turbo kit so i didnt want to invest in the HDP combo, ehter way it makes sence

1 if you have a exhaust that looks like this ( pic 1) it will pretty much for sure be raspy imo
2. or if your exhaust is like this at the end ( pic 2) it will pretty much sound deep and not raspy

3. also quality of the tip piece is a factor to some are built more solid i.e less vibration, some arent so they vibrate internaly

 

to some extent the shape, especially the shape of the tip, dictate sound. most of your better sounding exhaust parts are from quality though. the filler, materials, and welds all make a big difference. filler is the most important part in sound damping and tonal quality. thick and high quality will prevent it from burning out and it will take out all your high frequency sounds, thin and cheap and you will either end up with a shell and burnt out filler or at the very least it won't quell the high frequency sounds as well. the size of the body of the muffler plays a role, you can fit more filler in an oval muffler. also, larger shapes allow the sound to bounce around more, and it interferes with the other sounds waves.

 

ok guys well i got the H+DP installed i reved up the car a little bit and it doesnt sound all that bad i havent taken the car on the road yet and i havent taken a video yet either but this weekend i will def get a vid up of the sound quality. one thing that i have to say is that the car got alot louder so this weekend we will se how it sounds on the road

 

Bringing back a super old thread but was wondering about the results you got from your Header/downpipe combo.? I considering if I should purchase it or not. Also Did you add the HFC? If so how does it sound, not like a riced honda I'm sure! Hopefully everything worked out for you!

 

I had just the do from rrm and that **** was loud ricey.
