ok got my dp today! looks great now deciding if i should go install and tune or wait for more parts to come in before i go tune again

 

I'm glad you received it

I suggest waiting til you've got all the parts that you want for this particular "stage" and have it tuned last.

do the downpipes for the evo x's fit on the ralliart because it seems that a few companies are using the x's downpipe on the ralliart... HKS have the same part number for both ralliart and x's for their downpipe and UR from their site looks like they do too.

 

ya some companies are doing the same dp as evo just check with them to make sure. The one from Ultimate racing works for the RA and Evo

 

How far would you recommend going before a tune is required? would it be possible to run the full TBE , before getting it tuned?

 

Have you installed the DP yet?

I think of ordering it along with Resonated Test pipe to complete my exhaust system. But, waiting to hear how loud the muffler is on stock before ordering.

 

All of the parts we have offered (with an exception to the fuel components) have been tested without tuning. Again, we always ensure that air/fuel ratios, and ignition timing are in check and safe. A turboback exhaust would be no problem at all on a stock tune.

Just installed dp and getting 3 inch piping to exhaust! Anyone knows if I should disconnect battery to reset ecu? Or disconnect the negative??

 

most of the time its the negative.

 

ok well i drove around in it for a bit, no cel which is good but this set up is REALLY loud.. i mean it sounds deep and great but when you gun it its way loud. if you guys want like a g35 sound then dont do the 3 inch pipe. Just change the muffler. you wont be "sneaky" with the 3 inch set up. you'll defiantly be heard. power increase...um nothing drastic

 

Yeah, I figured it be way too loud, even with my setup , I have full catback with 3" piping, without the DP it was still too loud, too much droning noise, esp with the magnaflow muffler, which they seem to be popular for, So I installed a resonator inline, and I want a DP because I have a exhaust cutoff valve inline right now so I can bypass the muffler and everything, but when i do get the DP I will have the Cat installed after the cutoff valve with resonato and everything, or else im back to square one loud *** droning...

 

ya thats the same setup i got. what exhaust cutoff valve? you put that yourself? im thinking about adding a mini muffler rather than a cat..what you think

 

Its a QTP exhaust cutoff valve, I got a set from my uncle that he didn't need anymore, but you just weld it inline. Adding a mini muffler would be good, im pretty sure that would be less restrictive..I rather stick with my cat just because im aware of the sound, and the mini muffler may be louder? maybe not sure, but didnt want to spend money on something that could be louder, and for me to switch it back with out with the cat.

Your setup looks good though, you have a resonator inline?

 

no resonator..if i go with mini muffler then i wont get the resonator.. resonator i thought was just for the drone sounds..

 

Its intended to reduce noises, in the exhaust system
