Looking to buy a testpipe, Q's!
Hey guys,
Recently installed my DC Sports system and i'm looking to add a testpipe. Looking at a few options but i'm not too sure what I should be buying. First off, the nearest tuner is a solid 7 or 8 hr drive for me down into the usa. So I do plan running the Cobb AP by next spring at the latest. If I was to run the Megan Testpipe, would I have a retardedly loud exhaust system (given there is no res or cat)? Would I throw a cel? and can I run Cobb's Stage II tune, requires 1 cat so i'm guessing no? Second option is to pay a little bit more money and buy an UR testpipe. But than there's mini muffler / resonator / hfc. Basically I want a testpipe that isn't too loud, is compatable with Cobb's Stage II and preferably does not throw any codes. Please help a new owner out! :beer: |
I think you should get the UR hfc (metal)
I'm gonna get that. Also, me and another Evo x are driving up to buschur to get tune sept 16. If you want, come with us :) |

I'm using the UR resonated test pipe and have had no CELs related to it. Also, not very loud with stock catback setup.

I have the DC sport catback and the ultimate racing test pipe. The car is a bit loud, but not obnoxious. Also, boost makes the exhaust just roar :) It sounds simply amazing. The test tipe came with an extended O2 sensor bung. As a result i have not thrown any codes. As for the tune i am not sure as i am running the GST map. Where in canada are you from? If its anywhere near edmonton i could let you hear it.

What UR Testpipe did you go with? hfc? resonator? straight? Any issues running with the GST basemap?! |
Hey Zebra I am in Edmonton and would like to hear your car. As videos on youtube never ever do any sounds justice. After a couple small mods I wanted to just to HFC or Test Pipe and stock exhaust. That's when I can afford the tuning that goes with it heh. Maybe we can hook a time and place. I am not in town this weekend. But I will be there next weekend. I think I am loading my GST 93 Map then also. Gonna order the boost pill and filter here right away.

I think i'm going to give the Tsudo Evo X Test Pipe a shot.
It's got a resonator and cel fix and is $129 w/ free shipping at erz performance. |
Do you have a link for this test pipe? It's really not expensive!
|
Speed Element beat their price and did it for $109 shipped!
