Since a recent turbo upgrade, the growl I used to have with my exhaust has recently turned into a bumble bee. Does anyone know of any axle back exhaust that will bolt up to the B&B. Thanks in advance.

 

HOw are you gonna bolt a axel back onto a pre-existing catback? Are you cutting the muffler off of the cat back?

 

The axle back should still have a flange to bolt up to the remaining exaust. My cat back exhaust is still 2 piece. It uses the same hangers as stock so the bends in the exhaust are about the same. I dont know if the exhaust is really my problem or not for the change in tone from the turbo or if its the 3in O2 housing resonating through the pipes but I want to eliminate any possibilities.

 

I can tell you for a fact that the pipe between the cat and axle-back on the B&B exhaust is the same as the pipe on the Helix exhaust. How do I know? I switched from a B&B to Helix and had the pipes laying on the ground next to each other.... no discernable differences, if I hadn't already pulled the B&B mid-pipe off the car I would have just left it on and put the Helix axle-back on it. So if you can find a Helix rear section it should work for you.

Cool, thanks. Did you notice any difference in sound. Before I did the upgrade my exhaust was lower toned but after talking to TT they said it would be hard to find an exhaust that would give me back what I had due to the garret setup with the tubular manifold, 3in O2 housing, turbo etc. I may be replacing something that will have no effect on sound. I want to try that though. Just finding one that I can try before I buy would be great help.

 

Keep us updated as I have the B&B as well and with the addition of the AMS GT35r kit the car now sounds like a fart can honda off boost at low rpms.

 

All I can tell you is that the car is very loud compared to before, but not unbearable for me. Of course, I have a stock turbo with 272's so I can't tell you what it'd sound like with your setup.

WELCOME.

 

Once you add a turbo kit that will change everything.
