4" Turbo Back Exhaust

With all the fast EVO's that everyone is building we were wondering if there would be an interest for larger exhaust systems. We have built a couple different custom systems with good results, but we are not debating putting these into our product line.



We were thinking about building a 4"Mandrel bent turbo back w/Magnaflow muffler. I would be completely polished stainless steel so it would look sweet. This would be for high HP street cars with Big Turbos/Nitrous, etc. This is really popular mod for big hp Honda street class cars. It the street class you are required to run a full exhaust with a muffler out the rear. The cool part is that you can still run this system on the street an you can hear the turbo at idle.


It would also be resonably priced for you guys. Let me know if you anyone would be interested in something like this.

It would be Magnaflow muffler for sound quality/availability/looks/price, etc


We could use a Burns Stainless muffler if you would perfer something lighter, but it cost more.

Wow, 4"? Do you personally think it's needed? Just making conversation but in our testing here using a good 3" on 600+ whp EVO's we've seen no gain in HP at all by completely eliminating the exhaust all together. Have you found something different?

I had some other things to comment but won't highjack this thread of yours. Am curious if you really think it's needed.

It's all relative at what point you would want this. I know it will fit the EVO because we have a 4"Turbo Back on my car right now. It sounds so good it's unreal.

good point... however, we always want more! I'm sure you'd sell them. Probably more to the people who don't need them...
