Yes, but the test pipe is just a drilled out stock cat

 

[QUOTE=kirk@WORKS]

If you are planning to run a HFC or a resonated test pipe you will need the ABM.
I currently run the complete WORKS (3 inch) 76mm system w/ the WORKS HFC and ABM.

That't the setup I'm planning to get eventially, so if you could get a sound clip, then it would be much apreciated.

 

Just get the AB. Sounds mad as He!!, like a race car.

 

Nice

 

Any update?

 

I have the ABM ONLY with everything else stock, I picked up a number of whp, and it's not that bad sound wise. . .around town it's hardly noticeable, when I get on it, it's there, and hwy drone is non-existent. . .Now if I were to the the O2Housing+DP+IP, it would be LOUD as hell. . .but after looking at the stock exhaust, I realized the real restriction is the stock muffler, it REALLY slows the exhaust velocity down at higher rpms, so I kept the stock ID (2.5") which opens to the WORKs ABM (3"ID), and get the sort of best of both worlds. . .I don't think I justify the loudness for another 10-15whp. . .flash+cams are more worth it in that case. . .I could post a vid of my setup if you'd like. . .

 

Suneil if you can post it for me man, Ive been debateing on this for a while now.

If the name rings a bell CEG

 

shiv please post a vid of that setup, im waiting to order the EXACT same thing!!

how badass is that slash cut abm!

 

haha, Okay guys, will do for sure. . .I'll post a vid somehow. . .someway, it'll be sexy. . .it's well worth it. . .next in line for me will probably be o2, dp, a flash, and that should put me at 280ish. . .

 

cool, thanks...

im thinking of going with WORKS for my full TBE (ceramic dp, high flow cat, ip and ABM) and id like to hear what it sounds like!

 

I have an 06 IX MR too and I like to hear it your Work's exhaust system setup.

 

A video/sound clip of the abm would be helpful. Thanks

 

Sounds nice!

 

Hey guys, finally got around to taking videos (large ones!) and uploading them onto my site. . .
My setup is in the signature, but in case you're too lazy, I have the WORKS ABM and Hiflow air filter, got it for around $400??

I dynoed with these mods about 10-15whp above a stock EVO, so these are true gains.

It's not very loud at all, I took an interior shot dirivng around town and then revving at a stop sign:
ABM interior

Then I went to a secluded area and videotaped the ABM from the side of the street, as if you were walking by:
Walking by

Then finally I decided to let y'all know what it sounds like from behind, which is where most cars find themselves after I've burned them:
From the rear

THey are all relatively large, so if you want to play them over and over, please right click save as!

For $400, the package does deliver some goods for sure, I just wanted a more aggressive exhaust, a quicker spool, and of course some power.

Obviously getting a flash for $175 would be the best bang for your buck, but at least with this performance package, you WON'T be voiding your warranty.

Enjoy!

 

So when I was looking at that video (walking by), I noticed how RICH my setup is (factory of course) and realized I never posted my dyno plots, so here y'all go



Notice how rich it is up top, and how pathetically my boost drops off after 5k rpm. . .there is a LOT of power to be had here. . .
