i had heard that stainless steeel is not so good in NA car...it dissipate heat too fast and make the engine cold...thus we loss power when cold day...is it true?

QUOTE(rcracer @ Aug 4 2006, 12:48 AM) Changing extractor definately helps, it frees the engine up and gives better torque at low revs for a 4-2-1 config, just don't oversize the rest of the piping. But my Extractor is already 4-2-1...Er..Stock lar of coz.. I saw Hotbits extractor.. Not very exp..i think like rm300+.. But Dont know how good is the performance increase.. Heard of Powerzone extractors..but dont know where in Penang can I get it. And another concern for me is, Will the original heatshield be fixed back after I change extractor? Some have took it off coz it wudnt fit anymore as the extractor piping is a bit diffrent in length and curve. |

Its the reverse. Stainless steel releases heat slower and has a rather high heat capacity so the heat from the exhaust doesn't make the engine any hotter than it needs to be. |

Oh, If thats the case..what's the remedy? Buy those heat insulation wraps? Coz If left as it is, The engine bay can get quite hot rite? as the extractor is normallly very hot. |

Don't heat wrap your extractors, it kills them faster because it pushes the temp up close to material limits.Coz If left as it is, The engine bay can get quite hot rite? as the extractor is normallly very hot. |

See ya have a corolla SEG 1.6? THe meter looks aufully familiar doing 120km/h at below 3k is cool My wira har... 110km/h already 3.5k..kenot tahan.. What effect does changing the bullet have? Was recomended to change that if I want a 'cheap and good' performance increase in my car. If so, what size of a bullet to change to? |

Adding stuff like airfilter can reduce ur RPM at high speed?
I tought its the gearbox's settings? My dad's Corolla SEG pumps 3.5k rpm at 120km/h/ Then ur car shud be very fuel efficient? |

cat back exhaust means moving the cat all the way to the end of the exhaust pipes - which is also known as a straight-out setup or whatever you wish to call it. If you look underneath the car, you'll only see a straight pipe connecting from the exhaust manifold all the way to the muffler. That's a cat-back setup. No cats, mid boxes or bullets in the middle.
