Good Read, and that reminds me that some wrap their extractor to keep them hot for faster release of the exhaust gas.....

Do an ECU check. If O2 sensor damaged/not working should show.....

Talking about silent mufflers, IF i would to leave everything stock in front of the OEM Mufflers, then change it to a S-flow or something like an S-flow (which is quietest?), i can expect nearly no diff in sound?
*
OE mufflers are real quiet one. Even S flow will be more noisy.....

What is the cost of doing the checking and can it detect a faulty MAF also or not? Do you know what is the price of a new O2 sensor, need to standby $$$.
*
Sorry, do not know the prices, but as far as I know some workshop will scan free for you if they do the repairs.
Of course if you just go for scan they will charge.....Scanning the ECU, all faults that can be detected by the ECU will show.

S-flow is noisier than OEM ones for sure
But for cruising and all, close to no sound for S-flows as well, so yeah no worries ^^
*
Even my noisy exhaust when cruising is not bad, but slight acceleration the low bass sound will come

well...getting the pipe size correct is one thing.. dont la go put 3" pipes on ur 1.5 laugh.gif

alot of diff factors from pipe size... pipe bends, type of bends, muffler, centre box/bullet... amount of centre box, bullet etc could contribute to it.

best to find another car which has the same engine and find out if their exhaust setup has benefitted them

3" for 1.5L, my 2.0 turbo also on 2.5" only...... blush.gif

If changing only rear muffler to straight through, should not affect low and mid, but high will improve.

Lolx... I have posted wrong topic about the wiper here ady~ Paiseh >< Hmmm... the outlet of muffler means the hole of the muffler? But if the inlet not same size as the pipe...then how?
*
Outlet no difference whether big or small for the muffler. If inlet and pipe is off different size they have to expand one side and make the other side smaller to match then weld....

Can teach me how to check whether exhaust got leaking or not?
*
Depends where? Normally large hole can hear already. Smaller leaks some test by feel as you can actually feel it coming out in a stream of strong air.....

however, i have 2 questions to seek sifu wisdom:
1) after the extractor mod, need i change the rest too? (a full set up on another car yields only 2 more hp with mid -> rear pipes and mufflers changed)
2) anyhow to silent the extractor sound? wrapping or coating?
*
Doing the rest is for higher end results and faster removal of exhaust from the whole system.

Extractor also noisy? Can try thermal wrap.....

Oh! after whole system done up, less speed? But usually at top end, fully open is best, unless engine not enough power, probably need to change back something.....Seems another member in ZTH had the same problem.....

You mention only with extractor you could hit 200kmh, but after whole system only 185kmh, so with full system is slower.
Probably the mid or rear box robbing it's power....

familiar issue with my Civic FD1. Previous top speed 210kmj, after some other mod, mid range increase but top died at 185kmj. The air filter/air sensor is the culprit.

Just sharing, as the air/oxygen sensor is related to exhaust system.

So, what did you do?

Can also look for the pressure activate valve muffler like the one in the FD2R. Low end works as normal muffler, and when pressure is high it opens and works like straight through muffler.....

stock materials are either cast iron (mostly) or steel. the main reason why stock extractors wont heat up the engine bay so much is coz they have heatshields on them... u will rarely see a bare stock extractor (unless pureposely removed which imho, is stupid as it works well and even looks better... stock extractors are fugly...)

aftermarket extractors wont be able to fit under those heatshields and hence are usually exposed and will dissipate the heat freely into the engine bay...so either ceramic coat (expensive) it or thermal wrap (cheap) it if ur worried.

but if u put a bare cast iron header vs steel header.. the difference in heat is negligible in regards to engine bay heat....

Exactly, original is cast iron and is very heavy...... sad.gif

Now, I know you are very new....ha! ha! The hose link is for use in cold countries, where the air intake is switch to draw hot air from the exhaust......
Here we try as much as possible to draw cold air, as we call CIA...... blush.gif

Added on December 8, 2011, 1:19 amCeramic coat the extractor or thermal wrap the extractor is better? And normally for  ceramic, what is the price?

I thought you can only get license at 17? How come you already have it for 2 years already?

Price I don't know but have seen many with thermal wrap. Maybe ceramic more expensive or maybe new.... blush.gif

My turbo max at 190kmh only. I was given a speed cut device by my friend but I refuse to fit it as 190kmh already fast enough. Whoever wants to overtake, please do so......anyway, I very seldom hit that speed, every where also jam nowadays, so is better to have pick up speed for town driving....

bro eventhough you limit your car at 190kmh, i'm sure that you can outrun cars anytime you want to.. because of your 'siput sedut' there tongue.gif
as for my NA car, AT some more, i need slightly higher top end to do so, i suppose..
Yup, that is why I mention I rather have the low end pick up rather then high speed. Nowadays hardly have road to hit that speed....
