Your cat is just below your exhaust manifold...... Just change the extractor and the cat's gone....

go check out the Mugen Twin Loop replicas... cheap and works well enough and pretty quiet with only a low bassy sound...

high flow NA engine izzit need to use big oval muffler s-flow(like oem wira muffler) or straight flow muffler (also oval n big type, almost same size with wira oem muffler) ?
if turbo engine sure need straight flow right? if NA with high flow engine how?
my car currently use 2' piping use ori route with oem rear muffler (no mid-bullet)..

hi sifus...once again wanna ask noob questions here,

im already done my exhaust mod but suprisingly im using extractor 4-1 (i thought 4-2-1) because many said its good for auto tranny like me. im using just plain campro auto,
AFAIK, im using 4-1, bullet with 'twister' and s-flow muffler

so far its ok while driving, FC improved of course but problem comes when try to overtaking, like there lagging/not gaining energy while stepping pedal..@@

they claimed 4-1 setup is ok for city driving because 4-2-1 more to highway/long distance driving.(?)

the workshop said theres some mistakes because im choosing twister type bullet rather than normal one(kosong inside like recomended) because pressure will not enough power to blow with twister system.(?)

anyone care to explain to me?
quite confusing..so try to find out here 1st.. smile.gif

tq

change to 4-2-1, 4-1 only suitable if u always drive at high RPM i.e over 4.5K RPM...

is the 'lag' only appear after u mod ur exhaust?, because normal campro is known to have slow response

thanks for suggestion biggrin.gif

lagging i meant is when i press pedal to overtake/sprint, i feel like the power cannot go through stuck until certain RPM (sry..my eye dint look at odometer on that time:( ) and then zoom like a force pushing me then during that i can feel the real power. AFAIK before mod, im not feeling this maybe different system?

but is it related with my swirl bullet?
workshop want to replace to normal one and if no affect, money back guarantee.
i thought auto trans. better use swirl?.

or maybe im wrong smile.gif

For waja1.6 using stock engine 4G18, I presume the best setup is using PowerZone 4-2-1 extractor.

Is there a good shop in KL for exhaust installation? Affordable and good work.

hi fellow gurus.

would wish to ask a question on my newly installed hotbits extractor + full exhaust system.

i drive a Kenari 1.0 manual.

i'm liking the performance gain pretty much but i only have 1 small issue.

at certain acceleration rate, i can hear somewhat a whistling sound to some extent.

i'm arguing between myself on whether that sound is normal or not.

the behavior is like this. the sound will be more prominent when i am at low RPM and then starts to accelerate at a fast rate (flooring quarter to half the paddle). it happens when shifting low gears (1st to 3rd gear).

but at anytime, once the RPM reaches for example 4.K and above, the sound disappears and the sound is back to normal. for high gears 4th and 5th, the sound will not be that prominent. and it will also not happen if i accelerate on a slow and normal pace, then shift at 3K RPM.

so i am assuming perhaps there are a few reasons:
1) exhaust leak
2) variation in exhaust pressure during acceleration causing the sound to happen at certain pressure level
3) reasons that i am not sure of, which is also partly why i posted this in the first place

how should i pin-point better where the problem is? i did my setup at speedworks workshop and actually i'm quite satisfied with the workmanship. installation was pretty solid and i would try not to attribute the problem to exhaust leak due to improper installation (at least i'll park that as last priority if all else fails).

so would kindly appreciate comments on this issue before i end up visiting the workshop again. thanks.

errm. should be from exhaust. at least that is what my ears are telling me tongue.gif

i mean literally winding down my window and closely hearing it while i perform different variations of acceleration and gear shifting sweat.gif
