Default greddy tic single

I was debating on whether to go with HKS Hi-power or Greddy Tic. I decided to go with the greddy. wow. im in love with this exhaust. I had a invidia and tusdo duals and this makes world of a difference. My past exhausts had unbearable drone in every rpm. but the ride with the tic is a lot quieter than i had expected. Ive read that singles are a lot louder than duals, but not this one. Accelerating is a tad louder than duals, but when cruising its a lot quieter. also, there isn't much drone either. there is quite some cabin noise, but not at a pitch to make you go crazy. Under vtec its just pure joy.

I had the Greddy tic single before my current Apexi single. I thought it was a bit loud b/c my ears would plug up sometimes from the sound. Still a very nice exhaust and one of the best performance wise. I'm sticking with my Apexi for now b/c its a perfect balance for me.

do you happen to know the weight of the tic? i heard it was around 15lbs?? was curious.

also not that it matters now, but I've been looking for dyno sheets. how much power are people gaining from this?

Did you buy it new? I would make sure to check to see if the silencer is still in the exhaust. When new they are already fitted inside. Beware with a test pipe it is LOUD! mine sets off car alarms of vehicles even when im out side the parking garage

You need to just adjust the mount point for the hanger until its taught. That's all I can tell you. I adjusted mine twice and then never had a problem.

Adjust with the diff mount hanger that comes with the exhaust.

It should have come with a small metal hanger that attaches to one of the bolts on the differential. You need to pull the pipe to the center of the car a little bit and tighten that one to keep it from hitting the bar.
