Default EXHAUST Question

Hello gentlemen, thinking of getting an exhaust and have a question for those who have used the T1R 63 Dual Sparrow exhaust on sale now at Speed Star. I would also like to have a listen to the 70mm as well

#1 - Loudness- anyone in the Brampton / Miss area that I could have a listen to?
#2 - Does this cause any CEL crap?
#3 - Any Drone?
#4 - Any regrets and if so what are they?
#5 - Did you Dyno yourself and if so any power loss / gain?

Thanks a million

1. 63 will be quiter then 70
2. If you get a test pipe
3. A bit with 63, more with 70
4. I'll let you know in a month
5. You will gain hp with all t1r exhausts

you're welcome 99,999

Than you Dominator for the quick response. Loudness can be very subjective and really wanted to hear before I buy. dont want to get the 63 though if I can still hear my engine much louder than my exhaust as the case with my stock exhaust now. I also dont want to get a 70 if it is going to be too loud for my liking. I hope there sale is for a while still.

If I can show up to the Diff fluid change, I should have my exhaust on, 70mm Sparrow v2

Where are you located?

I've owned the 63mm before

#1 - Very Loud
#2 - Not if you run your cat
#3 - Some
#4 - Not really, just too loud.
#5 - There is HP gain of around 10 hp if you run a testpipe.

The 63mm is too loud for most people I have met. If you don;t run a silencer, you are asking for ear damage after a while .

if the testpipe has a bung will you still throw a cel code?
also, does having a cel on change anything on the car?

Having a CEL doesn't really do any harm. Some just find it annoying.

The Testpipe bung rattles sometimes. Again, some find it annoying.

I just installed a Comptech exhaust last night. If you come to the group diff change you can hear it. Very quiet. I love it.
