exhaust qurstion

[Xtant12]

Does anyone know how hard it would be to get the pace setters and run the true duel exhaust on our GP's. Would you gain that much more power?? Has anyone done this yet??

You can do it, MJ at FairMuffler wanted to do that to mine... but i didn't have the cash to buy headers and have the custom work done. It would sound really nice, well alot better than the single style...

how much did he want to charge you for the custom work?

I highly doubt that. The headers are not equal length. Too much wiring. Your adding weight. Plus maybe the best you could do is a 2.25 pipe for each side. A single 3" will outflow it. Little to no gains (even in sound) will be had IMO.

wrong, MJ figured out exactly how to make the pipes fit buy cutting the crossover and having the pipes go down side by side, and correct all you can do is 2.25 piping... but it will outflow the 3" anyday. He wants about $400 to do it.

I had worked with MJ on doing this before. As much as i would love to suggest this, it will not work.
We were never able to get around the o2. The only possible way is to locate the sensor is an X-pipe and it would be too far away from the motor and not read properly. On top of that it would be adding more weight then a single 3" system.
basicly it can be done but will not work right.

thats wierd... you and V told me before it was doable not a problem putting the 02 on the xpipe.. because it was about the same spot as the U-bend would be, now its bad reading?

 

[Sinister Drag Designs]

With where we had originaly planned to put the x-pipe it would of worked ...in theory. putting it on an actual car would require the x section to be put to far back. This is why MJ has never had it on a running car. Unless MJ has come up with a new design im unaware of.

It would be nice to have the option but untill we figure a way to add an addtional o2 to the PCM i dont see this being possible. I do have to give it to MJ for coming up with the x-pipe idea tho.
His idea was to use stock manifolds as well. For what it would cost in o2 sensors, and the fact that its based around manifolds, a header setup would be a better gain for the cost.
ive posted about this on the other forums in the past few months

No good sir. You are incorrect. You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

A single 3" will outflow and have a better response then tual 2.25 pipes.

?

now whos the weakest link? :lolsign:

 

[Fish]

Definatly not I. Id have $400 in my pocket cause I dont want to waste money on a fad that will gain me nothing in the 1/4.

lol, which are you talking about, the exhaust or the projector headlights!!!

 

[Fish]

Either. However, Regal>GP headlights. My Regal with halogens was better then my GP with HIDs. HIDs in the Regal is tits.
