Default Custom Turbo Exhaust... Pics Inside

The exhaust of the car runs 3" turbo back, no cats. The external wastegates are running open dump tubes not routed back to the exhaust. The canister is the HKS Carbon/Ti muffler, 3" inlet. The bumper has been filled on the passenger side to complete the look...

From the Y--pipe back, there is only a 15 degree and then a 5 degree bend at the canister... its pretty straight.

Is that the titanium/cf exhaust from HKS?

I like it... but I want two, and hope that it goes in straight.

What shop are you using? To run the exhaust? And are you saying you have a turbo installed? What turbo, etc.?

Maybe I'm out of the loop, but "The external wastegates are running open dump tubes not routed back to the exhaust." .. Wastegate = Turbo. And the S at gate(s) makes me wonder.. TWIN TURBO!?? Am I out of the loop and everyone knows it turbo..or am I first to notice?

If you do a search on Michael's screen name you will find all the info that he has posted so far. There is a link in one of them to a thread on a Honda board with more pics.

WHAT! I KNEW IT! IT HAD TO BE YOUR CAR!!!!!

OMG... where the heck where you while I was taking snapshots of your car!?!?!?!? [kicks the bucket]

Agg.. two things. I didn't notice the exhaust type and your username bucuase I was too busy drooling over the pix. :-P

That black box thing on the passenger area is annoying. It's the culprit for all the chirp-like squeaking noise. I don't know how to tighten it down.

Take a look at this picture to see if you can get any ideas. I'd really like to have dual HKS someday despite the cash I'll be burning... :-/ http://www.i-m-racing.com/sogrevoduex3.html

those canisters are a lot shorter than the hks.. also, i hate those 90 degree bends companies are using to get a true dual exhaust.
less bends=better flow=happy turbines.
