380RS also uses heat wrap on its entire exhaust

 

A 380RSC does (factory race car), a std 380RS uses nothing special as its a street car. And the RSC is raspier than anything you can imagine

 

 

right...and thats a 380RSC (full out race car) which bearns next to nothing in comparison to the 380RS (street car. 380RSC are insanely loud and raspy, the heat wrap is not for noise suppression

 

All I ever said was that the 380RS used heat wrap on their exhaust....like the OP

My bad if I forgot to put a "c" at the end [380RS"C"]... get the sand out of your panties

 

We all know that heat wrap isn't for noise suppression... but according to the OP's experience with the product, slight resonance reduction is a by product of the heat wrap with several coats of silicone sealant or whatever its called...

I am not stating a fact, I am just repeating what the OP has stated in this thread...

 

I've really enjoyed reading through this thread. Nice gains with the cams/headers. Although I don't have a Z, they'd definitely be on my list if/when I end up getting one.

I've considered wrapping my exhaust for some time on my bimmer. I may have to try this out and wrap it up to my rear resonator.

Good luck with the continued build!

 

Great gains Gabe!

 

Thanks, good gains but hefty price tag for the parts. In hindsight i should have saved money and jumped right into my current project. People are not lying when they say, "you'll want more", haha.

 

This is another ultra bump..

Does anybody know where I can find a 3" MAF housing like pictured above. also maybe the 3" samco tubes? I am having no luck via google

 

That member logged on today, maybe send him a PM or email and ask him where he got it?

 

Good find! Sent him a PM

 

Here you go, quick ebay search http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-0-76-2mm-O...-/251427569352

What size are the z1 silicon intakes?

 

yep i found those just a few mins ago. thanks

and i believe the z1 intakes are smaller, but i have found a few alternatives that may work.

also debating what size intakes would be best and not overkill for my HR. stock hr size is 60mm. i wonder if 3" would be enough and worth it, or if i should go larger.

 

I haven't read anything about an HR using twin full 3" intakes yet. I say be a pioneer and see what happens
GL!

 

Some pieces I have saved on ebay... still doing research though before i pull trigger

interesting!

do it!

 

I originally got both from Z1auto but i'm not sure if they are in business. I think the samco is pretty easy to find but the MAF housing can be purchased at GTM.

 

Can't find the samco tubes so i'll prob have to make a pipe work lol

This is the item, but the picture is just a generic one.
