have a AT rx-8...
wanted to change my exhuast system...
can someone enlighten me about the pros and cons abt the two exhuast above?
in term of sound and performance...

 

Consider the AutoEXE exhaust too... a few of us have them on the backorder with Monster Garage... nice bassy note without being too offensive to the neighbours. There's supposedly gains on the low-end torque too...

 

Trust has a big nice titanium tip

 

ya its nice. but dunno how the sound sounds like.

 

thanks for your information bro. will be going down to monster garage to check it out

 

please update us, how much ur pocket damage... ok....??

 

The best value, that is yen price in Sgd dlrs has to be the Trust ti extreme from Gan Motorsport.

Jap retail Yen 155,000 selling at SGD 1900 or $1952.50 including LTA inspection fee. Even u get interbank JPY/SGD rate at 1.3895 also shld cost SGd 2150!!

I am talking abt price/value and nothing abt performance etc etc.

Just for info. BTW I like the nice titanium tip hehehe and the total weight saving. Seems like not only the tip is titanium but I dont read Japanese.

 

haha ya not only the tip. the whole pipe is titanium i think. cause its super light when i hold it. can carry it with one hand. hee hee

 

So u decide liao issit??

 

Do you guys know that if I bought it at Sg then bring it back to Mal, can i avoid the LTA inspection fee??

 

The autoexe exhaust is designed to improve the low-end to the middle end torque of the car. Maybe gfoo may be able to explain more on this since he is the end-user oredi. Autoexe exhaust is rather silent, bass note will only come out from mid range onwards.

The re amemiya exhaust also performs the same function. Improve low end and mid end. Sounds slightly sweeter and compliments the rotary sound.

Both are suitable for 4AT. The Knight sports ones is solely design for the 6MT, same as the fujitsubo, hks, and some others in the mkt.

 

Hi Ivan,

When will ya next batch of AT exhaust come in? Or you have any in stock at the moment?

 

i have re amemiya and autoexe next round, both suitable for auto. Cun go wrong with rotary brands...

shld be in next month. Stock for the moment is only for 6MT. THe knight sports one.

 

what RE Amemiya items do u have in stock?

 

hi bro, that day saw gfoo autoex, v.impressive!
mine's 6MT, which one u recommend? KS or RE? do they come with LTA approve?

 

KS is oredi LTA compliant, both autoexe and RE are in process.

All three are suitable and good for 6MT. U want it urgent, i have the knight sports one now.

 

hi can update me. when your stock arrive.

 

After zhnging auto cars throughout the years, finding an exhaust that doesn't rob low-end is very challenging. The Autoexe is great, improves low end some more - think there's something to do with balancing backpressure.

Initially when installed new, Autoexe seemed quiet, but now that it's broken in (and especially after driving a while or after car warm up from cold start), there's this low growl on idle, not especially loud, but a nice mature sound.

When revving, sound definitely gets louder, but you don't get the shrill screamers like other exhaust. It goes from baritone when idle, to a tenor in high revs. You won't wake up the neighbours, but if you drive past pple at say 3krpm, cfm they sure turn heads to see where sound comes from.

 

Seems like its possible to form a Choir with stock exhausts and mod ones... Soprano, Alto , Tenor , Bass. The Autoexe exhausts, from your descriptions should fall in the Alto faction?

 

lol...More like Tenor with a sore throat...... low but not loud

 

am quite keen on the KS & RE ones..havent seen d KS one, hope to see it!

 

I am running on the Trust Titanium exhaust....instantly u will get 3 hp gain fron the weight loss....stock exhaust 18kg....Trust exhaust 6.5kg........
Bassy sound...sounded similar to V version engine....
Once the exhaust is fully heated up... the whole exdhaust including the down pipe will turn FULL PURPLE..........FREAKING COOL.....
THE best part is i can rev as loud as i want and the TP can't do anything abt it....hehehe
The exhaust works after 3500rpm.....you will need a racing or high flow cat to feel the full potential .......(this implies to most exhaust too)......

 

Is it good for AT? or just for MT?

 

wah sounds exciting! hey take a pic to see ur purple xos okie?

 

i am riding an AT spec.....come to the meet ...show u the real thing...
