I love how people bash on such simple parts, like exhausts. If it fits, and it of the proper materials, dia, and gets the job done. there really isnt too much to fuck up on a simple exhaust system.

BUT, I see they used 2 bolt clamps. which are prone to leaks, big time. so watch out for that.

Also VTA. I saw that and was like WTF is that, some Evoh computer system shit on the car? I didnt even know what it meant. Why not just type vent to atmosphere?

Any MAF based forced induction car, without being tuned properly for it, HATE when you take a diverter valve thats normally recirculated through the intake and dump it to the atmosphere. The ECU knows how much air to expect coming back into the intake when throttle is lifted and the DV opened. If that air is MIA then it gets rich, pisses off the ecu, could put you in limp mode, etc. it all depends on how the car is tuned.

The VW motors are like that, ricers put “VTA” bov’s on and the ecu gets pissed, and the car runs like a bag of smashed assholes.

short story, if the ecu wants it recirculated. dont vent it to atmosphere.

put a stiff enough spring in it so its closed at idle and all is well 🙂

i’ve got a TiAL Q 50mm BOV and the maf is still on the car and all is well, partial throttle is a bit finicky… i have the 11psi spring in it fwiw…

i personally would have went for a single exhaust to save weight, but that’s me. how much less does teh exhaust weigh compared to stock?

You of all people should know…that’s what people do on Shift. They talk smack about everyone’s car. Those that talk smack usually have cars that they think are the prime example of automotive nirvana.

Nice ride man…do whatever you like to your ride and enjoy it!
