TSR Exhaust

[Guest Bjcnz]

I know this has been probably asked a 1000 times, but I'm providing a link so its different :-D

Do you think this would go well with a TSR? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts-accessories/Subaru/Accessories/auction-231338760.htm

Thanks!

Well it will fit. Will probably sound rumbly too.

[Guest]

it'll fit, and sound shweet

just be careful cause ive got a 2.5" on my tsr and its over the limit without my silencer, but i like it that way

Lol aahh, I see hmmm, I was hoping I'd get a nice rumble but not be too loud haha. I'm tempted to buy it though, cause its pretty cheap. Where did you get the silencer from?

I would imagine that would be bloody loud on a TSR. 3.5" piping is rather excessive for a 2.0 NA... Been told it will reduce low down torque too.. 2.5" is supposed to be best

Yeah I would imagine it would reduce low down torque. Humph, it looked soo good and was cheap too. Back to square one

[Guest keltik]

I lost 8kw atw on a 3liter with a straight through muffler. I wouldnt worry about the torque problem as much as it being irritatingly loud. Anything over 2.5inch tends to be noisy in the cabin too

8kw

Yeah droning at 100kmh in 5th gear is what you really dont want. You could always get a muffler like that welded to your normal 2'' piping. Should give a bit more purr without the noise

Yeah thats kinda what I was thinking about :-D but wasn't too sure if that would work well?

[Guest]

i got mine as a package deal from uniweld here in chch, cheap az chips cause it was damaged stock

3.5 diff back shouldnt be to bad would it? leaving all cats etc in?

[Guest Bjcnz]

Hmmm, I wonder if I should just bite the bullet and buy it

[pl0x]

mhm i was thinking less $$ for a trial of what you mite want, but wouldnt that + standard rest sound the goods?

saves you alot of time pissing round fitting etc or paying someone to fit, just bolt it up... sell it on if you dont like it

[Guest Bjcnz]

Well thats what I was thinking about, if I got it for $100, its cheap enough to try it out

[Guest Bjcnz]

Well I've organised to buy it off the guy for $110 to try it out, if it doesn't work great I'll just sell it on

Let us know how you get on...

I had a 2.0NA with similar exhaust - DRONE DRONE DRONE all the way home

[kamineko]

TSR has the quadcam engine. noice. i performed the snorklectomy and had crowesport CHCH fit straight extractors with no cat. loose a small amount of torque due to no intake reservoir but pulled hard to the redline ;D

i miss it sometimes but now i have boost

[subaru-mania]

iv got a 91 legacy single turbo i have 3 inch straight from turbo to back its kinda load =p

[Guest Bjcnz]

Well I've bought it, and fitted it yesterday! Sounds the part too! Was a Biarch to get it off though, had to angle grind the bolts off lol, corrosion is a pain. Took 30 seconds to fit it though once the old one was off! Will post pics later and maybe a video of sound

[Jord]

Yea had to take to the bolts with an angle grinder when replacing the exhaust on my tsr Not easy while lying on your back

[Guest Bjcnz]

haha, I thought it was harder pulling the old one off the rubber mounts, though once you get the technique its fairly easy. Have you got a TSR?

[Jord]

Used to have a 96 TSR... Sold it and bought a B4 ;D Still have a TS as a work car though

[Guest Bjcnz]

Excuse the mobile phone pictures! All I had access too while I was under the car
