SM105K's SHO BIBLE/BUILDS/LIFE

You can also buy universal 2.5" 2 bolt exhaust flanges. Pretty easy to find on the googs

 

[FiveLeeter918]

I bought four sets of flanges. Two sets went on my custom resonator set up. One set when on my stock 3rd cat/stock resonator setup, and one set went on my stock cat back. It is all unbolt and rebolt. I can still utilize my stock emissions equipment if need.

I am also planning on having a x pipe built into my custom set up as well.

Very cool!

don't by chance have dimensions do you? wondering if the Vibrant flanges will work. Might need to get in the attic and mic my stock downpipes.

I can measure my stock set up later since it is just chilling in the garage on a shelf. It is the same dimensions as my modified one.

 

[FiveLeeter918]

actually got it already, looks like the Vibrant 2-bolt flanges will work great.

Good to hear.

 

[FiveLeeter918]

got them and the Magnaflow X-pipe ordered. Sounds like I'm gonna copy you this time haha.

Does PPE sell the exhaust flanges normally? I might want to try to replicate this...

Yes, I bought a set through them for my current exhaust mod...

I have the FRPP catback and I'm deleting the 3rd cat and resonator and installing a longer Borla resonator with a built in X-pipe with piping transitioning from 2.5" at the flanges back to 2.25" at the resonator

I picked up 24 ft lbs of tq, but I am boost limited. I ordered a noisemaker delete, but for the past week it has sat with a preshipping label from EPP. Either way, I need to threw my car back on the dyno with the extra spicy tune and new MSD coils.

Ortiz tune to compare? Ehh?

Did you ever do quad tips? Ordered my second set tonight, changed my mind after mocking up the first set.

 

[802SHO]

I really want 6" quad tips. Only thing I can find is 6" dual tips with a 5" inlet. And about $175 a piece so tips for $350? that will require some welding.....but after having 4" quad tips for a while now...seems too small.

Maybe...

I do have a set of quad tips however I didnt follow 802SHO's advice, and got a pair that were flush. You really need a pair that are staggered like his.

Yea I ordered these first, but with keeping the stock muffler location it would protrude out into the curve and just didn't look right...

Have these on their way now, should be here Friday but it looks like by measurements the contour will match up really well with our bumper curve.

Good call. I will have to buy another pair down the line and install them.
