I ditched my OE header and Exotic Speed midpipe for Racing Beat Header and Mid Pipe...best decision ever.

First off, this install was a total PIA...but was more then worth the aggravation...on to pics and video.

Work Area...lol


RB Packaging is awesome


Header


RB Quality


Exotic Speed Mid pipe, OE Header, RB Header, RB Dual Resonated Mid pipe


On to the video:
Revving and Drive Bys

 

RB header is pretty. Sounds great w/single output exhaust. Is it louder or no running one exhaust output?

 

glad you got it on, i assume nothing went wrong (unusual for you haha)

 

Nice.

Thats the setup Im shooting for, well either RB DR or BHR midpipe. Sounds awesome

 

Looks good, can not wait to hear it on the dyno

 

Crazy loud! nice TRUE drive by's! by vid, its hard to tell. but is it really raspy all through the rpms's or does it just pure scream

 

Ty! Single is always louder than dual.

No sir, one bolt is busted on the header...but there is no leak...go figure lol

It is freaking awesome, you can really hear the engine @ high rpms.

I will be throwing MASSIVE flames, no doubt.

If you think that was loud...you didn't hear my old setup with the Exotic Speed mid pipe. My 8 sounded like a street bike.

 

The one part in the vid, you can really hear you before you come around the corner, and then wham there you are! hauling *** around the corner.

 

It sounds really tame when not WOT. I think it was around 3:15 of the vid it sounded as though you were just cruising, or were you off the gas totally?

 

I was cruising. This setup is really solid. under 4k and regular driving, you hear the intake over the exhaust. after 5k you hear intake + exhaust. then around 6.5k its all engine through the exhaust.

 

nice video francesco

 

Is there a noticeable power gain with the full exhaust over stock, or has it been to long since you were stock to judge?

 

Thx Carlos!

Mid-range torque is much stronger now. There is a definite gain vs stock. Plus I now have practically every bolt-on NA part...so I'm sure that helps as well .

 

Nice video bro, congrates on an awesome setup francesco....

 

What Kind of camera do you have?

Also why did you choose single over duel??

 

Thx Omar!

Samsung HMX-H106. I chose single for the weigh savings. My whole exhaust setup is just under 60lbs. Racing Beat header + Midpipe is 40lbs and the HKS is under 20lbs.

 

I wish you could get a sound like that with a dual exhaust.
Love the sound, just dont like the looks :/

 

Sounds good!

 

LOL I could hear you haulin' *** long before you were in view of the camera lens so I'm guessing this setup is really loud! Also, how long was the actual drive time of the trip you posted in time lapse? And the 2 times you stopped and looked under the hood what were you looking for? Certainly you werent adding oil both times?

 

Yea single exist does look off...but the sound is just right.

Thanks man!

Well, remember most of that video was at WOT. My old setup was really really loud, but this is much better. It only gets loud as you wind past 6k. I am really really pleased with this setup.

For the time lapse...it was a 4 hour drive one way. I topped my oil x2 and x1 was to show off my GTSPEC bracing.

 

Way to capture the overall sound. Nice vid.

 

thats probably the best set up there is out there, so you don't have the air pump anymore??? any benefits from that?? just being curious.

 

I love that sound ! Saw the vid the other day. Faaakkin' awesome !

 

I tried to get as many vantage points as possible. Cruising, moderate acceleration, and WOT.

And you helped! I'm sure it would sound pretty damn good with my old SP2. Yeap I took the airpump out because it was whining and I don't need it since I'm catless.

Thank you, Thank you.

I will say this much, with premixing...and this setup...I'm shooting a lot of flames. Like...A LOT of flames.

 

You dont have a tune do you, either Racing Beat or Access Port?
