New exhaust from Odula
 
Looks crazy with the twist and turns! Wonder what it does for performance...

Check out their website for the video clip. Definitely loud but seems very bassy.

jeez, thats a lot of turns, sharp ones at that. How come japanese companys make there exhausts look so complicated? Can you really increase power with adjust the way it bends or something, in this case it looks like they think it would.

XDEEDUBBX 06-30-2005 11:59 AM

i always thought the more bends the more restrictive?

Xyntax 06-30-2005 12:14 PM

They put platforms up front and huge ass wings on the rears too... is this exhaust really a surprise???

devious12 06-30-2005 12:34 PM

Holy restriction! There is no way that this exhaust is better than anything out there now. I can't see how so many bends would make this a good flowing exhaust. Anyone with more knowledge want to chime in at anytime?

It looks cool though.

instead of speculating why doesnt one of you email them and ask?

XDEEDUBBX 06-30-2005 12:40 PM

good point zoom

devious12 06-30-2005 12:51 PM

but do you really think they are going to say... "our exhaust looks nice and sounds nice, but the restriction is plenty and really doesn't improve the performance"? I'm not being a wise*** but they are trying to sell it.

Is there anyone that knows alot about exhaust designs on this forum?

nice find https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...=odula+exhaust

army_rx8 06-30-2005 01:13 PM

army_rx8 06-30-2005 01:14 PM

personaly i think they had a lot of extra pipe laying around adn their welder was bored . :D:D lol

zoom44 06-30-2005 01:16 PM

sure devious but at least get them to give their reasoning. it might just be a way to tune the sound after those small cans who knows? let them explain themselves

Rasputin 06-30-2005 01:22 PM

Not even nice smooth mandrel-bent bends, but what seems like steppedfabricated ones!!

Xyntax 06-30-2005 01:38 PM

For this one: Form > Function

Yeah your right we can give it shot and see what they have to say for themselves.

Has to be heavier with all that metal unless it is 100% titanium like those tips, the video sounds good.

djmano 07-01-2005 12:26 AM

i understand what you guys are saying about the excessive bends......but IMHO it is a work of art. it probably may only gain a few hp at most and give a better sound but it looks sexy as hell. kinda like those $5000 tubi exhaust systems for ferraris.

btw....anyone know the price on this one?

Does it show? I mean, doesn't it just tuck in behind the heat sheild like most after market 8 exhausts? Thus, work of art is meaningful in practical terms?

unless you were in video voyeur trying to look up girls skirts..haha

David_M 07-01-2005 04:37 PM

It looks like it's fully titanium. That would explain the welded bends getting a mandrel bend in Ti is grossly expensive.

I feel like getting a Super Pretzel all of a sudden.
