I got the TurboXS complete race exhaust recently and can vouch for the loudness. It is very loud and not legal for everyday use. There is a definite increase in power especially above 7,000rpm. I have also fitted an OBX exhaust header, (cheap at $200). The OBX header is not a good fitment for my car but my mechanic went ahead and fitted it anyhow. I will remove the OBX header when I am next adding other mods.
The TurboXS exhaust is of superb build quality and for track days etc it is a very good investement.
The ground clearance with my Tein SuperStreet coilovers lowered 1/2'' (12mm) and a full tank of gas is about 3.75 inches. I have only scraped the exhaust coupling on speed bumps when carrying passengers or simply going too fast.

 

Did you have any exhaust leaks? I have read that it's been a problem for some.

 

Exhaust leaks are associated with fitting the catback to the OEM midpipe/cat. The 3'' to 2.5'' connection can be difficult to seal properly. Mine does not leak as I have replaced all the exhaust system which is 3'' from the exhaust header to the tailpipes.

 

i just ordered it earlier today im excited, does it not quiet down alot after a week or two? also does it not come supplied with silencers?

 

It does quiet down alot.

I want to order it but I havent gotten an e-mail back yet...... How did you guys order it, by calling?

 

I called them because I did not want to wait. Email is too slow.

 

This is a link to a video of the full race exhaust system (CATless). The exhaust has about 750 miles driving on it at that time. I do have a CEL and have not succeeded in eliminating it. I have tried the different O2 spacers but still got the CEL.

I forget to mention that you need to turn up the volume on your PC's sound system and I hope you have a good subwoofer, that is really the only way you will hear it as it really is.

 

i emailed jermaine that posted here with that info, he replied last week but hes gone for a few days so i called it in and talked to them about it and i told them what he had quoted me, and asked about the free mid pipe

EDIT: last friday he said he only had 10 units left, then i ordered monday so i dunno how many other ppl have ordred since then

 

Does anyone have any dyno results? what is turboXS even claiming as an increase? any new news on whether they still have free midpipes?

 

like i said i ordered mine yesterday, so you still might be in luck just call them, as for the dyno http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/i...xsrx8dyno2.jpg

 

I guess Ill just call them tomorrow

 

I have responded to all emails I have recieved. If you think I am missing your email, give me a call we can take care of you on the phone. These full exhaust systems are flying off the shelves.

oh yeah, I am ordering this thing, I just heard one on a black 8 today, completely eclipsed my flowmaster, made me sound like a fart can, while his sounded like a race car, I am so getting this, flowmaster can eat my shorts, I am putting mine for sale the moment I get the TXS.

 

i ordered mine yesterday! but i have a quick question about the silencers. How are they removed? is it a quick 5 min process? screwdriver?

 

^^^ I believe so

 

The tailpipe silencers are removed with an Allen wrench and spanner. Quick and simple.

 

Received mine yeasterday, very nice

 

Macius8,
When did you order?

 

Friday afternoon.

 

damn it sucks being on the west coast. I ordered thursday, but its delivery is due monday :'(
But then again, I dont have time to nstall it until wed.

 

If u think it sux on the west coast of USA , u should try the west coast of Europe. its the ******* of nowhere. LoL

 

OK, we just installed one a few hours ago with the midpipe. It's definitely louder, but not any louder than any of the other aftermarket exhausts. And the tips: What the F are you guys talking about? The tips are perfect. They're the closest-to-stock pieces out there. you guys really want stupid-*** 6" tips, thats fine. But you guys out there complaining that the true performance exhaust system won't allow you to stick your head in the tailpipe better pull their head OUT of their tailpipe.

 

uh,

not tip width, but depth.

beers

 

has anyone had melting shroud issues with the tips resessed so far back?

 

I'm going to have a little extension pipe put on mine. How much further back do they need to go?
