Would like some help...
Hey everyone i want to buy the Racing beat exhaust or there light weight flywheel, can only afford one right no,w performance wise which one is better?
|
performance wise the exhaust isn't going to do anything for you
|
The racing beat exhaust is nice and adds a better look to the back of the car and a little deeper sound but no exhaust system on this car will give you a large HP gain. The racing beat exhaust is actually a little heavier than the stick exhaust.
I have read people are happy with changing the flywheel. But none of these are going to help with power alot. You would be better off spending your $$ on suspension or keping it in the bank if you are looking for a power increase. |
If you're going to do the flywheel, you should think about doing the clutch since you, or the mechanic will already be down there. It will save you a lot of money/time down the road.

I drove an 8 with a lightweight fly wheel..it revved to the moon fast. I'd do that over an exhaust
|
Just realize that in changing out the flywheel, you are talking about dropping the tranny. That is a good $500-$600 in labor costs unless you can do it youself. With the exhaust (which I agree will give you little if any performance gains, but sounds & looks awesome) is about 1 hour at a muffler shop (about $50).
|
AND...a flywheel won't help the car go any faster - just accelerate a bit quicker in the lower gears (1-3) - by 3rd gear, any gains won't be measurable.
The exhaust is good - except it's WAY too quiet...but doesn't drone. Looks sharp, too - to me, a larger exhaust (tips) makes the car look more 'serious' - rather than the very crappy-looking OEM parts. :) |
if u get a exhaust try to get a cat delete pipe for high flow cat pipe then u will see a good increase in power
|
Thanks guys I appreciate all the feedback.... looks like im leaning towards the exhaust since the flywheel is gonna cost so much with labor...
|
idk what your looking for in a exhaust but i just got the turboxs one which isnt released. The hp gains were pretty good and i like the sound. look at the thread below this one for the discussion about it.
