Jared has it down, its staying clean and oem. the only kit i would put on it was the oem factory aero option if i can every find one in good contition that wont cost me $800 for just the front bar lol.

Also really keen on making up a costom fab exhause system made to me specs. 3inch into a split twin 2 inch system that run side by side giving and extra inch of clearence that will then run into a bend that will have the hi flow cat mount up in a slight hollow in the body then bend back down and out into another twin section to a muffler and then about 1-2 feet of twin straight pipes out the back.

Leaving the exhaust still at a streetable noise level but looking phat and sitting tucked up nicley agains the body.

3 inch is a pretty large exhaust for a NA car.Lots of times cars will actually perform better with a 2.5" or 2.25" exhaust versus a 3" It alldepends on if you have the mods to justify 3 inch.

So anyways i own a 91 s13 sr20det


J.red I like you and respect the work you put into moderating the forum but everything seems so serious with you, sure, maybe a smaller exhaust would perform better but probably not so much it'd be an issue, I don't think it really matters

Clem i payed $4500 australian. for one of the cleanest silvias i have ever seen haha.

@Jared Its an sr20det with a gt28 attached so the turbo is a fair bit bigger than stock hence the full 3inch turbo back system.

Nah not fast, take my time get everything done properly.

I would really like a genuine aero kit as its made in the standard plastic that is really tough stuff takes quite a hit to brake them.

I didn't realize it was turbocharged, I didn't see that in the first post.

Anyways, I was just trying to help him out. Because in the case if it were NA, a 3 inch could actually hinder the performance. And sometimes an oversized exhaust can damage the valves and valve seals on NA cars. But being that it's turbo, a 3 inch is definitely perfectly fine.

Figures. lol

Is it just for the sound or do Australians know something that the rest of the world doesn't?

when the BOV/BPV is that tight or non-functioning, the air surges back into the turbo backwards which makes the flutter sound as the blades slow down... blades slowing down = they need to spool back up which in turn = turbo lag. It can also cause shaft play because the turbine is constantly being pushed back and forth although I think most people are willing to live with that risk. You can have it flutter a little bit, helps to be sure that you won't have a boost leak but it should still open under a lot of pressure so that you don't cause more lag or prematurely wear the turbo.

That's it for my mechanical lesson of the day (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif) . My BPV was originally set up for evo boost levels. I had to open it up and remove a spring to keep it from surging. I might tighten it up a bit more tho cuz I almost never hear it surge at all anymore which means it may have loosened up.

Yeah, I'm running the stock 7psi through the stock bov built into the side mount. I will deffinatly go and after market on and have it open up under heavy pressure once I crank the boost up. That won't e until I have a front mount, new ecu, boost controller and bov in place.
