Exhaust System

Postby thelaughingman » Sat Nov 09, 2013 6:27 pm

Hello Guys,

I'm trying to find some more info on this Exhaust that I've purchased from REV9.
its a 2.25" cat back Trust-power system. I've Googled and gone on the trust website and have not been able to find any info on it.

any help would be appreciated

What did you want to know? I can tell you most of the important stuff by looking at it.

Gains over factory..2-3hp on it's own.

Its aluminised steel piping with 304 stainless muffler and tip, the hotdog is also mild steel aluminised.
It has a 3" tip and a straight through muffler and of course all hotdogs are straight through.

Thanks for that,

How much would be a reasonable gain to expect with 4-1 headers and a hiflow cat?

would 10-15 be about right?

8-10 at a guess, depending on design, -more with an ecu and tune- you want to do the timing advance also if it;s going on an NA6.

It is on a NA16, i've not done the timing adjustment yet. I plan to do that after i install the exhaust and do the Air intake properly, i know im never going to see big power but any improvement is better than none :)

You can achieve 10-15rwkw and 10nm, if you get some decent cams. Look up warren Heath proformance on Facebook. He does a decent set of cams for under $500.
