Has anyone done this? I know pypes has one to go with their own pipes. I want something like the boss exhaust for my 06 and this may be the next best thing. What are you guys thoughts?

 

If you're talking about exhaust dumps you can get those from like jegs and summit. The pypes one was trash, which is probably why they AM dropped it. They're sick. They're on my build list

 

Don't you drop in power when you do this?

 

Not from what I've read. You dump the exhaust right after the headers so there's no resistance. When I do my LTs and catted H I'll put these in too.

 

These are pretty cool.

Yea they're sick man. Nothing cooler than pulling up next to a Honda at a light and shamelessly rumbling their high performance wing off...

 

Dont make fun... U can't e-thug me when I know where u live :-)

Btw Trent you know I suck at cars

 

I'm going to see if my neighbor can build me sum.... The dude can build anything....

 

Do these work well??

 

I had a pair of QTECs and they were great for about a year and a half. After the second New England winter though, they failed due to all the slush and crap on the road that got into them and ruined the motors. Due to where I placed them (after the H) they also serve as the lowest point of my chassis, so they scrape on pretty much any ramp or speed bump.

One thing that could have contributed to the failure is that the motors don't stop when they are fully open or closed, so you have to be careful and hope your count is consistent when you count "One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, etc.."

 

Was your car lowered?

 

No, I'm at stock ride height. Here's how they currently look with the motors removed and plates in their place. The shiny stuff is adhesive backed heat shielding I added to be on the safe side with exhaust outputting in that area. With the motors, the mounting flange will stick out a little bit more.

They don't stick out too much, but they are just low enough that they scrape on my in-laws' driveway ramp

I plan on replacing them with straight pipe when I get an O/R H installed, because I don't use them without motors to open from the cabin.

 

Haha don't miss living in NH. I love driving year round =D

 

Just going off your picture right now they're pointed down. Could you point them to the side?

 

I also just read about their low profile oval cutout and how they can make one specifically to your car. This might help in the scraping don't you think? And! They now have some fancy stuff and powder coating to make it last longer

 

I used Quick Time Performance on my last Stang. Nothing better for sound with control and no drone at any RPM.
Done with the help of a friend with a muffler shop. Best sound ever!

 

That looks great! Is that like the $600 set? And how does it work if you don't have the remote to open them?

 

It was a kit that cost about $300 and came with just the electric cut-out valves (2) and wiring with switch (which I hid in center console). We fabricated all the other parts. I had about $400 into whole thing. That's with free labor.
I'd been through three exhaust systems trying to get sound without drone before I ran into this. If I was to do a system again from scratch, I would put tips I like on stock set-up and just add the controlable QTP cut-outs.

 

In hindsight before the H would have been a much better spot, and welded will last a long time. The clamp in pieces I have are flowtech race readies and they are rusted junk after being in for 5 years. Latemodel restoration has the overaxle segments that I'm just going to replace to eliminate the extra belt clamps that are leaking. While I'm in there I'm putting in an H with high flow cats as well
