Just converted my Miltec exhaust to come out the side with no muffler of course! ill have pics later

 

Cool i bet it looks neat. what does it sound like? How are you protecting the side skirts?

 

Where are the pics? Post a video or at least a sound clip

 

Ill take some today its just the pipe for now I have a tip I didnt put on yet cuz i gotta cut the pipe alittle more.

 

THIS THREAD IS WORTHLESS WITHOUT PICS!!!!

Super excited though to see what you did!

SORRY IS WAS SOOOOO EXCITED I POKED THE BUTTON TWICE!

 

Here''s a sidepipe teaser for now!

Now that is fancy!

I'm curious as to how loud side exits would be...

 

Very interesting ...
Sound aside, are side pipes legal ?
I thought the exhaust had to be behind the rear axle

 

There may or may not be legal issues with adding *aftermarket* side pipes to a car not originally equipped with them, but I know of at least one current-model car that comes with side pipes from the factory (Dodge Viper), and I'm sure there are others, so I don't think there's anything inherently illegal about the exhaust exiting forward of the rear axle.

 

good point on the Viper having side pipes.

Now even MORE interested ...

 

These are legal, and they exit just aft of the front tire!

 

pics dude pics pics pics

 

Right now its kinda ghetto I have a tip to put on gotta cut the pipe more this was done just spending 20 bucks on heat wrap. So dont expect something real nice

 

interesting ...
So how loud is it

Also remember that back pressure is you friend for torque and pull.
Ohh ... and keeping the neighbors happy.




What about putting a turbo muffler or similar where the resinator is ?

 

sound clip pls

id rock it with a cherrybomb/glasspack. skinny and in multiple sizes.

 

Sweet, thumbs up for innovation Now where's the vid w/ sound?

 

Ha ill have to get on that i dont have a vid cam but maybe this weekend I can use my friends. I have the miltek cat back but I wanted more sound I was thinking bout just straight pipe out the back but then my friend said lets try this. It sounds kinda like a deep V6ish noise if you know what im talking about. But ill def try to get vid this weekend

 

I can believe it sounds pretty bad ***. I ran a side-pipe on an old BMW of mine, I have pics and sound clips if anyone's interested.

Technically this is illegal in most states, as they don't allow any exhaust modifications. In those other states, I believe that the exhaust has to exit behind the rear most opening to the cockpit, which would make this setup mostly legal.

 

Im running straight pipe on my r53, and its causing it to run dangerously lean, Jan could only tune it so much, might want to make sure thats not the case with your also, bad for it

I am pretty sure the laws in australia is that the exhaust has to exit behind the passenger compartment doors or opening windows. If that is the case it would be legal, look awesome too when it is tipped properly.

 

I had a Remus and removed the mufflers and ran straight pipe that was welded onto the Remus tips... HOLY CRAP was it loud.. However, it really sounded sick when you got WOT. The best part was coming up to a elderly couple in there Caddy and dropping it a gear or two and then giving it all she had...The look on there faces was priceless... It did seen to pull harder in the upper rpms as well.
