The Project Pad

I need to finish exhaust and get it out the back of the car. From this pic it looks like a 45 degree bend should get me up over rear axle. Any suggestions or pics of the over the axle piece is appreciated.

Maybe this helps to see on the car? Scroll down to the bottom 1/4 of page one:

That does help thank u

Last one of these I did i actually used a few small stainless bends to go over the axle. Maybe I made it more complicated that it needed to be but its a hard spot to get not to rub! Youll need tight hangers. Also if you want to do that 180 into the muffler you'll need a very tight radius Mandrel bend. in addition you can see in the pictures I have only one joint in front of the subframe. You actually need two joints, one on each side of the subframe, or to locate the joint very close to the axle. Otherwise you'd have to lower the subframe a little bit to get the exhaust out.

Sorry dont think I have any better pics of that portion but to me it was much more complex than A 45. If you're ordering bends get a few extra.
I don't think I have an pictures of the whole system on the ground. I started with this rear muffler because I ran out of bends and needed to get my car off the rack at the time. Then later went back and added a bigger muffler to the rear mounted transverse.
I've always really liked this place. Don't know where you're located but I always receive my orders within 2 days. I believe this is what you'd need for that rear bend. http://www.mandrel-bends.com/catalog/3-00-304-stainless-4-50-radius-16g-180-degree-mandrel-bend-4363.html that and a couple of tight 90's for the way out. one slightly longer than the other.

Wow that really helps. I hate fabbing exhaust off jack stands sucks. So the advice and pics is greatly apprecoated

Saw the video on the IG. Looking good man. Feels great to go on the first drive after doing a lot of work.

I am going to do it similar to this but with something more similar to your rear with no crazy bend.

If it helps, this is what my dude did:

sounds awesome. vrt engines sound so exotic!

a beast at 12 psi. pretty sure she is broken in now.

its broken in, now tuned to 32 psi.. more videos to come.

those exhaust pics are perfect.


Also I am thinking about ordering or making something like this.

Anyone have input, advice , pics, or experience. Thanks in advance.

For 12psi it looks/sounds like that thing rips.

And the lights seem to illuminate the signs a long way off as well.

All in all, some pretty nice work going on here.

Got the car to 32-34 psi. Got dyno time next week. So I am almost ready for that.

that was quick! New videos?? Must be a screamer.

that is going to make some power and with a good power band . can not wait to see the printout.

Can't wait as well! I know it's somewhere way back... Which turbo?

Same here. Should be a sweet setup.

Well I went out to log again today boost was 32 max in the top end but I smoked the clutch.

Turned it down to 28 and its good but I'm looking to order an fx850 this week

For your enjoyment. The last hit 4th gear looks like a quater pipe. Bounced redline in 3&4

a vid of the tach, boost and speedo during some pulls would be awesome. I bet real awesome.

well I guess you cant have your cake and eat it too.. new clutch coming

Is wheel speed activated on your config by any chance?
