51987, APEXi N1 silencer
Posted by el2oCz, Jul-12-03 02:34 PM
What's up guys. I got a N1 exhaust system and it's way toooo loud. It came with a silencer but I dont like the way it looks. Now I'm thinking about putting it on. If I do put it back on, will it affect the spool of the turbo since the diameter of the silencer is small and the exhaust wouldn't be flowing freely?

theoretically yes, anything jammed in your exhuast pipe to block air flow will hurt a turbo setup.

i put the silencer in my dunk for a road trip last week, there wasn't a noticable difference in turbo spool...but what i did notice was the total loss of top end power...it just felt flat over 5,000rpms..

ya i'd hafta agree. i'm NA but i notice a drop in top end with the silencer in. it actually feels like somethings holding the engine back. plus it looks cooler with the silencer out anyways :P
