#32304, "StraightPipe"


          

I am getting tons of mixed answers.. Does anyone have a nonturbo eclipse who has put on a straightpipe with a catback exhaust? If you have a straightpipe does it help alot at all rpm ranges? What size straightpipe do you have?

I straight piped my last eclipse, it helped but nothing super. Biggest gain was after 4000RPM I gained 18HP yet that was with intake and header all combined into one. I was unable to put it on a Dyno between each seperate mod. I had 3 inch pipe with no Cat. (Illegal in I think all states, yet ohio does not have checks)

PS. I also tuned it up between mods which I kind of regret doing since Im sure that helped the numbers.

hey you still have that picture from underneath your car showing the four inch straight piping? I thought that was nuts when you posted that awhile back.

Yes, it's loud emoji But not too bad, i have the stereo pumping mostly anyways... There are emmision laws in indiana, but only like 5 counties, all in extreme southern indiana, closest to ky border... i live in one of those counties, but i registered at another counties liscense branch.... Cops want me to get a muffler on it, so i might get a race muffler, straight through design from summit.... not like its gonna do much, but maby it might make them happy.

p.s. it is mandrel bent semi piping.... from a local semi supply place...

if your unlucky enough to have to pass emission tests, hopefully you still have your stock exhaust system. just slap it back on. its not that big of a hastle since you only have to do it once every 2 years.
