HFCs/TPs may be on the list of parts. This may not be the case if they make the downpipes extended like the Greddy ones. I had something similar on my CA18DET. The DPs eliminated the need for Cats/HFCs/TPs. I would steer away from the LTHs unless you plan on going SC. At that point, they would be a worthwild addition.......

Ah good advice, good advice. I'm gonna need to get a quote from Tony on that 3" FI, or was the pricing fairly similar? And was your build delay longer then the current 6-8 weeks for the standard?

roplusbee · 12-30-2011, 03:04 PM

As far as I know, Ron, myself, and at least 2-3 others are on the list for that exhaust. I am sure that Tony will make some sort of "official" announcement about it and the TT kit.

I have been working on my build for quite some time now, but I had a year from go time to make it happen since I am in Afghanistan..........

Called Tony and ask him the details if you want a 3in now.

I'm stoked to find out about the FI 3", however I just bought some rims and tires and swift springs, and with that combined with the holidays I'm pretty drained. That's definitely gonna be my next upgrade though in the next few months. Do you know if they're going to provide a HFC or test pipe to match up with that 3"?

Ron · 12-30-2011, 03:29 PM

We don't have much info on it. Tony will more than likely provide those for his kit.

The only reason he is building a 3in exhaust now is because I asked him to build me one. To make it worth his while I am trying to get more people interested. Details on the 3'' system will be sent to interested people next week, according to Tony.

Most of the us interested folks have a GTM TT kit so Tony is replicating an exhaust that he had already built on a GTM TT equipped car. He needs to get this car to his shop and build the systems on it that is way if someone REALLY wants a FI 3in kit that is fully compatible with a GTM TT kit should jump on this. Who know when he will have that car on his hands again

I worked my deal with Tony after I decided to go with the Greddy TT kit. He needed the car so that he could ensure that everything lined up with the DPs, but there is another Greddy TT car going to his shop for installation. So now I don't have to ship my car out to him to have that section built anymore. WIN! Thanks to UAM and Jamaica for the quick save..........

I have been drooling over the 3" TDX since I read about Specialty Z's car a long time ago.............

I bought Stillen Long Tubes and had to throw them away when I got the GTM Stage II TT. Do have, Stillen HFCs & Exhaust. Working out very nicely.

Stillen does not make LTH, there short headers you do still have to get rid of because GTM provides you with manifolds.

I have the Berk because at first I thought that I'd go SC. It works well with TT but I really want a more aggressive sound.

I am one of the ones that is looking into the FI 3".

If you know what route you want to go with your forced induction choice then choose the proper exhaust so you don't have to change later.

2.5" for SC, 3" for TT and I wouldn't bother with headers with either.

I'm running a GTM Stg II Tt, with an ARK Grip 2.5" complete exhaust. GTM test pipes. Love it.

It's not too loud, but still has authority. Hated the GTM 2.5" original exhaust, although it flowed and performed well. (Hated it twice: First in how loud it was, second when it sold for 1/3 of the cost.)

Everyone has their preferences.

I still haven't seen a Ark Catback in person yet. It sounds mean from the vidz, but I want to hear it in person. As far as fitment goes, the GTM 3"seems" to be the fit the best in the alloted space (meaning that it is tucked up in there well). Never heard one in person either. Not knocking them in any way. Prior to seeing SEBs car, I was considering AAM's 3" or the Greddy TiC. That quickly changed when I saw the 3" TDX, considering I have a 2.5" TDX.......lol!
