GTM TT kit - What exhaust are you running?

AWX Z34 · 01-31-2012, 02:00 PM

Hey guys,

For the ones that have the GTM tt kit with the 3" down pipes, what exhaust are you running? Was there any issues mounting other brands exhaust onto the down pipes? Not sure if im in the right room but, I thought I would ask here first.

Hold off for fast intentions 3" :]

lol ... Thanks for letting me know but, the down pipe flanges should meet up with other exhausts flanges without an issue right?

I know, I was just looking around for other 3" exhaust and making sure that they would fit properly before I set on a system. When is the FI coming out?

Good luck finding a mainstream 3" CBE. Your options are quickly limited to AAM, GTM, and Fast Intentions. You could go custom, but I would say that GTM or F.I. would be your best bets!

I figured it was limited but,I do like the AAM sound and look of the exhaust. Thanks for your help guys!

There is currently a group buy for the 3'' FI CBE that is actually being made to fit the GTM 3'' downpipes. Pricing and wait time will increase once it goes on regular sale...PM me if you want in; I am helping Tony with the list and customer info. I'll need ur email and phone number. Group buy exhaust systems should start shipping after feb 20

Sometimes other exhaust can be a little problematic if they don't have a flex built into them. But most times you can make it work. Just something to consider.

Have you pulled the silencers yet? That's when things get interesting.

LafitteZ · 01-31-2012, 09:53 PM

yea there out i love how it sounds man.

roplusbee · 02-01-2012, 10:04 AM

The Greddy TiC is 2.75" and should be plenty for F/I applications as well. That was my alternative if I couldn't work the F.I. 3" TDX.

I was running the Berk 2.5" with my TT. I am patiently waiting for spring and my Fast Intentions 3".
Since this is the only change that I am going to make this spring I should get an idea as to the gains going from 2.5" to 3" with TT. Of course that'll only be with a butt dyno so it may be difficult to tell.

2.5" ARK Grip system for me, w/GTM test pipes. More diameter = Louder.

We made almost 600whp and my G is one of the fastest TT's out there, with this combo.

Don't overthink the need for 3" pipes. This might even give me more midrange, which makes it that much MORE fun!
