Also like wayne said, other people have not had any problems so im sure he wont either. Now i demand either,

Don't think it matters much but just realised you mentioned the problems
with the EJ257, the JDM STi's have 207's.

I know there has been issues with the 06/07 ADM 2.5's when they have
had TBE exhausts put on without a tune as they are more sensitive than
older models.

But it is tuned for 100 RON so babying the car until tune is just extra
safety and wont hurt me to drive granny spec for a few days.

Nice Ramon, liking all these noises. EQ length/Twinscroll is so much better i reckon! I dont think ill ever go back haha.

Wayne: Alot of the cases areabout the 257, that is true and do realise that you have a JDM 2ltr (nowonder the japanese didnt go 2.5's, because they know the 2ltr works!) but they still have cast pistons from memory (unless they changed somewhere after version 8).

JDM_STYLE · #**265** 22-08-2009, 02:06 PM

Yeah mate definitely cast, just wasn't sure if you were aware of it being a 207
and that's why i said probably doesn't matter

Nah buddy, like you said, nothing will happen anyway!

Might even be able to shoot down to the dynoday with my own rex if shes up and running *fingers crossed*. Might be running her in at that stage.

Kool see you there.

After going on the freeway today the missus hates the zorst
haha.

If I end up with a black eye I might get the Genome or the
STi cannon from japan parts and just use the Titanium one
on cruises or events, will see how it goes though.

Cheers Muggz, will probably only need the tip

Genome's are actually quite restrictive as the inside of the piping
is actually alot smaller than the outside.

Found a few STi cannon mufflers on the net but dont really want
to sell a kidney for them, if it becomes a major hassle for the sound
(missus) then a Butler/Genome will prob be the go.

Pretty sure she will get used to it though.
