Side Exit Exhaust

[xnamerxx]

I just wanted to share this with the Yaris community as I just finished it up tonight but I've built a side exit exhaust for my Yaris. Yes its loud much louder than you'd imaging a Yaris can be.

hahahahahahahha awesome :D

[tooter]

That's really cool, namer...:thumbsup:

Can you post a video of your car running?

[yarisugi]

NEED SOUND NOW!

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Nice, think you're the first to do it :thumbsup:

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Also I'm assuming you're not running a muffler, just header, cats, and resonator?

[xnamerxx]

This is a full 2.25" mid pipe all the way down. Its got a single cat in the front and a muffler where the resonator used to be but nothing after that.

I took the OBX pipe from Jason and modified it to my needs. This whole setup is quite a bit lighter than the stock exhaust that I removed from the car.

[tooter]

Is this setup going to cause you problems passing a smog test?

[Kaotic Lazagna]

With one cat gone and no resonator...should sound aggressive :wink:

Make sure you get start up and WOT in the video :smile:

[xnamerxx]

Probably, although i'm sure it would pass the sniffer I wouldn't dream of driving this exhaust on the street. Side exhausts have a few problems that make them not ideal for driving on the street, one of the biggies is that you have reduced ground clearance so you have to be extra careful over speed bumps and pot holes.
For my needs it works pretty well as this setup will weigh at least 5 lbs less than a similar rear exit exhaust plus I get the move all the muffler weight inboard and in front of the axle. Plus its a side exhaust so its cool :thumbup:

It only takes 15 minutes to swap back to the stock exhaust since its only 4 bolts so its only going to be used for racing events since I'm a bit nervous about the police harassing me if I drove it on the streets.

I'll post a video tomorrow I don't feel like having my neighbors hate me tonight :wink:

[malibuguy]

Thats similar to what im going to do for my next exhaust...however im going to try to run dual exit

[packetrace]

Are you gonna do a center exit malibu :D

We have six years, tooter - and since it's a bolt on that is easily removed, I think it presents no problem.
Would be interesting to roll into a test-only station though!

but yeah... VIDS!

Id that the ID of the midpipe? If so is there a lot of loss on the bottom end?

Thanks for the info, Garm. :thumbsup:
You can tell it's been a while since we've had a new vehicle, with a 19 year old Hyundai and a 14 year old Tacoma. :laugh:

[xnamerxx]

Yep the id of the pipe is 2.25" it feels like there's a loss of torque below 2k but no dyno to say for sure. Here's the video I just let it idle and took it around the block.

the idle is pretty loud. i half expected the car to be WAY louder, but then the video recorder was inside the car. Sounds pretty neat, though

[xnamerxx]

I think I might just have a bad ear for it but its def loud not quite custom exhaust Harley loud but loud, its actually louder than running stock exhaust with no muffler.

I was expecting the exhaust to be quite raspy and have terrible drone since it doesn't have a resonator but surprisingly when I drove it back last night it wasn't that bad as long as I kept my foot out of it.

[justjesus]

Make sure to look into the sound requirements for Nats !

That sounds rad! Maybe you might consider dynoing it just for fun. :smile:
Check the California section. Harry, at HK Motorsports in Van Nuys will open up his shop on a Sunday if at least five cars want to to dyno runs for $70 each.

Maybe an inner tube might help quiet it down.

Well I figured the sound issue out bought a car creations 3 puck silencer the noise location changed but it also went from obnoxiously loud to just loud.

On a side note the silencer also gave me a bunch of low end torque while sacrificing almost nothing up top.

I'm loving this exhaust more and more its still a bit to loud for my taste but its more because the exhaust feels like a cop magnet.

Oh, God... that is SO FUNNY!!!!!! :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

[malibuguy]

that is probably the funniest thing i've ever seen. I NEED TO DO THAT!

[cali yaris]

^ Laughing so hard! that's awesome.

[detroiter]

oh man, that thing has me laughing! Sounds like a wet long fart ROFL

[Bluevitz-rs]

I saw that vid a while ago and it's still funny!!!
