Best exhaust

[Andrade08]

Everyone else makes an 80mm... If im paying that kind of money, that s*** better be stainless, not black "paint'.

HAHA! Ya,,,,,You won't get grief from me there. But, the difference between 75mm and 80mm is nothing. It's 3" pipe. Just the metric version. The dang Corksport looks better and better.

i've got a turbo xs tbe and it sounds awesome. It is one of the most mean soundin cars i've ever heard now. Don't think theres much difference in sound between any of the tbe's though. They're all gonna be super loud. ha ha!

75mm is 2.95 inches, 80mm is 3.1 inches. Hardly any difference. But the corksport did look better, hence why I went with it, lol.

does anyone know the weight of the 08 ms 3 18"rim?

 

[ccann26]

I'm hoping cobb will come out with a full exhaust with a high flow cat at the same time as the AP releases...

 

[jodacoto]

25+ pounds each.

[kingking]

get a CPE DP and keep your OEM CBE, it is a very expensive 2-3hp and really doesn't change the sound all that much

You don't need a catback, it's a waist of money!

oh i agree, cbe is a waste of $500+

CBE a waste...? This is gay!!! (notcool)
This is the CP-E massive 3" downpipe mated to the stock sub 2.4" CBE... Can we say lame!!!!

 

[knowledge007]

Lame...

$600 for 2-3 hp and drone/noise isn't money well spent imo but its all personal preference

 

[AutoXRacer]

The CBE upgrade is not for horsepower nor sound (well, some people do it for sound), its for finishing the job right; nobody wants a half-assed mod.

Full TBE or go home!! (evil) (lol2)

You have to admit the picture above looks pathetic... I am embarrassed to show that to my car enthusiast friends...

Oh and if you know what you are buying...there is no drone.
Plus if you already have a DP, I believe the gains are a little more...

Not trying to convince/sell this...just my 0.02 cents.

The lockwashers should be on the nutted side of the flange and because of the holes being slots flat washers are needed. Why is somebody downsizing a turbo exhaust?

(shrug) Thats how CP-E's instruction sheet said to install it. The nuts have a locking feature on them... I would have thought the said as you, but I'm installing it as speced per the manufaturer...
