  • How much will exhaust help me

    Another what do you think question. I currently have a 98 a4 convertable camaro.My mods are 3.42's,k and N,160 thermo,whisper air lid,!MAF and FTRA. My current best is a 15.9 with these mods.What do you think my time would be if I got the B and B Triflow exhaust.Thanks for any help and sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.

    I don't know what your time will be, but if you have the intake mods taken care of you will definately feel a difference after upgrading your exhaust.

      Thanks for your post.Im just curious coz everyone says you dont get the true benifits of intake or exhaust till you got them both.Anyone else notice a difference in power from going from just one to both.I know this post is kinda corny but Im just really excited obout getting my tax $$$ and buying the BB tri flo

        I had my SLP intake on for about 4-6 months before I got my exhaust a month ago. Noticeable difference in the power on highway speeds, especially 70+ when I punch it. Down low, can't really tell a big difference.

        I went with the Flowmaster 80 with a 2.75" pipe...

            Hey that sounds good to me , every tenth really means alot. I dont know if Im right on this or not but from my small track experience ( only 32 timeslips ) I have noticed that a tenth of a second is about a 1 car length differance. So if you race a car that is only 1 second faster than you, you will get killed by like 10 carlenghs. Well thats my observation dont know how true it is......Well hope I gain that tenth from the tri flo on my quest for 14's

              Were in Hawaii do you race?? My whole exaust system with headers, cat and cat back and a 45 degree s pipe only gave me maybe 12 horsepower at the most and about 20 or so ftlbs of tq.. The real benifit from exaust is when and if you put a power adder on it..

                I live on Oahu by the Walmart in Waipahu right off of Kunia road. I race at the track by cambell industial park. I think its actuaal called Cambells raceway or somthing like that, never actually looked at the sighn but that sounds like the right name. Are you on this island too? If so we should check out eachothers cars. I want to see those headers.If tou are here and you ever saw a neon green covertable that was me.

                    don't make that misstake.
                    one car lenth is not always a 10th..if you are pulling 12 1/4 miles...that gap is travled alot faster

                        Go ahead and get exhaust. I would recommend a Flowmaster 80 with 2.5" or 2.75" pipes from the cat back. You should be able to pull better times with 3.42s I think..what are your 60ft times like?

                          My best 60 foot so far, after looking at timeslips is 2.400,I thought I had a 2.3 but guess not.My best before 3.42 was 2.542.Man my times suck , but Im getting better.

                            Ungh...just as long as you guys in Hawaii aren't driving a dark green Camaro I saw at Zippys with the stock spoiler AND a commando-rice spoiler on top of it.

                            LOL...that was UGLY. I used to live in Waipahu for a couple years, going back this summer!
