If anyone with the Corksport single exhaust could post a pic of their car from the side (drivers side) Id really appreciate it. I searched for pics and found a bunch, but are all from the rear. Id like to see at what kind of an angle this thing exits at. So if anyone has a pic or cares to take one real quick, Id like that alot. Thanks a bunch !

 

There is a pic of the CS exhaust. The pic is small because I took the pic with my cell phone, but you get the idea.

 

Justin, Where in MN are you and what have you done to the suspension?

 

hey jimmy, i cant talk **** with you anymore man, i cant **** around anymore. i had a MASSIVE engine fire last night and my car is totalled.

 

Thanks alot

Oh and jaconcartmill....I read your post about your car, Im sorry man that sucks so bad...

 

As to where I live in MN?
I live in the Maple Grove Osseo area. About 20 min west of MPLS.
What part of MN do you live in?
As to what I have done to the suspension?
I have HKS springs, KYB AGX struts in the front, Tokico Illumina struts in back, a Trust strut tower bar in front along with RB top strut mounts, and Cork Sport strut tower bar in back.

 

Its late I forgot to say that I love the exhaust. It is realy loud. At leat it is with no cats. I would recommend getting the silencer for it, I did.

 

I'm out in st cloud but you might have seen me headed through town on occasion. I have the grey second gen with the black hood (very temporary) and you could hear me coming 1/8 mile away at 80mph.

Now I have a much quieter single on the car and its not any louder than a honda with a coffee can. (sounds much better too)

I noticed the non-stock fender gap. Thats why I asked about the suspension.

Jacob, I'm truely sorry about the fire. I take it you don't have ins? Those pics made me up the priority of my PD removal. I have another banjo bolt from the back side of the rail that needs a spacer ring made to center it on the hose barb. I'm thinking I should get on that.

 

The fender gap looks good though.

 

yep, very good looking fender gap...

I have the ST springs and adjustable perch t-max shocks but my tires are undersized so it still looks shitty.

 

I was looking in the fine print on the corksport page. That catback tapers at the end to 2.5 inch inlet then opens up to 3 inches, Rxmfn7 you and me both have the bonez hiflow cat which is 3 inches from the header/manifold back. Is this gonna cause some flow issues? I sent them an email and asked them if it's possible to get one in a 3inch catback instead of a tapered 2.5. (made that way to bolt on to the stock cat's, but hey, who has those?)

I'll post any reply they send me to this thread.

 

Hmm, I never even thought of that. Im gonna go measure my cats ID in a bit, just to see how big it is. If it comes down to it, Ill just have to weld myself up a piece of 3" piping to replace that tapered 2.5" piece from CS. If I have to do that I'll make you one too.

 

Xentrix, my roomate, has a much of pictures and movie clips of the CS single, I'll get him to post some stuff next time i see him.

Chris

 

haha, Awesome! I'll stand around and look dumb while I watch ya weld.

If I can get a digi cam I'll take some. I don't have any pics here at the dorm.

 

try pm Blackfc NYC he has one and he has a thread on here and it has pics

 

Break out your welder, Ben from corksport sent me a reply


_______________________________
We will eventually come out with a full 3" system. But it seems more of our customers still have a stock main cat. We will also be coming out with a 3" mid silencer piece. We plan on offering a full turbo-back 3" exhaust eventually.

I have had customers buy our system, cut the part where it tapers down off, weld on a new "3 flange and make their own mid-pipe.

It will be a few months until we actually offer something however.

Alrighty, well whenever I get around to ordering the cat-back I'll just have to take some measurements and weld up that 3" pipe. It should be within a few weeks. Ill let you know.
