Mine came on Tuesday and like 2ndgenrocket my box was ****. The only thing protecting the exhaust was some bubble wrap. This thing sounds awesome. It shakes your guts at idle and mine sounds bassy all the way to redline.

I will have video and and mp3 of all 3 setups I've had on my car.

I figured I'd go ahead and post this seeing as I'm heading over to my friends house to rip the video now.

I'll be comparing :

RB Header, Pre silencer, AND

Greddy Power Extreme (quiet and nice sounding)
Stock T2 Catback (loud as **** but tinny sounding)
Corksport Catback (loud as **** but nice sounding)

I should have the mp3's up tonight but I'll have the video tomorrow.

The unit appears to be a quality unit, from what I ahve seen in various pics. My big beef with the unit is that it is designed for the Japaneese market (right Hand Drive). I would go single for the weight savings, and while this unit does save weight, it puts it on the same side of the car as the driver. I would prefer it mount on the passenger side. I think I'll try and contact Corksport and see if they can make a version designed for our market.

I like the driver side exit. Just looks so different. I love the way center exiting looks, sucks its not really possible

banzaitoyota

Looks don't make it handle!!!. I need to offset as much weight as possible in the Aut-x car to make up for my fat-***. I think I'm going to play with the MIG and make my own exhaust!!!!

I also think it should be on the passenger side. Makes more sence.

I've got their muffler on my Probe now w/ 2.5" pipe. It's very quiet on my car. Of course I've got a cat and my car only had a single muffler to begin with.

I should be getting that exhaust next week myself. (if I do buy an FC tomorrow I will anyway) I have only heard it on an NA in person. It was not all that loud but I think it had the cat then. I've also heard it on a TII in person, but she never really got on it hard so I really didn't get to hear it much.

The silencers if you've seen them or not for that exhaust are pretty darn restrictive. They chock the exhust down to 1" or so I think. Not the most power friendly piece in the world, but definatly quiets the heck out of the exhaust sound!

ok guys, take a minute, and think of it from their point of you

You're making a catback for the FC, you want to go from right behind the cat, before the Y pipe, but where is the Y pipe?
It's in the middle of the car, because form the exhaust to cats it slants to the middle to get to the Y-pipe.
Now would you rather have a slant from the right of the car, to the middle, and then slant out to the right again.
Or just have it go straight across from the right to left

I'm suprised no one mentioned that yet.

Well...

I have the mpeg made but I'll be uploading it tomorrow. I was planning on ripping the audio from it and editing my mp3 of the power extreme to go along with it.

I'll have both done sometime tomorrow, the video will be up sooner than the mp3 though. It is right about 3 minutes long and is 50 ish megs big. (high quality)

Right now I've got 2 broken studs on my pre silencer so I'm trying to fix that now.

50mb, and im on dialup, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

kabooski

I have a Custom Single(Ultra-Flow) coming out the passenger side
Like where it should be

Think about it
The 1st gens has it on the passenger side
the 3rd gens also have it on the passenger side

banzaitoyota

I agree with Kabooski!, I'm going to put my money where my mouth is and build a decent exhaust, out the Passenger side

Gefunk

The whole point was to be different, plus the weight offset isn't too bad for the drifters out there, it's different, and if you actually look at it, there is a shitload more flow if it comes out the driver side.

banzaitoyota

"there is a shitload more flow if it comes out the driver side"

Please justify and prove this statement.

Gefunk

Read love, node justified it way up yonder, it ain't my fault if you a illiterate

banzaitoyota

Before you resort to name calling why don't you consider the following:
"it ain't my fault if you a illiterate"
Ang how many hours of heat transfer and fluid dynamics do you have? How many exhaust systems have you buit and tested?

I do have an extensive backgroundin Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow. (21 years operational and maintenance experience in Nuclear Power Plant anf Facility operation, maintenance and design.)

It will "flow"(As in Cubic Feet per Minute) the same amount through either side of the exhaust.

GIGO : "Garbage in, Garbage Out".
Maybe a touch more backpressure, but I would have to see some dyno numbers to prove it.
My point is why add my weight to the drivers side of the car?
I disagree with Nodes point, any effect will be neglible.
I believe that corksport is supplying us with a Japaneese market system that is OPTIMIZED for a right hand drive vehicle. IE to save weight and offset the weight of the driver. I would want a system (SINGLE) to save weight and offset the weight of the driver in a Left Hand Drive car, Same reason the battery is being moved back there and having the car corner weighted.

banzaitoyota

oops

nate

I like the look of the dual better than the single, but how much more do they weght than the single?

well kabooski, is your exhaust a catback (from stock location of cats)? Probably not, which means you won't have any problem with exiting the passenger side. What I was trying to explain is WHY it exits the drivers side.

relvinnian

I agree with Node.

Gefunk

Banz, you are really smart. First you insult my sarcasm, than you try to say that it shall flow better both ways? I am not some super scientist which I guess you are but I know one thing, when air hit's bends it causes less flow. So in theory there is a strait line through to the cat back, a wee bit after the driver side door. However since the exaust will change directions, the exaust shall hit a wall at the emidiate entry of the passenger side cat back. These "bounces" are evil since they cause a kind of vacum that has a tendency to cause...what?? LESS FLOW!! Boo-yah *gay dance around the comp*!!! Now for your other slip up....it costs me a lot of money for stuff over seas so why would Corksport sell us something so cheap that they would have to import. Think of the tariffs and all??? Not to smart eh? No, a single cat back won't off set the cars weight all that much, and if it does than you are way to fat and shouldn't be driving the car anyway. Moreover the car would steer to the left because you have worn out the two left shocks causing the car to dip to the left. My answer....loose some weight fatty.

*Joins Gefunk in gay computer dance*

And banzai, for the weight, just think as the header as an offset for the right side, plus you're losing a good bit of wait w/ no cats, and single exhaust.

banzaitoyota

This picture will disprove NODES THEOry. Both legs of the stock Y-Pipe are 42" long. The point is the change in BACKPRESURE is so small, I doubt it would show up on a DYNO TEST. All I ask fro was some EMPERICAL EVIDENCE of your CLAIM.

Why you have to resort to personnel attacks is Beyond me.

kabooski

If I was to use Cats I surely would not use the stock one

just think Node on what side of the car is the DP/Turbo on

a "straight" exhaust from DP to the rear pass side
is the best flowing period!

Try slimfast

Make your own and copy this picture(too many sharp bends?).

Looks good but without 2nd muffler-something looks missing. Mounted here:

Does Corksport make a dual muffler version? I too don't care for the single look, but maybe if the bumper can be filled in, I might consider.

Sonic

Have you guys also considered the amount of cars that are made here in the US and Japan both that have the exhaust on the driver side?

I was just on the highway and was looking for it. 2nd and 3rd gen Eclipse, Grand Am, Tarus (I think), and a number of other cars were exited on the left side....

kabooski

But we drive what?

and those cars are FWD that either have the manifold
on the front or the rear of the engine (Taurus's)

so it makes so diffrence where the exhuast exits

The early BMW's had them in the middle
