Sean can you please post pics of the SE Y pipe and how it routes through the tunnel mounted torque arm cross member once you have test fit those pieces? Also clearance pics of a soda can under the torque arm cross member would be good to see also. Is the test fit vehicle stock ride height?
Any future plans to test with various rear ends and also the option to have it adjustable for changing pinon angle on the shorter tunnel mount version?
I know I had to cut 2 of the bolt holes off on my short tunnel mount TA to get it to fit on the Dana S60.
Just an FYI we should be releasing our chassis mounted torque arms by the end of the week. They clear both our True Dual Exhaust, and Offroad Y-Pipe. Our trans mounted torque arm will also be available by the end of the week as well. Here's a pic of the chassis mounted version.
Thanks
Sean
What pipe is that to the bottom right of the torque arm? Part of y pipe or duals?
Got the dumped duals installed. The install took some trial and error to get it right. Plenty of clearance in my car at stock ride height but I don't see dropping the car anymore than a heater hose would being a good idea. The driver side tip hangs a tad lower than the rest of the system but I can't bring it up much more because the driver side pipe after the x will contact the driver seat bolt. (I suppose you could dent it with a press) Hangers are OK and seem to do their job fine, I only drilled one hole on each side. It has a very deep tone to it, much deeper than my magnaflow catback and I can tell will be very loud at WOT. It is just loud enough to annoy neighbors at 6AM but if you granny in neighborhoods it won't be a major problem after the initial cold start. I have SFCs and the only thing that rattles is the passanger cupholder and plastic shift boot tabs, which was the same with the old exhaust. The tips are turned somewhere around 45degrees and interior drone does exist at around 2500ish and is comfortable while crusing. Haven't been able to get on it because I just installed a new 9" so I have to baby it for 500 miles. I am much happier with this system than the magnaflow which was 2x the price...and now people can admire the busy 9" under the car instead of a polished steel muffler. I marked the bolts with a sharpie and will check to see if anything backs out. I replaced hardware with grade 8 bolts and torqued with a 1/2 ratchet. I also used lock washers, which must be grade 8. Clearance under driver side frame rail is the best I've seen from off the shelf systems as well. Just make sure you have the pipes adjusted right. I'll upload a video later but it won't do it justice. Videos never do... About 3" clearence stock height
Lol...good stuff. I had the phab td/x dumps. They were just to loud for me.
I would completely understand, they are much louder than the magnaflow catback. Keep in mind I have a cam, duals, converter and gear so it intensifies the situation. It does sound really good though. People say these cars sound like garbage because of the unique firing order...I say it was the stock exhaust configuration. I can actually hear it chop at idle now and no rasp in the mid rpms.
Ya I can tell a short arm and member will be tough to fit with this system, you could maybe dent the pipe 3/4 an inch under the seat bolt and bring it up a bit. It would have to be a very low crossmember. But with a long arm it works great. I have a BMR arm and relocation trans member with the arm mounted higher up on the member and the car feels very well planted. I don't see a need for a short arm unless you are running much faster times than a typical built Na LS1. Eric at BMR told me a short arm isnt necessary for my street strip car. We aren't making enough power.
