If you had a ported TB, you have a ported TB. It is a singular part of the whole exhaust.

Since you seem to either not reread your posts to see how dumb it sounds, let me help you with the basics:

FULL exhaust consists of:
-headers
-Y pipe
-catback
(true duals vouch for the last two in that instance)

Each of the above enumerated above by a "-" is a part in the whole. If you have one or two, you do not have all (full). So if you have a y pipe and catback (which you care trying to call FULL), you do not have all the parts, so you do not full exhaust.

And to explain your own example to you ....

FULL intake would consist of:
-CAI/lid
-MAF
-bigger/ported TB
-intake manifold

Okay. Thanks for your input.
A header is a header, and exhaust is exhaust. We are all saying that, but you are trying to say that "an exhaust" = full exhaust..."an" = a part of the exhaust also known as a catback, or can be true duals as well.

From the hit it would put you in your seat but after that it got boring. He later swapped to a t56.
Probably not gonna spray it, I dont want to break too much stuff

Never knew a ported TB was a singular part of the whole exhaust. Your knowledge is obviously infinite.

Again stand back and LOOK at what you are trying to argue here. What YOU consider a FULL exhaust is not what I or every other local considers what a full exhaust is. You can sit here and post obvious bullshit but you are so retarded and or oblivious, that you aren't even aware that YOU are arguing what YOU consider is and isn't "full" exhaust. Is that dumb'd down enough for you?

When has anyone said "full intake". Thats like retards who say "fully built", and don't state what "fully built" consists of. it could mean a million things. If i were to say "full intake" Wtf does that mean? Could mean i have a LIST of several different part combinations.


See how stupid your agrument is, you are arguing something that isn't even a fact, its a phrase. If someone asks me my mods im not going to say "full intake" Ive yet to hear that, and ive been around cars since i was 15. Im going to say ported TB, SLP lid, and list my mods, like a normal human being.

Again refer to the post above, im not going to reply to you again if your main argument is what YOU consider to be a "full" exhaust. If it makes you happy or helps you sleep at night ill edit my OP and change "full exhaust" to "header back" or someshit, its really not that serious.

Don't be a ******* numbnut, obviously it was a typo. Jesus. I'm going to forgo replying to any of your nonsense any further in this thread. The above proves I need not waste any more time arguing with a brick wall.

Eh...a Throttle Body is part of the intake tract, NOT the exhaust. C'mon man, I guess we'll chalk that up to a 6-pack of beer or something. lol

I just dont get why you GM guys always go at it with each other, when these FORD Mustang fanboy nutswingers that frequent a GM site do it already on a daily basis. I don't get it.

Full exhaust = the entire routing of what gets the exhaust out of the cylinder and into the open air....so longtubes is included.
Depends on the air...when it's cool here we have extremely good DA, and I've watched an '02 WS6 trap 110 with just a lid and SFCs. And for the record, full exhaust to me and everyone else I have ever talked to or heard of means headers/mid-pipe/cat-back.

I think this thread moved real fast, and perhaps it was a lot to do with what I said to this adamantium kid. I agree with what WsSick, Mike Morris, Woodaniel, and Irunelevens said and many others in here too. But in the end, manual and auto both have their place...but why haven't you posted the top ten fastest of any muscle car yet, like I asked Mr.Adamantium?

Slam autos if you will, but we all know what's what. That's why I didn't even bother to respond...you're pretty much lablackbeast with a cooler name . Maybe I'll just keep getting you to post up more so as to really clarify how little you know lol.

We agree on something?

Yeah, apparently 99% of people believe full exhaust means headers, mid-pipe (y-pipe, x-pipe, etc.), and cat-back except a select few living in south Florida

True NA Honda guys at heart have different wording for a lot of things

Yeah i guess ill have to let my buddy know, that he is no longer qualified to tune GMs or Hondas anymore.

Apparently since he also is more specific with mods.

Maybe tuning all those 1000+hp GMs and 800+HP hondas, wont get you any cool cred on LS1tech. Ya know since thats all that matter in life. Using terms that the handful of members on SRK use.

I love when people bring the Honda stuff up like if that is something to be ashamed of, because im the only one on this site who will tip my hat to anything thats fast. I know most of you live in **** towns with like 4 fast cars, but around here we have several fast Hondas, GM's, Fords, Rotarys, lambos, ferraris, even VWs we have it all. I could careless what the handful of LS1tech members have to say about it lol.

Carry on.

He doesn't have to quit tuning GMs, he just needs to get his terminology straight

Don't flatter yourself - there are several guys on here who admire and respect anything that is fast, myself included. I just at how much you Hondas when you own an F-body. You've been better about it, and for that, we thank you

Don't you mean you couldn't care less? Because if you could care less, it means that you care a lot and could possibly care less. If you don't care about the particular subject, you couldn't care less, because you care so little about it.

Full exhaust for me since the early 90s always meant headers,some sort of off road pipe and a catback. No brainer

Ill run any M6 LS1 Fbody with the same mods/weight as me on a roll or from a dig. Find one. Not sure on my weight though maybe 3400 ish

Yup looks like you should def teach him a thing or two about whats what on a car.

No one on here respects anything but GM cars, sorry. Ive been on here long enough to see that.

Couldn't.**

Yet to hear full exhaust used when including headers till now, and ive been to the races and been around cars since i was 15. Like i said i guess people in miami don't use that term. Usually to be clear everyone around here lists their mods.

A catback for a f-body is completely different than what a catback is for a honda, or vws, or nissans, or mazdas. Just sayin. Its pretty vague.

Full exhaust around here is said because usually the full exhaust system (from header collector back) has been redone or modded. The correct term for that is a header back anyways. No need to continue this argument. If it helps members then ill edit my OP so you guys can stop whining.

It's not anything about your "buddy" bro. It's really just about "you", in this point in time. We all have buddies, but not all of us bank on them so much...must be a Miami thing ? You argue fact with opinion and think everyone should eat it up because your buddy this and your buddy that. Get your buddy on here then....

Free seat to Buddy Holly and *crickets*. Why do you insist on not knowing when to quit anyways? Surely you don't think what you are saying makes any sense do you? Lol. Do you drive a mystic teal Camaro by any chance...


*No one on here respects anything other than GM? Really? I think Ohio's brute is smashing (yes I even said smashing lol). I love Lambos, '03 and up Vipers, and I really dig what the GTR has become. As far as German engineering, GREAT stuff! You sound butthurt about details and in denial. Kudos for ...something I guess. I'll find something for you to be proud about, or I'll ask a buddy for some ideas.
