Title: H&S or TTE
Post by: alancdavis on March 10, 2006, 20:18
I WOULD LIKE OPINIONS AS TO THE BEST TWIN PIPE EXHAUST TO CHOOSE REGARDING STYLE AND LOOKS,,,PREFORMANCE AND SOUND

H&S HAVE QUOTED ME AROUND £400 FITTED AND I NOTE THAT SILVERSTONE PREFORMANCE SUPPLY AND FIT A TTE FOR £454 OR £401 SUPPY ONLY

DAMM CAP LOCK IS STUCK AGAIN    s:oops: :oops: s:oops:

Alan

Plenty of info on both TTE and H&S, try the search function (  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:  ) it will turn up soundtracks of both.

I've the TTE which I like but if I was looking now I'd like to have Graham's (Dimwit) exhaust because it looks so made for the 2.

That seems very cheap as mine was quite a bit more a while back in a group buy  s:? :? s:?  I think the H&S looks better as it can be tailored to what you want; and it definately sounds lounder if thats what you like  s8) 8) s8)

I think the H&S sounds great, and there's a good bit of choice available in terms of tip styling too. I reckon you only get the full benefit from these things after a de-precat (for flow) and CAI (for grumble) though.

I've got a redundant Sportsauspuff if you're really stuck  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

Silverstone Performance are currently working on a exhaust system that is on there TTET and will be able to be used on a N/A car. Having seen it I can say it looks great and sounds slightly louder than TTE but not to loud you sound like a biy racer.

Dont know when it will be ready but it is being made by a company that makes exhausts for a F1 team  s:) :) s:)

H&S beats TTE hands down, far more of a grumble, and a good 2-3dB louder when pre-cats are gutted and Apexi intake fitted.

Don't know about the Apexi, but I would agree the same without it!

The Turbo chaps will be selling theirs soon soon.....get it much cheaper than £400   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

yep, fraid i'll be keeping mine, the TTET is designed for after market exhausts to be used. So back off you lot, my TTE is staying where it is

Hi all

This is my first time on the site, been hiding in the shadows, so be gentle with me  s:) :) s:)  . I had my system made by Blueflame in Jan of this year. Looks and sounds great for me any way. Cost was £365 all in. I think it was the first time they had done on a later model, so I think the price would be around the £400 plus VAT.

Just a pic of my remus twins which i fitted last weekend, very basey when on the gas especially when driving down country lanes with hedges on either side.Seems to free engine up a bit, revs easier.

just for anyone that doesn't know the Remus and the TTE exhaust are the same, Remus make the TTE but produce it with oval tips rather than the round ones on there own version

I fitted the TTE exhaust a week back. To be very honest, it seem to have restrictive effect . The car certainly seems a little slower! The extra 'power' at 4,200rmp, when the cam timing changes seems to have gone. I might take the 2 in for a rolling road tune to see if they can improve it.

Have you reset the ECU after you fitted the exhaust ?
Title:
Post by: Anonymous on March 22, 2006, 15:03
No, I hadn't thought of that.
If I remember correctly I just need to disconnect the battery for a few mins and that will reset the ECU. Is that correct?

Thanks

Nathan
Title:
Post by: kanujunkie on March 22, 2006, 15:21
yes, disconnect it for about 15mins

My local Toyota agent has quoted me £439 to supply and fit a twin pipe TTE,,,,,is that about average  s:?: :?: s:?:

Well recommeded mod to the 2.

Amazingly, it seems to have worked! The sluggishness between 4-5k has now gone.

I assume the ECU 'learns' and alters the engine settings depend on previous history? Or is it just me imagining that it has improved!

Thanks

yes it goes into a learn mode for a while which is why you should take it out for a decent drive straight away. You should have also cleaned the MAF as well as that needs a reset after doing too. We dont know a lot about the ECU to be honest as Mr.T has never released any details on it. This is also the reason why the TTET has a piggyback ECU, even they couldn't get the code

MAF?

What is this? I promise I have searched the forum but cannot find anything about it. I assume Main Air Filter?

If so, my car is still new, only 7,000km on the clock. I was thinking of changing the air filter and maybe I should now that I have the twin TTE system, BUT I would rather not make the car any noisier (inside) that is is already. Do they make a TTE air filter system or a new induction kit maybe?

Thanks

NO, Mass Air Flow sensor, the black sensor just after the air filter box

regarding the ECU does it have to be reset if you gut the precat?

No. But it never hurts to do so.
