Title: 2ZZ exhaust... TTE?
Post by: Andys-N20 on June 25, 2013, 21:08
As you may know I'm working on a 2ZZ swap.
After loads of research and all I am feeling confident. The only thing I'm unsure about is what exhaust system to get. I have seen PPE's full system at about £1200 delivered (after import tax and shipping) but it's a little pricey. Then there is Che's 2ZZ to stock cat manifold (and other brands too)
The car I have has a TTE exhaust on it already would che's manifold and a sports cat be any good?
How much power would I loose by not getting PPE's system?
Can anyone recommend someone who can fabricate a good system for it? Or would any local tuning company be able to do a good job?
I'm after performance and don't want it to be ridiculously loud.
Thanks in advance

Im pretty sure the TTE wont be up to the job

Id have a word with Loadswine about the exhaust he had made. Really good craftsman size. Fully custom and a very nice sound even on a turbo'd car. Sounds much better than my Cobra does now (which sounds more like a wet fart since turboing) and it isn't too boomy

The CHE only lasted 1 year for me then broke. I feel it's just not good enough quality for the extra abuse the 2zz gives.

Rogue made mine, works well 93dB.  They went up to 2.5" pipe as standard diameter strangled it.  The cobra dual exhaust it had on it when it went for a swap was so restrictive the back box went blue and buckled with the heat build up...

Thanks for that. It must sound awsome now   s:D :D s:D  .
Can I ask how much it cost?
Now you mention it, it's kind of obvious, I know they do these swaps but never thought to approach them, come to think of it I bet they have them on the shelf, If not will be able to fabricate one easy enough as they must have done a hundred.
I will give them an email right now.
Thanks
