thanks to everyone that helped me last night with installing my tbe, and getting rid of that POS setup that knowlage gave me. i really do appreciate it, it sounds and feels GREAT!
we worked on and off from about 10 to 130 when i drove off with smiles, mike and tom discovered that knowlage forgot to tighten, and even put a nut on the end of some of the bolts that attach the downpipe to the turbo, so we had to run to walmart to pick up some bolts.
That's good that it is all done and you are happy. What TBE did you get, I know the Stomung axel back?
no i think its actually much quiter, i think i cant recall exactlly how his sounds but its just barely noticable at 2-3500 rpms, but when you get on it its def there. its nice it has a deep smooth sound to it. im gonna try to make it to the install day on the 21st, so if you there you can hear it
Most likely won't go away. You will probably need to do one of the CEL Fixes, either Mechanical or Electrical. Not a big deal. Or you could always do Engine Management.
This exhaust is 3" Stromung divorced wastegate downpipe into 3" high-flow cat pipe terminating in 2.5" donut gasket into a 2.5" twin 76mm Stromung catback. Having the donut gasket connection where it necks down to 2.5" is the key to keeping it quiet. Glad it worked out well! Let me know if we can do anything to help in the future. I just got some more Stromung stuff in after waiting for it for 2.5 months!! Speed safely...
