Hey,

What would you guys recommend for an exhaust system for a b16a2?

2.5 or 2.25 piping?

extractors 4-1 or 4-2-1?

and what type of cat?

brands xforce ok?

If you could help me that would be great..

Thanks Guys.

2.25..
if your car is a daily driver then 4-2-1 for low end
if it's track.. 4-1 for top end

i have a 2.5 inch zorst with 4-2-1 header (to consensate lag) it does well for me...im happy with is...especially top end....

if u go for a 2.25 inch zorst id say get a 4-1 header to make some gains on top end...

end of the day its different strokes for different blokes....so its your call.

I have xforce 4-2-1 headers on 2.25" piping. They made a huge diff to low end. i used to have 2.5" piping would never go back hated it as i found better gains from the 2.25". the xforce headers are great but i havn't tried anything else out to compare but i rekon they great value for money.

I dont care what anyone says, My B16A has cat-back 2.5" under-axle and it has an awsome top-end.. and a deep non-raspy sound.

2.25" with 4>2>1 for low and mid scavengine power, or if you like to race, go 2.5" with 4>1 header.. which is what i'd do.

2.25" piping is good enough, go 2.5" if you have forced induction, else it's a waste of money for little gain (if any at all).

4-2-1 headers (a.k.a extractors) are good for daily drive, and not so noisy, but if you really want to hoon around like a mad motherf_cker, then go 4-1 for high end power.

reckon it should be ok im guessing....but if you only just have an auto and really want your car to sound bit tougher....just get a muffler. personally reckon auto cars wit exhausts sound stupid......

I got 2.25 press bned from cat back to a x-force twin loop. jap 4-2-1 headers and high flow cat. sounds good but still quiet, which is what i like. for street i woulndt get 2.5. But for track/circuit where u want top end 2.5 is better.
