Exhaust System

awj2005 · **August 04, 2008, 15:52:20**

hi fellas,

while surfing the net tonight i found a website that sells full exhausts systems for the i30. the say its a "sports exhaust" but it doesnt look that different to the one on the i30 atm. do u think it would be a good upgrade or would you say leave it alone?

cheers

Hi, i know none of u guys really look/reply to this but here goes.

yesterday i got a cannon muffler put onto my petrol i30 nd it looks nice, but gives it that ricer look lolz.

cannon cost me 69 bux and installation was 85 so it was something cheap.

will load pics on prob this wkend sometime to show ya's wat happened.

hi,
before i did this to my car i was told by a muffler place it wouldnt go onto my car for some funny reason. the reason this place told me was that they had done a couple of hyundai'ls and they have played up after doing them (was told this couple of months ago) then i though F*** that im gonna do it if it does stop i'll but the old one bak on if it doesnt it doesnt so yeah so far its really good.

cheers ash

Hi Ash

Thanks but they are a bit small

(if you email some bigger ones to me I'll reload them via photo bucket...)

By bigger I mean at least 100kbs and 400 -600 Pixels each way...

Looks good Ash :?:

hey guys,
sorry bout that daz they came off my fone as i couldnt find my camera... grr.
i shall take some bigger ones some time this week.

as for sound it sounds nice has a really low grumble at low revs and it screams at high revs. for 69 bux and 85 bux to get it installed im happy with it.

cheers

Nice muffler awj2005,;-) but i prefer a full exhaust kit with a 4-2-1 header. A whole lot more power. I think u should target a full exhaust from korean imports or maybe shark racing.

hey mate,
yeah i know, all i really wanted was a purr cause my old car was not too loud but loud enough and the i30 was just to quiet for my liking so i put it on, in the future im going to be doing some decent mods to it but yeah as i said all i wanted was a purr and i got one.

cheers
ash

How much did it cost u??

awj2005 · **Reply #12: January 05, 2009, 05:17:44**

for just da cannon it was 69 bux from repco nd 80 bux to install it

hey guys,

a little while ago i had the stock hyundai muffler and resonater can removed and a small lukey muffler fitted
doing this gave me a better fuel economy and low rpm torque it sounds really good aswell it makes sorta like a drum roll whilst changing gears
i then fitted a K&N high flow air intake filter and that has increased low rpm torque i think the secrect to getting you i30 running better i just letting it breath a lot better,
muffler fitted was 400 Aud including a nice stainless tip and removing the stock hyundai stuff plus a K&N Air filter Was about 100 Aud
and the best part is it hasnt voided the warranty

Lovely Kalgoorlie, where all your whites are pink!

I lived and worked in Kal for 13 years, but moved back to Perth 8 years ago. Loved my time there. Met my wife there and all my 3 kids were born there.

Hi Guys Here are some more pictures of what i have done to my exshuast system over the last few days i have removed the muffler altogether (leaving only the flange for easy removal ) and made a Y piece join for the twin pipes coming out the back with some nice chrome tips

Dazzler · **Reply #23: January 27, 2009, 08:19:53**

Looks good m8.. nice mod (how does it sound?)

I forget.. is it a diesel or a petrol (you took your badge off

)

NDT07 · **Reply #24: January 27, 2009, 10:03:31**

gday darryl,

Shes a 2.0 litre petrol, its sounds really good it coughs downshifting and just sounds beasty in general id upload a video if i knew how

Dazzler · **Reply #25: January 27, 2009, 10:20:08**

That would be good

...you need to upload it to Rapidshare or one of those other video host sites and post a link for us...

Someone might be able to tell us which is the easiest and what size file is manageable...

I've got a straight through 2 ands a half inch system with a sports muffler (from the cat back) on my diesel.. it sounds quite good "under load"

EymaTeapot · **Reply #26: January 27, 2009, 11:15:49**

Yeah Ntd, That does look hot.

Hemmi · **Reply #27: January 27, 2009, 11:37:04**

cool

Did you get the idea from me?

NDT07 · **Reply #28: January 27, 2009, 11:47:22**

sorry hemmi but nup i didnt i thought it would look good and it sounds great,
other i30 owners here in kalgoorlie give me a few envious looks haha

eye30 · **Reply #29: January 27, 2009, 19:20:10**

Great mod but looking at the underside it seems to have a bit of discolourment/rust on frame/body bits/petrol tank?

Mines really clean etc and is 16 months old.
