TSiWRX Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 +1 maybe the bigger tips sound better Bigger tips launch babies farther!

CobaltForge Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I'll see what I can do about sound clips. I haven't tried to do that before, so I'll have to fiddle a bit. Gimme a day of two. Cool thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo_GT Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Congrats on you purchase Did you find it a bitch to get the two tail pipes to sit in the cut outs equally? Mine still don't look equal! Waiting on sound clips too! My car is the Australian version and would love to hear this exhaust on your car - mine doesn't sound that great cos of the t/scroll and equal length headers...

JuxtaGT Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 Still no sound clips, but you guys wont like them anyways, I have GPMoto EL headers, no boxer rumble. It's still pretty quiet, I don't notice in the car so much. I thought getting the tips equal was really easy. Just loosen the connection a little bit and tweak until the measuring tape says the same on both sides. That's the nice part about haveing the swivel connections to the mufflers. As for the tips, I love them now. I smile when I see my car. When I see stock ones now, one word comes to mind, puny! Power wise, it has made the least differnence compared to the other exhuast mods I've made. But, it's muuuuuch smoother now. Now, the last piece, the TMIC.........

Mui01 Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 nice system but i dont like the tips, hows the sound? feel any faster? There are two different exhausts, and its sounds very low db. Not a cheap note like many other exhaust system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghibli99 Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Those look amazing... I always told myself that if I ever swap out my exhaust system, I'm going with Fujitsubo. -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonardo Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 one day I'll be able to stop spending on engine internals and brakes and get the exhaust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoombaru Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 After much waiting and wondering, I picked up my Fujitsubo exhaust on Monday, and installed it the same night. Did you install this exhaust with the car on the ground? on jack stands? on a ramp? I'm asking because doing mods like this without a lift has always amazed me. I just can't make myself do it without a lift, and I don't have a lift in my home's garage, so I don't have a custom exhaust. Paying labor for someone else to do it just feels wrong and expensive. Gratz on a purchase and a job well done. -- Zoombaru [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] My LGT on CarDomain (Check it & give a fellow LGT a 5-rating) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKonBLACK Limited Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 for a exhuast work(UP,DP,Catback) you only need jack stands, you can do a catback with a pair of ramps(i would recommend stands tho). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 ^ +1. I did just that - UP/DP/full cat-back (the latter two equates to a turbo-back, if you've ditched the stock 3rd cat section), plus swapped out the stock manifolds for ported, polished, and coated units (including a coated Injen SES cross-pipe), on jackstands. Easily done. Just jack the car as high as you can. You'll be just fine. One note is that you will have to break-off this such an installation into two parts - so that you can access each individual end of the vehicle. The 3rd cat section can be serviced from either end at your preference. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuxtaGT Posted August 9, 2006 Author Share Posted August 9, 2006 ^+2 My car goes up on jack stands almost every weekend to do something to the car. I'm paranoid about being under my car though. I use a second jack stand stand on each side to back up the first. I also use a set of wheel chocks too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo_GT Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I installed my exhaust on ramps. I too am paranoid of it rolling away/ramps breaking/etc/etc. I put blocks of wood (roof beam of cuts) under the car just in case and I never go under that car if i'm by myself.

I also use a second set of jack-stands as "emergency backup" - if I'm going to be under the vehicle for any extended length of time. Can't be too safe. If I'm just "in-and-out," I'll usually just set up the floor-jack as an emergency backup. And definitely, chock the wheels. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Yup, that was the BL5 fitment. I think it is perfect in terms of how far it sticks out. I'll be able to post better pics later tonight of the rear profile. Is it really BL5 (sedan) or BP5 (wagon)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Bump. Nice exhaust. I am tempted. I generally don't dig these big tips, but this exhaust somehow is appealing. Maybe it's because of these thick tips walls? I am worried that these are not stealthy enough. I really don't want to attract attention So give us update after driving with Fujitsubo for a while? Still happy? Any issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still happy? Any issues? Its sounds really awsome, very similar to Borla, but better. After the Up and Down pipes replace its a little lourder, but not too loud to be noticable. I get ask all the time what Catback I am using, but they don't like the price when asked about the price. One of the pricer mods, but well worth it.
