need bb Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Any reason why there is a new version of the TurboXS downpipe? Is this going to be available before the end of the year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 The new downpipe will be available within a few weeks. The reason is to allow a few more options with regards to cats. Before, like with mine, you could only have one cat. Now, you have the option of having two cats. I'll probably swap over to the new DP when it is ready. High quality is an obsession of mine. TXS delivers. You guys won't be disappointed. I'll get pricing asap for you all.

coldmm803 Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I look forward to seeing more on this for the sedan. Don't know if I missed it in the photos but do you know if there will be a resonator to decrease/prevent raspiness? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compsurge Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I like the photo of the cv boot Stromung just took another one out... Looks excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 Update!!!! Fitment photos were sent to Australia, another prototype is being built now to be shipped over. Why another prototype? This one will have a flex section and a resonator in it. Once that fit-check is done, everything will be go for production. The mid-Y will be available as soon as possible. Mufflers are still in the works, but should be done soon. They'll be available separately when they come out. Finally, a pick-and-choose exhaust! Sorry for the slow updates. I've been working on cooking up something else over the past week or so. Not Subaru related, but probably one of the coolest automotive development side-projects out there.

GEE-OTTO Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Resonated sounds nice. Im sure this will make many Turbo guys happy that (like me) can't find the right exhaust setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compsurge Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Shame I jumped on Stromung boat. I'm sure it's going to sound awesome, but maybe too loud. This, on the other hand, might have been what I was looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been working on cooking up something else over the past week or so. Not Subaru related, but probably one of the coolest automotive development side-projects out there. A big, third muffler style resonator by chance? Looking forward for another thread about this other cool project... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 Probably not a muffler style resonator. Not enough room, really. The other project is not Subaru related, unfortunately. I might be able to post something about it after I finish it up, and we are in live production though.

BAC5.2 Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 I was over at TXS today, actually. It should only be another week or so before the new prototype mid/y gets here! The mufflers are still under development, though, since they are original design pieces. Hopefully they won't be far behind the mid though.

compsurge Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 $5 says this gets fully designed and shipped before I get my replacement stromung y-pipe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 That's a bet I wouldn't take. The longest part of this whole process has been the mufflers. It's not like you are just punching out some sheet metal, welding a perf-pipe into it, and pushing fiberglass into the openings. This is actually a step beyond that kind of "custom" muffler. These are Subaru specific. I'm really excited to see what comes of it, but it will be unlike anything else on the market.

compsurge Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I am as well. Chances are I will be selling the stromung and potentially going with a system like this - great concept and the modularity is fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xero287 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Why does TurboXS always make the best stuff lol. I've always been jealous of my brother's 4 inch downpipe -_- the thing looks like the chamber for a canon XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is very interesting so are they making a muffler that handles the odd pairing of boxer engine exhaust pulses better than other OTS mufflers?

Those of us with ELH still going to sound good? (never mind just re-read TRSCobra's thread and you answered this in post #6) Is the design of this entire system aimed at being quiet? Like quieter than SPTv2? I only ask since you first introduced this system in TRSCobra's thread: "How much interest do people really have in a quiet high-flow exhaust?" http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/much-interest-do-people-really-have-quiet-high-flow-exhausti-162858.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattg Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I like that it bolts to OEM mufflers. Maybe I'll bolt some TXS muffs up to my Perrin mid & Y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
