DC Sports Catback Exhaust with DC Exhaust Header

People

In the market for a DC Sports Catback system, i will also be going down the line of de-cat with a new Manifold.

Question is, is the DC Header with the DC Exhaust the best pairing? or would an odd mash up (DC Catback and Japspeed/Piper Manifold) be better?

Your thoughts would be much appreciated.

Go for the full system.

But be aware you should be running K100 or KPro with a full system.

Chris, do you know how loud this combo would be and if it would be track day friendly?

 

[Chris.]

Sorry, I don't know.

 

[berty83]

Yeah, ive asked this question before, but had a few people say that its acceptable to run the full system without K100.
I trust your knowledge on this one, i'll just get the catback for now.

I think it will be fairly loud tbh, im currently running a spoon N1 + Spoon Bpipe and a gruppe M (and its not track day friendly) im after a manifold + decat next after i get myself KPRO

Spoon B Pipe and N1 are one of the loudest systems you can get for the EP3. The DC Sports is fairly quiet in comparison.

No worries. I'm still wanting a RM01A but having trouble finding one used and thought this set-up maybe a cheaper option.

They are are a quiet system compared to some around.

OK Cool, I will look into it further in that case and ask over on HOT if anyone's running this combo.

I have a dc sports cat back and manifold and it's not too loud, had a few good comments about the sound tbh

 

[berty83]

As a follow on to my original question, ive had the DC sports catback fitted, still in the market for a decat and manifold.
Has anyone paired a DC catback with a Japspeed mani and decat? Im asking because there is on fleabay at the minute.

 

[Chris.]

I hope you are getting your car mapped if you are getting a manifold?

 

[webbdog]

What would happen if he didnt get it mapped?

 

[Chris.]

His engine would risk running lean.

 

[webbdog]

Ah ok so you need KPRO after full exhaust or just decat b pipe

 

[Stoo.]

Decat and b pipe are different things bud.

Ideally, when you decat, you should get the ecu mapped too.

 

[Chris.]

There's also little to no benefit to power unless it's mapped.

 

[berty83]

Yes, thanks guys, just buying the parts first.
I'll probably go the K100 route as i dont plan on doing any more performance mods, if i want a faster car, i'll just buy one.

 

[Chris.]

If you are getting a K100 then I would advise getting the DC manifold as well to pair with the exhaust.
