Greddy Type-S Recirculated

Although I played a little with the tension yesterday and I got it to sound more like a whoooosh. Similar to "Whoosh on the Track" on the FM TV page. http://www.flyinmiata.com/video/index.php?no=2

It was a Cobra with a Bell supercharger!!!! It was insanely fast, so was the Blue Evo, even that civic hatchback with the engine swap!

yeah I got five comments that day that I have a ghost car....you saw it haul ass but you couldn't hear it one bit. I had a 2.5" DP, 2.5" high flow cat, to a 2.25" Borla Dual exhaust. It has a good note, it's just not loud.

I was thinking about a 2.5 inch down pipe leading into 2.5 inch exhuast into a dynomax turbo muffler, kinda like a factory look , then have a 2.5 pipe leading out the back. :bigtu:

I have the type-s on my turbo with both lines hooked up. It gives an insanely loud whistle when it lifts. Put it like this, you don't hear my exhaust when I am blocks away - you hear my BOV. Definitely the loudest at any auto-x that I have heard. I pulled the 2nd hose off it once and it lost all the volume. I only ran like that for a few minutes before I hooked it back up because I missed the sound.

hmmm I gotta try it with the 2nd port plugged in...I only ran it that way when it was VTA, it held it closed pretty good that way.

Sounds about right! I've been driving around more today and noticed that I tightened it too much, so back to chirping I go.

RicanmiataRacer 08-24-2006 08:37 PM

Hmmm...I don't know why , But I really enjoy that sound the type-s bv makes, always wanted one since the need for speed underground 2 game came out, well I finally got my hands on one for my car , hurray

I have the HKS SSQv and it is by far the best sounding!

ColoradoSpringsMiata 08-25-2006 09:09 AM

yeah i've always liked the greddy type s. i used to like the HKS ssqv but so many people run it so i kinda lost the interest. ill see though.
