🚨 COMING SOON: SBX Performance FL5 / DE5 Catted Downpipe 🚨

[SBX Performance]

Completely Stock DE5 Testing

No codes found and more sound. Customer said more pops and bangs heard and feels quicker but could be the louder tone LOL

Videos of stock downpipe and stock exhaust vs SBX downpipe with stock exhaust.

Thak you for this!

If possible id try to get a FL5 with factory exhaust/resonator delete to try it too. Here why.

De5 already has resonator delete but also the pops abd bangs.

Fl5 has a horrible exhaust sound and people spend thousands on an exhaust only to add crap sound and maybe one horsepower. This is a great alternative and will sound better. Plus when ready to unleash power, they can tune for the downpipe.

Thank you for your insight and suggestion. I am working on front pipe right now next then continuing with hopefully a better sounding option than whats on the market. Agreed all exhausts sound like crap mostly on the FL5 LOL In my blog I said stop wasting money on exhaust systems it should be the last thing to do on a build. I will post videos of it on other cars too before and after. The 4 inch elbow really opens it up a bit. Tomorrow night is the Dyno. Fully stock car

Yeah everything I've been researching points me towards your conclusion, not worth it yet. I'll do a mid resonator delete then purchase a front pipe / downpipe / turbo then hit the fuel system once things stop catching on fire . I already have the canflex and I'm getting tuned by derik right now.

I don't have the money for all the pretty mods you guys do " family life " but love more power right from the get go and will spend money there first.

When I had my si I pretty much took the same approach and it worked out perfect. Difference is I'm never getting rid of this car. This one will pass down through generations.

Thank you for your work!

If you're taking ideas for an exhaust down the road, imo all you have to do is:

-make something slightly lighter than the stock one
-adjustable tips
-slightly louder than the type S exhaust
-OEM valve functionality maintained but the option to have the valve always on.
- make it look close to stock

Tuning the sound of course is the hardest part, just don't make it tinny.

Boom everyone on the forum buys, yw

and if you're going to make a valved exhaust, please for the love of whatever-you-believe in to make sure the valve DOESN'T rattle with the OEM valve actuator. More often than not every valved exhaust we've installed for customers regardless of brand rattles at some point no matter how much finagling you do with the actuator spring and it really turns us off to recommending aftermarket valved exhausts (unless they just plan to keep the valve open, which kind of defeats the purpose of a valved one to begin with)

Appreciate you and all your input always lol. I already have the CAD drawings of my plan cause I’m sick of the crappy sounding exhaust from this car. Kinda similar to my plans. I’m old I don’t like loud and drone lol Front pipe first though one thing at a time boys lol

Just get the downpipe, im sure it'll make it throatier and retain everything. Then maybe delete the resonator.

That way everything is retained andddd it'll add power when you tune. You can then add ITS pops and burble and it'll sound the same!

The correct approach for now. I had read somewhere people have 550ish with stock exhaust.

downpipe and front pipe is all you need until your maxed out and need the volume
