will the exhaust silencer harm the engine or turbo?

[zero2hundred]

im putting 3" straight flow piping with 3"exhaust, i felt so noisy so decide to fix up my exhaust silencer...the silencer inlet comes around 2.2inch only at the back end there..so will it be harmful towards my engine or either turbo or not ?? pls advise....thank you

think ur engine will suffocate due to the restricted flow..

 

[veilsideboyz]

Turbo love straight flow...
my car also straight flow...let it loud man !!

get a bigger (oval shud do the trick, FGK may have the size u need) and longer silencer / mid bullet

hmm i doesnt want it loud, as flowing restriction so i forced to put straight all the while so i hv no choice so i hooked up with multiple brands of exhaust still cant reduce the sound till i got tanabe medalion with silencer at least its better....then now worry bout the flow..!! I heard bout fgk, but mostly are quite big..i mean the size of the entire thing not the inlet...its not quite suitable for my hatchback..my perfect choice still goes to apexi mandrel type with straight flow exhaust or mr2 turbo catback with custom 3inch is just nice...!!! still havent found any yet >.<

Hey fren,

Do not put silencer for turbo car. As this will make the pressure back to your engine & turbo. It will harm your engine & turbo as well. I experience it on my previous turbo car.

Don't put the silencer. Your exhaust is Tanabe Super Medalion? If yes, dont put silencer as the sound damn great...As I am using it as well...Lolz...

Does the silencer harm N/A cars as well?

im not sure if its a super medalion ..the picture will be like as below ...since it came with silencer so i thought is alrite to put that..seems like silencer is not recommendable..i think i shud just have it pulled off ... thanks for the info ..

 

[veilsideboyz]

[zero2hundred]

im running with silencer too...
all i can say there is some back pressure problem with silencer..so whenever using silencer dont push ur car too hard...
weekdays my car run with silencer..good fuel saving.weekend without silencer...can see a lot of different fuel and power...

Yes. This is the one. I am using it too...Trust me. With silencer, you only able to drive normally & you can't press your car to high RPM for NA car & can't have boost for turbo car as both will harm the engine.

What's your purpose on putting the silencer? If you want to save from roadblocks, I suggest you can install the Apexi or Arospeed exhaust bypass valve where this is totally silence & u can use it when passing by roadblocks.

My suggestion is just let it be as with silencer, d sound sucks bro...

And what if someone let you hear blow-off sound bside u while u on silencer & u worried to boost your car? Hehe....

Generally it will hard NA car as well...Don't shoot me ah. Any sifu? Correct me if I am wrong

My opinion : N/A put silencer for keep more back pressure F/I no need silencer :wavey:

Haha....Conclusion, keep your silencer inside your storeroom as what I did....Lolz...

 

[veilsideboyz]

if thats wat u want just bring down ur boost to stock la..no need to take out silencer anymore...

 

[zero2hundred]

i just boosting 1bar at current only, if i manage to find quieter exhaust i think i'd just switch...just want peace n quiet with a lil performance ride now... medalion sound are not bad afterall just that too noisy if driven daily....
