Thanks man, appreciate that! 🙌 So far so good - no leaks or anything like that. If they do go out at some point I'd probably replace them w/ something from Vibrant.

Yeah you'll def need to open it up with a 3" full exhaust! I think the brand was tsudo, but all of the 3" exhausts on ebay for the 1.8t seem pretty similar.
@@supercarmio if you use a torque wrench with an impact socket and you're struggling to crack it but then you hear/feel a pop and then its loose....that stud done snapped off in the turbo housing ..theres resistance all the way out when removing them.

@@I53-624 42dd makes some high quality stuff. They also sound great. I would be confident running their stuff. Sounds like a nice mod list. Would definitely go 3" unless you are concerned about a louder exhaust.
Man you really have a wide variety of cars, a great selection too. Also, you look slightly like Ethan from H3H3 haha.
Haha I can see the resemblance, that's hilarious! Thanks man
It's already catless right? It didn't trow any codes? Like p0420 because it's catless?
Yes, the turboback comes w/o a cat - I have a tune that codes out the rear o2 - so no code for me.
Can you teach me how to tune so I don't have a code.
Awesome video, I have wondered what these exhausts where like to install. How have the gaskets held up, that was one thing, I heard went out early?

Subscribed, great taste in cars and love the FC RX7 We have a lot of the same cars except the RX7, great content and work sire.
Appreciate that man, thanks for the support!
yo, love the wheels. where did you get them? and also what tires fit them?
thanks man! they actually came off my evo 8 (oem enkeis) - 235/45R17 tires.
Very solid content, too. You've earned a sub. from me. Looking forward to all of your builds man, keep it up.
Thank you so much for the compliments and sub. you da man!
Can anyone link this turboback system? Also if im running stock ecu will this give me a check engine light and fail emissions?

@@Peterv832 np! They look very very similar, possibly longevity? But I can't say for sure.
what exhaust is it? I bought a 3" catless downpipe on amazon but hooked it up to the rest of the stock exhaust and it needs to be louder!!

@@supercarmio thanks for the reply!
Did you just screw back in those two studs that came out?
yep, luckily I was able to separate the nuts from them. just cleaned them up and they were good to go
Those studs were broken ..if you didnt know ..those studs are longer than that
@@MFullaStyle Hmm seemed like there was a lot of engagement when putting them back in. I'll have to re-investigate. Thanks for the heads up

I saw you linked the O2 sensor that you got. Did you just order 1 and only install it on the pre-cat or was it both?? (Might be a dumb question)
Not a dumb question at all! I just replaced the pre-cat o2, as my cat efficiency is deleted from my tune (no need for the post o2 sensor).
supercarmio gotcha! Do you know if that 02 sensor that you linked would work for both pre and post cat sensors?
@@seand1701 I know they are different, 5 pins vs 4 iirc. I believe the post is 16121

Just installed the exhaust today! Thanks again for answering my questions! Sounds amazing for $150

Should I get a turbo back or cat back for my 1.8t it makes 220whp
Damn that's a healthy amount, what setup? Def a turbo back. I'd argue the downpipe makes the biggest difference.

What. Rand exhaust?
I believe the brand on ebay was Tsudo
Well Holy shit that sounds good for a 1.8t lol, could you please link me to the eBay brand you bought it from? Thanks
haha thanks man, I think it does too. I can't find the exact one I bought, but it looked a lot like this one: www.ebay.com/itm/190754401668
