I have a Borla Axle back Type S exhaust , Aero performance resonator installed , Corksport CAI installed , And it sounds beautiful. Im thinking of doing thr mid pipe. Leaving the performance resonator helps keep tne sound leveled and not overly loud.
I can say for sure that its shit. Airfilter and external ecu is the most you can do but even that causes engine problems. Until its main ecu's security is cracked it wont be tunable. Engine mods cause too many problems. Its sensors are too sensitive
@@strength.culture not sure about that. Altough i do recommend extreme caution with this engine. Its very finnicky. You can run a piggyback box and a cone filter if you want. However i do then recommend to check your multibelt for damages quite often. Mine had to be replaced at 23.900km. Its a long life belt and shouldve been replaced at 200.000 km instead. Also the connector of the airflow sensor is very delicate. If that mofo breaks you are in a world of hurt. Your engine wont start anymore and there will be so many faults in your ecu that the dealership wanted to rip out and install an entire new primary cabletree. Eventually i convinced them to let a pro fix it (its an aluminum cable so soldering it is a b$#ch) that single connector cost me over 900 bucks. Thats when i decided to rip out everything snd revert to stock (engine that is ;) )
I love the sound I have the same vehicle do I cut back on the catalytic converter in the front or do you have a remote baffle pipe that opens please let me know that sound is awesome I need it
Well, I have the same engine and I just put a friedrich motorsport final section, but it sounds quite little. In your case, you have eliminated the intermediate and have put a straight section, right? thanks in advance
Valve systems have no impact on the engine etc. However depending on where you live the emissions or noise levels might be too high. I recommend closing the valve whenever you see cops etc. And also when going to the garage :p Also dont keep the remote in your car when you bring it to the garage, so they cannot open it
@@DanielMejia-zl5em well if you put it on jacks or a bridge like i did there is of course the rear muffler. But underneath the shiftknob (or thereabout) there is another box. I removed that too. I no longer have the car though so i cant check.
@dante c or if you mean the exhaust tips, just gold and black carbon ones from aliexpress. However since they are broken i ordered new remus tips red carbon to fit my interior and engine colors
Middle muffler delete and a vacuum exhaust cutout valve powered by a 12v compressor in the back. In total its like 600 bucks so its very manageable. It can be done cheaper if you use an electric valve but those easily break.
@@Master77best muffler is just replaced with a piece of treated steel tube, the valve is a generic exhaust valve using vacuum. Not a specific brand as far as i know
@@Master77best from the kathalysator its straightpiped to the exaust cutout which is before the muffler yes. There is plenty of room before the muffler in the dead center for a valve.
@@peterzosiak9159 my exhaust is also stock, i only changed the following: removed middle resonator/ straight piped to reae muffler. Did NOT remove rear muffler but instead placed an vacuum powered exhaust valve which is powered by a 12v compressor. I also changed the cosmetic exhaust tips to carbon and gold tips. (However i ordered red carbon remus to place)
@@tacotcr2633i see now that you have a X... Dose the car have a resonator, my has something in middle of cat and mufler? + did you rip out the OPF/GPF? + is it true that the compressor is used for bringing the air to the exhaust and not the engine? 😮
@@mariot.5178 the resonater was cut out, i beliebe the cat is staight after the engine as to prevent theft. The pipe is straight piped from the engine (after cat as removal is illegal here), to the original muffler (which i kept!) Just before the muffler is a valve. There are electric valves and air operated valves, (which imo are better) However as this car has electric brakes, the air-operated valve doesnt work. Therefore it has a small 12v compressor that operates the valve. An electric valve would be a better fit for the mazda 3. The compressor has no connection to the engine or exhaust itself whatsover
it fits this car's style that's how they should sound.

Hi, how do you install the aero performance resonator? I have a borla too, but afraid of cutting and soutering back the mid pipe...
I would love to see the tunability of this engine. Like after someone builds it
I can say for sure that its shit. Airfilter and external ecu is the most you can do but even that causes engine problems. Until its main ecu's security is cracked it wont be tunable. Engine mods cause too many problems. Its sensors are too sensitive

Mid muffler? Or resonator?

NICE👍

@@soulsofrevenge7823 yes, i straightpiped that bitch with a valve before the stock rear muffler.
lol that is so freaking awesome.
any performance improvement besides a better sound?
Not really except for an unrestricted airflow
Hej, what rims are that and which dimensions? I love them.
Bro those are OEM they’re just plasti dipped 😂
They are OEM, however its not plastidip. Its custom paint. Tool me 6 weeks to decide on the color though. Its a copper satin color.
@@tacotcr2633great color option 👌
Would this cause any issues if I try this on my sedan? (I have a 2021 2.5L skyactiv-g)

is 2.0 NA engine ???
@@桃色酒 yes!
Did you delete the resonator? From your insta pics it looks like just an exhaust cutout.
Its a cutout before the rear muffler, and the middle muff is deleted
@@tacotcr2633 i think by mid muffler, you are referring to the resonator right???
so it would be a resonator delete and the cutout before the muffler
@@DanielMejia-zl5em well if you put it on jacks or a bridge like i did there is of course the rear muffler. But underneath the shiftknob (or thereabout) there is another box. I removed that too. I no longer have the car though so i cant check.

Yes

which tips do you have?
Do the cutout!
@dante c or if you mean the exhaust tips, just gold and black carbon ones from aliexpress. However since they are broken i ordered new remus tips red carbon to fit my interior and engine colors
@@tacotcr2633 I can’t even see the carbon fiber surround, they honestly look like the stock tips on the 2021 turbo, that’s why I asked lol

Varies by country, and yeah works for skyG as well.

It’s NOT a mid muffler… you removed the resonator 😂
Idk the english word
Do a 0-69
Low but slow 😝
