F1 starting

Thats nice i wonder how a 355 with straight pipes sounds you tested it?. I know some people here switch between exhausts. Maby running straight pipes on the street. For emission test and on race tracks they use cats and silencers for getting under 100db.

my exhaust system is with the straight pipes, tubi call it test pipes, just two pipes with o2 sensor connection that replaces the cat.. It's crazy loud and awesome backfire. At night blue flames can be seem when shifting gears quickly

Whoa... Kuwa!

No muffler at all! Bloody hell - it must be DEVASTATINGLY loud! Probably sounds exactly like a Formula 1 car.

Has there been a discernible power increase and have you remapped the ECU....

I'd be interested to know what kind of BHP you're getting...

It does sound very much like a F1, or as close as a car can get.I have not touch the ECU, but My mechanic maintain ferrari race cars for the challenge series, he remove this little metal filters regulating air going into the engine, he said that increases the air flow by 33% and I've installed the tubi air filter and the exhaust system. not really sure what the HP gain is, but it sure feels faster and engine feels looser. I'll get dyno tested oneday if I can find a good shop.
