Nameless will sell you a straight pipe for $99, it's actually not that loud if you have the stock cats and resonator still in place.

They are pretty flexible and will build almost anything you ask for that they are capable of, so if you asked them to build you a single exit with a muffler they probably would.

However the back of the car looks pretty terrible with a single exit exhaust.

A number of JDM tuners have actually made quad-tip exhausts. *barf*

Sorry been swamped in the shop doing production runs. Pulleys are being made right now. Shifter proto is great. hopefully we can figure out a good way to manufacture them in a cost effective/ timely manner.
Some bushings are also in the works.

Carbon intake tube is finally on the car, driving home tonight to see if the car blows up

updates.

Pulleys are inroute to me ATM, next week they should be bagged and tagged and ready to go.

Transmount should be off to get replicated shortly, were real happy with the results.

Shifter, Its been a tricky bitch. Were on rev who knows what. But its going to be sent through the 3D printer so we can test fit it shortly. soon is all i can say about those.


end links for the rear are working killer and should be on the site already.

You have failed to mention when production the carbon intake tube begins.


Weight of pulley? Had a Perrin on my WRX because I got it for a steal, but I would like a KB unit this time around.

EDIT: Tom, when's your rear shifter stay bushing coming? Perrin already has one out, but I'd rather have yours.

Were still thinking on the carbon tube. Sure it looks killer, but its very time consuming to produce a flawless finish. What kind of price would you pay?

Pulleys are right at 1 pound.

Rear shifter bushings are also being printed up for a prototype casting/part. Hopefully i'll have some testers ready for a few guys ASAP


On top of all that. Were due to have our second child in two days...

Oh wow, you've got your hands full! Early congrats on KBv2.1!

Need bushing testers?

With the inlet tube, wouldn't it need to be tuned? I see people getting away with all kinds of mods on these so far w/o tuning, but not sure if anyone is really paying attention to AFR or just "it hasn't blown up yet!"

Were not sure yet on the tube/ tune. we paid close attention to the diameters so in theory it shouldn't need to be adjusted, it just smooths out the kinks. one of these days i'll throw it back on the dyno and see. Or send it out to MachV and have dan play with it.

I guess it depends on how many hours you put into it, but I'd pay the going rate for a good intake system. So around $350? I'm eyeing the AVO intake assembly right now since the current options don't seem to make gains beyond noise. That carbon tube is simply BEAUTIFUL though. I'd love to make it the centerpiece of an otherwise stealthy engine bay. Do you have a ballpark figure on the tubes? Also, from the picture you posted it doesn't look the tube has a PCV return line; did you just remove that?

Excellent! I'd love to kill some of that delayed response when revving for a downshift. Feels like I have to hammer the pedal or hit it twice to get the revs just right...and I'm not about to do the work for a lightweight flywheel. Traditional low-key black pulley, right?

Please do let me know.

Congratulations

Unrelated note: I hate installing your exhaust hangers. Do you have a tip for getting them on/off? Is there a tool for that? Longest part of my Nameless axleback install was getting the suitcase out of the stock hangars. I ended up just leaving them on, but I want to put the KB hangars on when I put on the Nameless front pipe.
