Sounds like an exhaust leak

I wish that were the case, that would be an easy fix LOL.

The description says the exhaust is old and rusty, so yeah, it's likely a leak. Other than that I don't hear anything wrong, except that you've got one of those damned fart boxes...

GAH! Tis not a fart box LOL The tone is WAY too deep! The fart boxes sound more like Kazoos when they speed up lol. But I get where you are coming from. Unfortunately there arent too many ways to get a different exhaust for HP without getting some sort of tone like that, as far as I know. And stock exhaust doesnt give ya much LOL.

Plus, I just honestly dont like the engine sound so I get exhaust to mask it hehe.

Trade it in for a real car, like a Chevelle or Camaro ^^

I've never understood that "fart cannon" comment. While chambered mufflers sound nice, for performance's sake, a straight through exhaust is superior for velocity and lower backpressure.

Ponybird, If you don't like the engine sound, might I recommend getting something like the dynomax vt? It uses a valve that opens and closes with exhaust pressure.

It's quiet at idle and just tooling around, and gets the sound you want when you put your foot into it.

I forgot to mention, the old Dynomax VT had an issue where the valve would clang, but apparently that issue has been solved.

You won't get no disagreement that straight pipes are best for horsepower, but consider the fact that it's a street car and likely isn't tuned or built to be hot enough to really benefit from straight pipes. And for the most part the cars that sport these "fart boxes" aren't hopped up at all, usually just Civics and Acuras with body kits by teens who wish they were in the Fast and the Furious movies.

I agree with you on this, in that I wont be putting a kit on my car, and I see kids all the time doing that lol and its funny when my small stock corolla stomps them, but in the long run, I will be trying to get into legal drag races and the like when I am finished. I wanna use a car that people dont give a whole lot of credit even though I know it will cost me a lot. Im excited and believe me when I say I have EVERY intention of making this car worth spending money on.

Good luck with that, it's an expensive venture.

I'm gonna stick with illegal drag racing, so I can take them kids for everything they're worth. They're gonna pull up beside me and see a "grandpa" car, but that car's packing heat.

That is sooooo coool

Thank you!

Wendy has you beat!

LOL Wendy wasnt running for quite some time so she is disqualified LOL. Plus this exhaust is rattling its own baffles out lol so even if she COULD keep up, it would only be due to the fact that its faulty atm LOL! And you must also consider that my exhaust goes all the way through whereas your is chopped off at about half your car! Hmm but if you think you got me beat, put up a video ^_~ Lets hear it!

the pipe goes out the side and wendy is get a 4.7l inline 6 ,with a supercharger installed atm. but after its in you bet your ass i'll post a vid.

LOL alright then once I have my turbo finished, we can go head to head and see who is the bigger beast ^_~

well Wendy is clearly the beast. I mean look at her, sure we'll go "HEAD to HEAD" but i think Wendy would destroy your car!

LOL You think that now, but in an all out run, you would be at a total loss!

what a race? i thought you ment a demo-derby, you did say "HEAD to HEAD!" lol I'll take being a tank and going slow then fast and made out of paper! lol i love ya man just giving yeah a hard time!

I know ^_^ *hugs* Im just teasing back! How have you and the Zombie killing beast been?

see's getting a much need make over. shes over 300,000miles years old!

Its almost time for my beast to get some new paint. But before I do that, I want to get my new body...Spray on tan it is for now! LOL.

What all have you done to your car performance wise?

Honestly, Nothing besides my exhaust. I havent really wanted or needed anything other than the exhaust. But I will be changing that up pretty soon here.

No offense meant, but this is exactly what I have against ricers. Noise, but nothing to back it up! lol

This is my project, and I call 'er "Heavy Metal". Cos she's mah one way ticket to midnight!

She's just about ready to run

lol My 2zzge engine can usually back itself up LOL.But I WILL be fixing it up! I dont wanna be one of those cosmetic only cars. Maybe one day when we are both ready we can have a race for fun!

I'm expecting between 375 - 400 HP and up to 475 feet pound of torque out of my big block, which is twice the HP output and almost three times the torque. :3

Granted my car weighs 1,000 lbs more, but there's a lot of room for loving in my car ;)

Oh really? ^_^ That sounds great! When I am FINALLY finished with my engine I will be getting about the low 400's WHP. Im not sure about torq

Not to rain on your parade, but your engine isn't going to see 400 WHP without ALOT of work. The BHP for your engine is about 185 HP stock.

To go from 185 HP at the flywheel to 400 HP at the wheels will require thousands of dollars. We're not talking a chip and a cool air intake here. You're gonna have to pull that engine and upgrade the internals to parts that can handle the stress, cos your likely gonna need to boost.

Yup! I am planning on spending 5-7k on it ^_^ I went into it knowing it would take a HUGE amount lol and I am currently saving up for it! It WILL take me a while to do it! but I will get it all done hehe!

Good god man, I'm lucky to sink 2K on my engine.

Anyway, you should consider contacting someone who knows a bit more about your type of car. You're jumping 3 - 4 times the original power output and may have to make modifications to your drivetrain. I don't know enough about your car to say whether or not your transmission and axels could handle the extra energy.

I do have a few of my friends doing the research for me ^_^ They are the brains in what I need to get and put into my car, I am the money LOL. Although I am being sure to learn as much as I can along the way. Its tough because there are a lot of things I dont understand but they explain them to me!

Pretty much they are making a list, and I will be putting that list into my car. The hardest part after that, will be learning how to drive my car again hehe.

I'm kinda jealous, I don't have that kinda luxury to have good enough income to buy expensive shit for my car. If I did I can tell ya now my engine be a good 150 lbs lighter >_>

Ain't NOTHING light about a Big Block... @_@;

But yeah, I'll be in the same boat about learning how to drive my car again. The original engine in my Chevelle was a 400 CI small block V8 with about 180HP, I'm transplanting a 402 Big Block which is significantly heavier, with at least 2x the power and 3x the torque output.

She ain't gonna handle as well as she used to.

Please, dont be jealous! Its going to take a LONG time to save up for that LOL I Wish I had the money to drop it all at once hehe. So it will take us both a little time to get our cars up to par for us hehe. OH! I didnt even tell you! In the end, I wanna try to find a muffler that will give me performance, but keep the sound stock! I wanna make it a sleeper! You wont hear the turbo or exhaust!

Well, with your goal and budget your car will surpass mine; but I'm more interested in a peppy street machine.

As for finding a muffler, to hit 400 WHP your engine will have to be around the 500BHP mark; at that point you're better off not trying to make it a sleeper cos then you'll just be wasting money.

If you want a sleeper I'd suggest about 350 BHP. With the weight of your car that would be more than plenty. And you won't have to sexually assault your wallet so violently to get to that point.

Hmm, that does sound Very Reasonable! Well I will have to see what my guys come up with and see what we can do from there! ^_^ Thanks for having this conversation with me! It was a good one! Please do keep in touch okay? ^_^

,,,Im not sure about torque though. And yeah my car only weighs like 2400 I think. It would still be fun though! And lol My car is too small for lovings >.>;; ^_^

I looked it up, your car is about 2800 lbs :3

Every time I see this riced out Toyota, I giggle like my own fart tickled my ballsack.

You just made me laugh my ass off

LOL! If you dont shut up right now, Im going to kick you SQUARE in the Moose!

Nice car. Nice hair. :)
Can I call you Back Gile. our will you sonic boom my ass? :D
But seriously, I do like the hair.

LOL! That would be funny! No one made that reference yet!

Really? It's the first thing I thought of when I saw it.
Have they made any Kid, from Kid and Play references?

Is it soft or stiff?
...
I'm talking about the hair!
lol

It honestly depends on the day hehe. it can be either way when I wake up! And yes, mostly its Kid lol!

I'm sorry I'll never get to hear what this was destined to sound like... it would have been such a monster, and to see it come together would have been such an awesome adventure to look back on...

But now that will never be.
