New Magnaflow Exhaust for the GR Corolla!
Переглядів 7 тис.Рік тому
Hey guys! I'm back from my honeymoon and figured I would get the new Magnaflow exhaust installed on the GR Corolla! I did a lot of research and compared dozens of sound clips and decided that this was the best looking and sounding exhaust right now on the market for the GR Corolla. We had a few problems installing the valved system on the new exhaust but we'll address the problem in a different...

NEW Spoon N1 Exhaust for the FL5
Переглядів 21 тис.Рік тому
This is by far the nicest exhaust I have ever bought for any car I've owned in the past. This new Spoon N1 exhaust for the FL5 is a thing of beauty. If you're looking for an extra loud exhaust, this is not the exhaust for you.

After going with a set of black wheels and finding out I'm not too crazy about the look, I decided to change things up completely and get a new set of wheels that I think are more true to Honda heritage.
Honda STOPS All Sales For New Type R!

Many of you I'm sure have heard that Honda halted all sales for the FL5. Hopefully it's a quick fix and everyone can still purchase their new Type R! BTW, new camera and mic! Hopefully the audio and over quality is better.

I've now owned the new FL5 for a little over 2 months and I thought I'd share my true opinions on the car and what it's really like to own one. To everyone who hates on FWD platforms, this car will definitely change your mind on the matter.

Would love to see a video showing the springs installed and get your thoughts. Is the reverse rake look an issue with the fl5 specific springs where the rear looks lower than the front?
no music next time bro
Damn. I got the 40th anniversary edition but i really love the black here and now im jealous
LMAO thats funny cus I love the 40th anniversary edition a lot as well
How did you get the steering wheel signed 😮
Clean bike but there’s no way it’s 90 hp I had the same performance mods on my zx4rr and was at 78.3 hp Believe you’re mistaken
I think it was in the mid to high 80s but you have to remember every tuner and dyno is different. I'm not saying my numbers are correct but you give the same parts to 5 different tuners you'll get 5 different hp numbers. I know my shop/tuner works with Graves as they are down the street and they have been developing different maps for the bike. I know Graves gave me a special tune that also included an auto rev match blip on the down shifts and I was told to expect around 85hp. I can talk to my tuner next time I go into the shop and clarify the numbers.
Definitely waiting for installation video. Curious which is easier between JQ and Zestek
Gonna get this video out hopefully this week. Got so many parts to install lol
90hp how ? I have the same bike KRT edition, and every tuner I’ve spoke to the top hp is 74 - 79 hp that’s with full exhaust, headers air filter , who’s ur tuner bro I need mine making 90 🫡
If you get the Graves velocity stacks you can get that extra little bit to get into the high 80s I think mine was like 88 really but she moves for a 399.
Sorry if I missed this in the video but I’m curious to know what the is the exhaust made of (titanium or stainless steel) and did you find any weight savings?
It's stainless and it's for sure lighter than the stock exhaust but to how much lighter I'm not sure tbh.
How are you finding the CTR so far? I also never had a Honda before (BRZ and Mx5), but I am consider selling my 22 BRZ for this as this is a more capable daily.
I love it, I've had 3 Miata's and a 2018 BRZ and I can say it's worlds better than both. Super comfortable to drive and plenty of room for stuff in the back. I'd pull the trigger and get one!
How much you think you’ve spent on mods on this so far including the “90hp” tune?
I think total it was around 8k for the parts and labor and tune.
@@peter_sims thanks for the reply. Just looking at what you got for the money because where I am located for what you spent, I could get a brand new 40th anniversary ZX6R plus have $US6k to spend on mods, or a brand new gsxr1000 with no mods. I just bought a new bike (no mods yet but I’d still have US3k left if I had your budget - which I don’t haha) and thought your total must have been getting right up there as you’ve got some top stuff fitted! Many more ways to have fun on two wheels and I love that we all choose something different to suit our riding and we all have a great time - stay safe bud!
@@SludgedB Oh I for sure could have gotten a faster bike but top speed isn't the main gaol for me. It's the feeling and inputs the bike provides and I've had a 600 and this bike gives you the exact same feeling as riding a 600 same sounds and rev limits but you have the control of the bike like a 400. I say if top speed is what you're after then this isn't the bike for you but if cornering and learning how to ride better with the same sounds and riding feel as a 600 then this bike is perfect!
It seems like you dont really like the car and find many things wrong with it but then again you spent 45k on it. Shouldve just bought something you LOVED!
Bro has created the cleanest zx4rr
Thank you!
Cleanest 4RR on the internet. I’ll be snatching one up this fall. Thanks for the inspiration on mods. This will match my black ‘22 TLX beautifully.
Thank you! You won't regret buying one I promise lol.
Damn first time I’m seeing this channel and this bike is tastefully modded. Well done 🔥🔥🔥
What tune do you have to get 90 hp?
I have a custom dyno tune from Motorsports Exotica here in LA. I think really we were hovering around 88/89 so 90 to be fun lol
finally a new vid
SPOON rarely disappoints but they clearly just made up for lost time with this exhaust. <Kevin Sorbo voice> "Disappointed" !
I honestly like the fact that it's not super obnoxiously loud. I have other cars for that, I need one the wife likes to ride in lol.
Sounds like a bus
Play the music louder bro
will do, thank you for the advice!
Must be a pain to store the stock exhaust since it’s all one piece. Nice exhaust.
LMAO you're not wrong its still at the shop if that answers your question
looks good, sounds stock though
I agree for the cost of the exhaust it should be a little more aggressive but its my quietest car and its honestly nice to get into it and be able to have a normal conversion with my wife lol
did you put 4 layers of ppf and 10 coats of ceramic yet?
LMAO! Not a thing tbh just do my best to keep her clean and damage free lol
my man @@peter_sims
8K above msrp? MY GOD
I was one of the first people to have the new CTR and the markups a year ago were crazy. People were paying 25k above MSRP so the 8k over offer to me didn't seem to bad. Yes, I agree markups are not the move but for how early I was able to get the car I think it was worth it.
Any check engine light when the electronic valve was removed?
nope nothing
truly underwhelming for almost 5k i would expect something transformative, in this case you are literally paying more for less.
Loving my 2024 GR Corolla Premium! I just got a back window tint and a new set of wheels and all-season tires for winter. I’ll probably add a subwoofer too! Enjoy!
4800? Not worth it.
Rhdjapan or blackhawkjapan for all jdm parts. Way cheaper
Peter sims where did you your key fob cover? Can you share a link?
I think I just got it on amazon tbh
Downgrade 😢
I love the OEM wheels, still got them so don't worry I can always return to the car to how it looked originally!
I wish you removed the nonsense background music when he is doing the drive by. Good video otherwise.
I know! Lmao, no more drive by clips with music I promise lol.
Mine came with floor mats
I think the 2024 models are now coming with floor mats. Happy they fixed that lol
3 is more aggressive than 2 logically.. now u got 2 baby exhausts that skipped leg day
Dumbest comment I’ve seen all day
If I’m gon pay 4k.. I better get 4 tips
lol I don't need an exhaust tip per cylinder. 2 seems appropriate to me. Just my opinion tho.
Lmao, first cat...there's only one 😂
You're correct sir, only one cat. I'm so used to the Subaru platform and the cat sits behind the engine not in front like the Hondas. I think removing the over pipe had me thinking I was removing the cat like on a STI lol.
Get the otl down pipe and tune
looks good but very little difference from stock I will pass for 5K
I feel ya. I was alittle underwhelmed at first but when I upgrade the turbo and downpipe it should open the system up and gain some volume. Hopefully lol
I love how you have both the grc and civic type r 😅...which one do u like better?
Lmao right!? Honestly, the GRC is more fun to drive but the CTR is more car especially for around 50k. It's really hard to say lol
$3000 over msrp but for accessories. Brickel Honda Miami.
Probably one of the cleanest Taco builds I’ve seen. If I ever owned one, I’d 100% build it this exact way. Let’s see some more Taco content!
Thanks! Hoping to get out with the truck more now that it's cooled off some. I see some snowboard trips in the near future!
