  • In today's episode, we're building a custom exhaust for an FK8 Honda Civic Type R. I'm 3D Printing a bunch of fabrication different steps along the way. This was a lot of welding and a TON of work haha... by far the craziest exhaust I've ever built. I hope you guys enjoy today's video!

      Having such little fabrication experience, 3D printing has really helped me bridge that gap into making some really nice (to me, at least) parts and projects

      🤣🤣 not having an exhaust manifold makes it so tough to sound nice. Customer was happy though and I was really, really happy with the fab work with Nate! Thank you

      Thanks Tim! 3D printing really helps me bridge a skill gap for trying to fabricate by hand. I never spent the years learning those skills but I can pretty reasonably turn things out in CAD to help

    Seems like it doesn’t drone much but it probably has the stock down pipe. I think on a catless downpipe it would drone unless a Helmholtz design was incorporated. This would be sicker if it was full titanium.

    • @GrindhousePerformance
      @GrindhousePerformance  2 роки тому

      There's one pocket off throttle around 3k rpm that gets drone, the OEM exhaust did have a helmholtz in it specifically targeting this. Would agree probably need to add something with an aftermarket downpipe. Thanks for checking out my video!

    Nice work! I’m trying to find some inspiration for my exhaust. I’m going to j32 6speed swap my 5th gen Honda prelude and need a great sounding exhaust. Nothing ricey but sounds mean

    • @GrindhousePerformance
      @GrindhousePerformance  2 роки тому +1

      That sounds like a pretty awesome swap, I didn't know people were using them. I think a good set of headers will make a big difference on sound for a j32. Im glad you liked it 👍

      LOL John damn, laying down the law 🤣. I've really gotta pedal down if I want to drive it this year. Everything's been backordered like crazy and I keep seeing stuff I want to redo with how poorly I did a lot of things over the years. There's also a ton of small projects on it that really aren't video worthy that ive been putting off.. need more hours in the day!

      @@GrindhousePerformance I'm just now embarking on a pretty major re-do of my exhaust. It's just too damn low and scrapes too much. The only way I can conjure to get more room is with tri-"Y" headers and a single oval 4.5" tube in the middle section rather than two 3". Fortunately the back section up to the front of the diff is fine....but most of the rest needs to be re-imagined. I hate the thought of it...doing the headers was brain damage the first time....but it's not going to fix itself. I already made a new tranny cross-member with much larger exhaust cut-outs. Ah well, at least it'll keep me off the streets....

      Oh dang, that doesn't sound good for my future then either! Have you seen shawn basset's? He ran at pikes peak last year in an all carbon LS 240z. "Attacking the clock racing" His exhaust routes as fender exits, but the fender area is large enough he's able to tuck mufflers up front. I can't remember if NASA has rules on exhaust exiting behind the driver, but it's a thought I had if it scrapes too much

      I was so disappointed when I came home and pulled the video! It sounds so much better than the mic picked up on. I totally agree, after watching other type r videos none of them sound good on video.. so weird
