OK, Found a Way to Keep Things "STOCK LOOKING"

[escksu]

I just discovered that the works engineering extractor and mid pipe can be used directly with the stock muffler. So, I just change the extractor and mid-pipe but keep the stock muffler. This way its not loud and I still get power increased. Apparently, the stock muffler for the Satria Neo is not really restrictive. ITs also using 2" pipeand lighter than the works one.

why don't go for full custom? loud or not is something we can control

should go for straight pipe with aftermarket muffler with silencer since u dont like
the loud sound.

No it has to look stock or else I might get stop by LTA again. I already have my works exhaust so it would be a waste not to try to reuse it.

I think the Works's exhaust set looks very similar to stock, just polished finishing. and i dont think it is noisy or loud at all..

since ur from singapore... pop over to JB and look for XH Motorsports.. and ask them about their "custom sideplant exhaust"

or... u can just google for "exhaust cutout" to get an idea of wat it is heh heh heh

Side plant is also illegal in SG when LTA inspection.... normally they just operate the stock muffler...

side plant is also illegal here la dood :P

I was caught by LTA with the works exhaust...... hence now using backing extractor and midpipe only. Keeping the stock muffler......I don't know how they have some eagle eyes and bat ears or what can see.

They nowadays study more info about car modification,even their staff also involve in car modification..so hard to cheat them..huhu...stock looking maybe can help u..

Under the Road Transport Act 1987, there is nothing about exhaust mod(if i read it correctly) only on Environmental Law, any sound emitted either by a factory or a motorized vehicle that exceeds 85 decibels is deemed to be said “contributing” to sound pollution. You could via circular K 103 (c/u) be handed a summon any time by the police or J.P.J. for such an offense. If you are unlucky to be hauled to court, the judge will hand you a RM150 penalty.

So... technically if your side plan did not exceed 85db n not sticking out of the car then u r pass, but even some stock car exceed 85db, so side plan definitely be exceeding 85db for sure. Just do a twin exhaust lo for best result.

yeah i know about the decibel thingy...but this being malaysia....it only applies to JPJ Officers...with the police, as long as u change exhaust... saman.. happened to my friend before and i was there with him... he even had a letter from JPJ/Puspakom stating that the exhaust is within limits and is legal... n still kena

n with the sideplant... high chances the sound will be over 85db hahahahaha

but one thing has confused me... they never state which condition for it to exceed 85db... example if idle is below 85db... and only at 4k or 6k or 7k RPM it goes above 85db... how?

If u confident in your jpj letter then sue the police la... ask them which part ur friend car is wrong n receive the saman, which law hav ur friend broken..? they dare u will not do anything ma... or ur friend lanci with him so he saman anyway...?(most ppl will pay the saman n will not make a fuss about it other then those very rich ppl like a friend of mine that only answer the police dunno n koyak the saman infront of the police:stupid:) will police saman a ferrari with a akrapovic exhaust..? i dun think so...

If not mistaken not exceed 85db max decibel produced, which is at red line im afraid

if you free, ask someone to drive your car and u stand outside.. the exhaust sounds like a 2b motorbike..

Not really though. I tried it already. Very good. The person rev the engine hard. Very quiet now.

But my main thing is to look stock rather than sound stock. Its harder for LTA to pick up the sound due to road noise and helmet but easy for them to spot a non stock muffler.

Well, i'm using neo cps, decatted mine months ago. Worth it. Even the sound is not noticeable at idle or light rev. But 5k and above, the rumbling is quite deep but pitchie.. Stock piping and stock exhaust.

I change the cat with a dummy pipe, but the inside it weird though, got some fin and spiral design. Got no picture though..
