FB Rx-7 muffler back to back comparison test! We tested an X-force 6"x18" against an AES 7"×16". Both systems used twin 3.5" body resonators, with the only difference being AES/X-force. Tests were done on a stock 12A vehicle... excuse the noisy alternator bearing 😅

3 volume tests were conducted: Idle, free revs, and holding at 4500rpm. The dB meter was placed 500mm from the tailpipe at a 45* angle as per EPA standards.

Results were reasonably similar for idle and free rev dB, with the AES system being noticeably quieter in the 4500rpm test. The X-force system sounded great at high rpm and is a little more raspy. The AES mufflers sound deeper and more refined, and are the better sounding mufflers for a street car in our opinion- 5db quieter at cruising rpm would be ideal for highway driving.

Stainless headers made up for Gaige's 323 build! These feature our 12mm engine fl**ge, 2" 304SS runners, and are fully back purged for as much strength as possible to support the peripheral port 13B engine.

Took the time to make a jig for these, and have added to the website. Link in bio for more information 😊

S13 Silvia intercooler and air intake pipes all finished! A tricky job, but very happy with the end result 👌 despite the complex appearance and lack of silicone joiners, all pipes and the air filter can be fitted very easily.

Exhaust system and some catch can mods are up next for this one.

S13 Silvia airbox mounted up, no better feeling than seeing a custom part designed off a 3D scan come to life and fit perfectly 👌 just the charcoal canister section left on this one.

Up next is the 2.5" hot side and turbo air intake pipes. These will run through the circular bulkhead fl**ges on the airbox for a clean finish with no visible welds.

We will also be fabricating a complete stainless exhaust system from headers to tip using AES Racing Mufflers 👌

3D printed air intake system for the FD3S Rx-7 build turned out unreal! Consisting of 4" 3D printed intake pipes and airbox lid, with a laser cut backing piece to completely seal off the hot engine bay from the filter.

Fitment is millimetre perfect and allows for a full size pod filter to easily fit through the front bumper. Mirror image oil catch can and AST tanks are up next, then the whole setup is off for powdercoating!

Fab work finished up for Tyron! After the 3D printed manifold upgrade and exhaust work was completed, we touched up some of the engine bay piping and fabricated a neat turbine heat shield from stainless steel.

All aluminium items in the engine bay were also removed and sent down to Joel Seeto Metal Polishing for a mirror finish, who did an incredible job like usual. Reassembling and trying to not mark anything was nerve wracking 😅
