I just listened to the two exhaust notes back to back from your option 2 video. And for me - option 2 sounds better, but different strokes for different folks. Excellent work lads. Lovely

Hey boys been following along loving the brain storming and all the R&D going into this. Just come across dynomotives video of their exhaust that they have come up with. They seem to have come up with a clever system with the rear muffler and valve situation definitely worth a watch 👍🏼 Can’t wait to see the next episode keep up the good work

Thanks mate! we will give it a watch this week!

You need a trans cooler man. Makes a huge difference. Mine sits below the first bar now. Before that it would go to the 3rd bar after a few hard hits. Can confirm the bigger intercooler makes a big difference too

Thanks mate! Definitely next on the list now.

Can you guys do a quick video comparing the sound of Stock, Version 1, and Version 2? I think it'd help to determine the changes in sound for each of the options compared to stock. All of the reasons you mentioned for buying a mid pipe are what we as the consumer are looking for. Sure sound is cool but if there's no performance gain you really need to justify the cost for what is basically a cosmetic product.

You like it more cuz it’s more free flow. The 4 inch slowed the exhaust gas creating a different tone sound and created resistance. If you remove the baffles, you will gain a lot less resistance in the exhaust. Which will create more power. If you’re worried about annoying droning, put a straight shot muffler so it muffles low rpm scenarios

Great video guys, I think there is a definite difference in sound with option 1, sounds more like the r35 sound were looking for. look forward to seeing it available.

Thanks mate! We think so too! huge sound differences to be made with the front pipes and rear mufflers too, which we will tackle first up next year!

Great work again guys, keep it up! Super excited to see a straight through turbo back system though. May as well have the sound on 24/7 like a patrol, ram or Chevy on the roads these days. Currently saving for a herrod performance upgrade with the trans and inter cooler upgrade. Plus your airbox that’s on the way then your full system should be absolutely smicko 🙏🏻

Love your work, and keen as hell to get one when its done, but i would love to see a larger valve set to see the difference, i reckon that would open it up better.

I so can't wait to get my Ranger Raptor. Shame it's such a long wait on the factory order of 11 months here in th UK

When I got mine the wait list was sitting at 2 years here in Sydney, it's insane. Worth the wait though.

I think you have nailed it. It defiantly sounds deeper and more European. It will be interesting to see what gains you make on the Dyno. There are a couple more exhausts out on the market that I have heard. None sound as good and refined as your system. Some sound cheap and raspy like the pipes are made from thinner pipe. Awesome work guys. Cheers Mike

Next video idea. How to do a cheeky nathan raptor burnout (all the steps)

Run it in Baja mode 2H for pre-spool of turbo’s. You get a nice pop sound when going off throttle.

Ya need equal length from front pipes. Look at the tomei equal length on the rb26, makes them sound like a single. Doesn’t matter what you do after the front pipes you can’t replicate that sound without equal length front pipes. Obviously going to be different on the v6 but I think equal length will make it sound tougher.

@FabulousFab__

We think you're spot on mate! Once we finalise the mid pipe we're moving onto the front pipes and we think our best option is to equalise. I'll hopefully have an update for you next ep!

Hey guys, we definitely intend to, we should have made this more clear in the videos (we're still realising we need to tell a story along with document what we're doing haha) But we intend on moving to front pipes next, and you guys are spot on, we plan on equalising the lengths.

This engine has a lot of potential. I have tuned my raptor with jb4 and with only the tune and the meth injection option I was able to jump from a baseline of 350hp to 420hp at the wheels on a totally bone stock engine (intake, exhaust, etc). Next step for me is adding the fabulous fabrications intake (thanks guys!) And a larger intercooler I got from fenix. Just need time to install them and will take it again to the dyno to see how much it improves. Thanks fabulous for keeping developing stuff for the raptor platform!.

Hi mate! Congrats, they're a hell of a car! We are definitely tackling the front pipes next, we actually think there's a lot bigger changes in sound to be made equalising the front pipes so are eager to get into that first up in the new year! Enjoy your Raptor and your new bits!

Y'all should get a portable bandsaw, great for cutting through exhaust.

Need to build one with a H pipe now to get a deeper note.

Yupp with equal length downpipes for that trumpet gargle note

Hit up herrod on the gc for intercooler

Twin in twin out sounds better to me personally. Bit more depth to it. Less rattle.

Sounds better

Just curious how a full 3” would sound instead of 2.5”? Also, any updates? Might consider this even in central Florida 😮

Yep defs better! Deeper sound earlier and longer

Equal length exhaust should be the answer no? Just like the gen 3 loop

Sound better is first priority

when is this coming out??

Terrible suggestion, we would have to do it on a work day, and make a night of it, and we've only got access to some of Australia's best beaches. Ok we will do it.

How does it sound in quiet mode with the valves cut?

It sounds like an M3 now

Would ya wanna send a system to Canada?? Let's hope they build my truck within the next 6 plus months!

its been shown the intercooler flows well but heat soaks... why not put a water meth system on and get sub ambient temps?

this comment is music to Nathans ears. Our current plan is to offer a Good, Better, Best structure with OEM valving available for those who wan to keep that functionality, however our 'best' package would see the valves deleted in favour of performance.

Would changing the headers length or layout help with sound at all? Surely that's the only other thing to try sound wise
