gt4 exhaust sounds like sti wrx - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #82356 28 posts Started by diegohiga
I never heard a 3sgte with good exhaust system in my life. And i really like how sti sounds. Do the gt4 with good exhaust sounds like these sti's?? The deep and strong sound?

STi's are more rumbly on account of the flat-4 engine. I don't think an inline-4 will ever sound like a flat-4.

main reason you've never heard that sound out of a gt4: the gt4 is an I4 motor... sti is a boxer motor.. boxer motors have a very distinct tone

I've always heard good things about Magnaflow canisters with a 3S but I've only heard Stambo's 3S in person. That thing sounds mean. You should look up the video of Tufy's GT4 racing a Supra on YouTube.

Ive got a magnaflow on my 7a, still stock piping though.. not a bad tone at all, especially for a 7a.. but I would honestly rather have a Borla with 2.5-3" pipe if I had a 3s
Found it!

Yes ill be using 3" piping on my 3s and im looking to get the perfect exhaust/ muffler
my exhaust !

Skunk2 evo style muffler with vibrant performance resonator and magnaflow high flow cat, 3 inch piping.

you also have to take into account they the subaru boxer have an unequal length exhaust manifold

Totally agree. Subaru's have such a nice tone.

I have the blitz exhaust and while it is deep, it doesn't have that brrrrrrr-noise the Subaru's get with an aftermarket exhausts.
I'll try get a vid of my exhaust so you can compare.

But what set up you like? Meaning what exhaust you like on the 3s? There are soooo many exhaust that is hard to pick one.
Art (lagos) has a very nice sounding setup

I hate the sound of the inline 4 cyl. more than anything. I ran straight pipe with a cat, no muffler. I wanted to commit suicide after driving it with less than a mile. I added a resonator and it's at least somewhat tolerable, still sounds like a fart machine.

I've never heard a single good sounding inline four engine ever, doesnt matter what or how much you spend on your exhaust it's still going to suck.

Like Rusty said, the wrx exhaust had unequal length manifolds. It's not a good thing.

I have to agree. I had a Soarer with the I6 1jz and even with an axle back exhaust it sounded better.
i have to put a vid up of my beams motor with straight piping. my bro said it sounded really good. sounds somewhat raspy under 4,500 rpm.

I have the Berk 3'' down pipe with 3'' mandrel bent exhaust with a 3'' inlet megan turbo muffler with a 4'' outlet.. No cat no resinator and it sounds perfect.. Nice and deep tone I love it..
Actually my friend said the other day that mine sounds a bit like a wrx sti at lower rpm's
its a 3" KO downpipe, 3" flex section, 12" Vibrant ultra quiet resonator to Apexi N1 muffler. All mandrel bent and welded.

Haha..... so.

Vid of the day I first started it like 3 years ago. It's actually really really deep, but sounds crackly cause the video camera is cheap.

thats the noise you will get with HKS 272 Cams, an i think he has a straight through exhaust with a can on the end, but cant say for sure, its also a GT4 (3S-GTE)
