Extractors

[sibbo]

yeah hi guys I'm thinkin of gettin some extractors for my ae92 corolla I'm just wondering how much it would set me back? how much of a power increase would i get? and is there any downsides to extractors

 

 

cheers

prob about $200 plus $100 labour or something.

call an exhaust shop and find out.

 

there are 2 common types:

 

4-2-1 = midrange

4-1 = top end

 

just make sure you get quality extractors, don't worry about stainless too much.

 

plus you might as well get a new exhaust system while you at it,

no point in extractors in a restricted stock system.

 

mild steel press bent in 2 1/4 would be ideal but 2 inch or 2 1/2 are options,

then a new cat, muffler and maybe a resonator if needed at a cost of

about $300 parts and labour at a guess.

 

extractors will give a little power increase but more of a better power delivery throughout

the rev range, helps the engine breathe more with a matching exhaust system and probably

better still with a matching induction system if you want to go that far.

 

no real downsides unless you oversize the exhaust and it pisses and farts everywhere

and loses all bottom end power but hey thats half of ipswich anyway :laff:

Do you have a 4AFC, 4AFE, 4AGE or 7AFE engine? Not much point getting extractors on a 4AGE, the factory ones are pretty good, but the others will benefit from a good exhaust system.

Factory 4AGE manifolds love to crack and leak.

 

$350 would be enough for a catback, but new cats are worth 200-300 each installed.

 

extractors you are looking at roughly 300-500 (would need to look them up in the book)

I was thinking about putting some extractors on my AE101 4AFE engine as well. Found some decent looking ones for $220 in a shop.

 

Only downside is that I am borderline automotive illiterate so any advice or thoughts would be appreciated.

 

Is it worth it? Will I notice the difference? Should I upgrade to 2" piping as well? I have the 4" cannon on there at the moment so that might be the only bit that won't need upgrading. As said, any advice or opinions are appreciated :laff:

[orangeLJ]

I don't understand the logic in that.

 

you have a 4inch cannon on the end of what? a 1.5 inch exhaust system?

 

Thats about as useless as a one legged man at an arse kicking party.

 

Cannons are useless pieces of cheap blingy crap IMO.

yeah its a 4AFE so you rekin it could go an upgrade to a sports exhaust system n extractors?
