Its refreshing to hear how excited you sound about your customer's cars... I've dealt with too many egotistical and careless shops lately

[@iminyourcloset1038]

Double x pipe ftw! Sounded so good

[@_Clem_H_Fandango_]

It sounded like a Challenger

[@SteveStoltz]

That double x-pipe has a pretty unique sound.

Straight pipe and double x pipe sounded almost the same but the double x got angry with acceleration ... gotta do this to my sc400 !!

[@Flamethrower88]

I don't understand why a person would bring their car to you for a muffler delete when they have a throttle body issue. Isn't that more important than how the exhaust sounds? 😂

Exhaust always comes first!!!

@@exhaustaddicts yea it does 😂. My mistake lol....you guys do a great job btw

[@alexissandoval1898]

All it needed was maf sensor, it was dirty so wasn’t reading that it was getting enough air. Which is why it sounds like it’s choking

[@ScooterMcAwesomeness]

Can't fix stupid??

[@bcjammer]

no

[@stevetheodore_specialtycars]

I really appreciate this video as I recently bought myself an SC400 with stock exhaust and wanted to see and hear some options to help plan my own upgrades. That double X pipe system seems like the winner to me, and not something I would have likely thought of. Thanks for the great video!

[@ReidHenderson]

Alot of these double x pipe systems sound so good.

[@coolhandluke1503]

love the comparisons, it's good you're sharing this with the world. I'm surprised none of the customers wanted after market header as the manifolds on these things are very restrictive.

[@KingLexus]

Cause they expensive

[@pushhrodd01]

@@KingLexus yup and hard to find. not much aftermarket support on a sc400

[@coolhandluke1503]

@@KingLexus I paid $850 Australian dollars for my headers and that was the easy part, the hard part was the 12 to 14 hours I spent getting the old system out. An exhaust shop quoted me over 2.2k for a cat back system, without the headers. I purchased everything inc hurricane headers, 12X 45 bends, 2X crossovers (X-pipes), straight thru mufflers, 2X tips and some straight pipe and did it myself for 1.5k. I could have spent over double by letting someone else do it, but I do not recommend attempting this job unless you are fully prepared and have a good amount of mechanical experience, rounding an almost impossible nut to get to on the manifold could mean engine then has to come out, don't expect to just undo nuts and bolts rather expect to brute force snap stainless steel fasteners, this is a warning to anyone who attempts this job.

[@coolhandluke1503]

@@pushhrodd01 Hurricane headers are the only company that make tri-y headers, there are some block hugger type I think made by Chinese companies.

[@KingLexus]

@@coolhandluke1503 that’s exactly what I meant like damn that’s a lot of hassle I rather just get the Elate Log headers for around $320 Usd or 330 AUD not as crazy flowing as hurricane but still way way better than stock.

[@osiris.y]

Where can I get the high flow cats?

[@bcjammer]

I have a 2000 ls400, same engine as the sc400. right now I've deleted both the mufflers so it has the stock resonator and stock x pipe...she sounds MEAN under hard excel but no rasp. that double x pipe sc sounds TERRIFIC! but the oem cats are already high flow so the addition of the extra cats is probably what makes it sound a little muted but the v8 will NOT BE SILENCED. I'm going to delete the resonator and replace the factory x pipe with a real one and add the smallest vibrant performance mufflers (2 1/2") then straight pipes after that
