AW11 MR2 Gets Custom Exhaust System! *PERFECT SOUND*

[@16bmidniterfoxo]

That's a great exhaust tone, once I make up my mind on if I want to stick with the 4age or do a swap, I'll go down a similar path with a vibrant setup. You may be already aware but facebook is where most of the aw11 community is still active, two great groups/resources are AW11's ONLY and AW11 idea dump. If you're looking to replace the cheap set of coilovers, Matrixgarage WAT coilovers and Bob Pham's 808 coilovers are great options (mk1b havr a better selection then the mk1a). Finally one mod I strongly recommend would be a quick ratio steering rack, Technotoytuning sells a complete rack assemblyand Quaife sells the rack, it makes the car feel very direct and easier to catch when the tail starts to slide on you. Looking forward to seeing more videos with the AW11 on this channel!

[@NikkoSalgado]

thanks for the tips! I'll definitely be doing a new set of coilovers down the road. Appreciate the advice!

[@Topazman]

glad we don't need catalytic convertors on our mr2's in Ireland

[@jbfinishingsjellebilliau9054]

Verry nice sound😎

[@bretzi111]

Id like to decat my mk1 but what do you do with the o2 sensors ??? Will it run rich ?

[@arvinjami3992]

Beautiful MR2 my friend and thank you for uploading this, I am going to use this as my blueprint when I go to the exhaust shop in a few weeks. Question, for the 2.5 diameter piping, are you completely stock?

[@NikkoSalgado]

set of cams. nothing crazy

[@GoopRoppongi]

It sounds heavenly, this will definitely be some of the steps i will do with my Mr2s new exhaust someday, i just got it so imma leave it stock for a while

[@NikkoSalgado]

Heck yeah!

[@edifiebru]

Awesome exhaust!! I just got a similar one made for my mr2

[@doctorcountersteer6580]

Nice work and finished sound but why no S.S. bellows type flex joint? Beemers have them all day long, sir?

[@NikkoSalgado]

I have the flex pipe which aids in flexibility. No issues at all

[@sk8salomon]

Wow! A++ You are hired!!! lol

[@shaneynereneyne4493]

Those Pacemakers exhaust where the ooooonly option we had 15 years ago. But even then they suuuuucked lol. This new ones the bees knees🤌🏻

[@ABeans07]

I can't believe all that work ont he nice stuff and you smudge some high temp RTV on the stock part for the rest of the car. Lord.

[@danielferraro59]

sounds and looks absolutely amazing 🤩 🎉

[@NikkoSalgado]

thanks bro!

[@turdbomitch9007]

Hey bro, where did you get that tip from!?

[@NikkoSalgado]

got it from summit racing!

[@001dman]

Ya know. I saw this video a while ago. And I had this car in my shop last week… it just dawned on me that that’s why I thought this exhaust looked familiar. I think he said he was your cousin. But I’ve gotta source a/c stuff for him lol

[@NikkoSalgado]

haha small world! yeah my my uncles family bought it back so itll be in the NW Indiana area now.

[@001dman]

@@NikkoSalgado cool. I’ve got him in touch with my guy for the parts he needs. I like seeing these old ones still going. He got a kick out of my Collection of mr2s at the dealer lol

[@NikkoSalgado]

@@001dman heck yeah haha

[@godenzi]

Are there any other engine or breathing mods, or is the exhaust note all down to the new exhaust?

[@BlipSS]

I'm currently twisting his nipple for more mods in the shop. Keep an eye out!

[@godenzi]

Hooo yeah! Can’t wait Thanks for the reply!

[@NikkoSalgado]

hahah lets make more cool stuff

[@NikkoSalgado]

Mild Cams. I think thats it

[@ericmcallister4809]

Great work, guys

[@NikkoSalgado]

thank you!

[@romelric]

Glorious!

[@Ottobon]

thats pretty good

[@NikkoSalgado]

Thanks mate!

[@chrishuyler3580]

Exhaust looks great, but something is up with that idle, clogged injector maybe?

[@NikkoSalgado]

I think I need to adjust timing slightly

[@chrishuyler3580]

@@NikkoSalgado Nah, if timing was off it would fast idle or simply stall. Yours just sounds lumpy, possibly spark plugs, wires, or distributor cap. (I’ve got an ‘86 with a similar exhaust + TRD header and it just purrs)

[@antonioromero9145]

All this but no header?

[@NikkoSalgado]

V banded so can add header later. Also that would double the cost right now. I’m also unsure on if I’ll do a swap or different head.

[@NegativeTravis]

The only company that makes AW11 headers (SV3) is closed indefinitely. There's another company out of Malaysia I think called Speedmaster Racing but they may have also gone under since their website is offline.

[@ttttunos]

Don't want to know how much it cost but also want to know how much it cost. Lol.
