Hello FTOers

Post by Choo »

Hey Guys. I'm new to this forum so i thought it would be fitting to post my 1st question in the newbie section.

I've been getting some quotes for an exhaust system and i was quoted $830 to get some Hurricane extractors fitted. Is Hurricane any good? and is this a good price?

Hello mate, Welcome to the club :)

I've not heard of Hurrican making extractors for FTOs before, but now that I've search the web, I see they do!

Most folk here go for the RPW extractors. Usual going rate is $550 for the set then add $$ for fitting... so $830 I spose isnt to bad a price. You really ought spend a few more bucks getting the rest of the tail pipe / cat / resonator / muffler done as well to maxmise the power gains.

yeah i got a good quote for the rest of the exhaust system.
$250 for the straight through exhaust fitted or $400 for a dual exhaust,
(one on each side). Definately going the dual zorst. They look wiked
on FTO's.
Also i'm sure your aware of UAS and i was wondering if
they are very reliable as i have ordered an induction kit off them last
october and i'm still chasing them up about it?
