Sound, what sound, I didn't hear anything

 

huh? are you talking about the team moon P5 page, or my link?

 

Team moon, forget it I heard it.

 

Ok, so the exhaust looks and sounds great, but how's the construction? I'm in Winnipeg so I'm concerned about rust through the winter. Are the welds clean? Is the muffler stainless and the piping aluminized or is the whole thing stainless?

Any more word on the dyno for the 5speed?

 

Just a note for fellow 3rd gen sedan owners, I talked to Charlie at Team Moon today, and he says they are working on an application for the sedan. he doesnt have a date yet, but he said he will keep me posted, and i will keep you all posted if I hear before you.

 

i have yet to dyno yet i just got my job at ford so i am finally making some real money so i shuold be oging to the dyno soon. the exhaust is built very well. its was built at grand muffler and is all mandrel bent. i know the muffler and tip are stainless and i do believe the piping is aluminized but i'm not sure oln it. i have the guinea pig versoin right now and not the final version yet.

 

Does anyone have pics yet (other than the team moon website)??

 

How big is that tip? It sounds awsome but that tip just seems a tad big, and I don't really like how it sticks out from the cars bumper, I like them flush with the rear bumper

 

Does anyone know the diameter of the piping, would it be good for turbo?

 

and what about loud annoying resonance inside the cabin at highway speeds? anyone?

 

I heard that the resonance isn't bad

 

Does anyone have pictures of this installed on their P5 yet? How about sound at highway speeds? Anything?

 

thats the Anti-VTEC kicking in

 

Grand Muffler Huh? Hmmmm......they've built an exhaust or two for me in the past. They do pretty good work, although I haven't been there in a LONG time. They are off of South Cobb Dr. in Smyrna, GA (those of you living in Atlanta). Be prepared-they do allot of redneck NASCRAP-like stuff. But they do do very good work from what I've seen/bought.

They also sell stainless steel piping so theres no excuse for Team Moon of whatever theyre called to not include it. Although, Im betting that w/ that price its aluminised. A few years back, this was what they quoted me: A mandrel bent system for Sentra SE-R (1992) w/out a resonator and a muffler was around the $125 mark. Now, add stainless and you'd double the price for sure. They will however allow you to bring in your own pipe and muffler to use though (or they used to).

Now, what I want to see is someone be able to wel Titanium! Try doing that in a vaccuum! Its costs but its wont rust and its almost lighter than aluminium and waaay stronger too. In my wet dreams huh? Personally, I like the WRC look-unfinished exhaust tip.

 

I finally received my Team Moon exhaust late last week, and I installed it over the weekend. It was a very easy install. A couple of minor glitches, but overall I'm very pleased.

Here are some answers to questions in this thread:

it is pretty quiet inside the cabin. Indeed, if you're driving gently, it doesn't sound any louder than stock. If you're driving hard, it is loud, but not unreasonable, especially if the windows are up.

yeah, that's a pretty big muffler tip. It seems to have the same radius as the cutout in the rear bumper, and it sits right up there in it. I'm waiting for it to heat up and melt my plastic, but so far, only the wax has melted.

installation was very easy: replace four bolts. My old ones were a little rusty, so that was tricky, but not too bad. Getting the muffler hangers into the mounting holes was a bit of a challenge, but that, too was doable.

Here is a lousy picture. I'll try to get a better one sometime.
