OK As most of you are aware, I aquired a CES Catback exhaust for my 2ZZ this weekend at a great price from mowog.

After having this fitted to my car, when I drove out of CES's driveway, I knew that my car was certainly liking the difference.

I didnt notice much myself until I took the onramp back to the highway. Basically, between 3000rpm and lift, the car appears to have created an ability to flow smoother and free-er.

This is where I have noticed the increas in power as well as Lift not being as abrubt, although still fun.

Driving on the highway, when dropping back a gear or 2 when overtaking actually appears easier as If you are in that 3000 - 6000 rev range, the cars response has been increased.

So far, since having it fitted, I drove 50km (approx) from CES to my house on the highway, 25km round trip in semi traffic to my local major shopping centre and back, then I went out last night with 4 people in my car on a 50km round trip to the city and back in traffice.

Can I say, anyone that has ever complained about the noise in these things is a d!ck cause there isnt any. If any of you have met my wife, you will know that she will be the first to complain about something like that. She was with me when I went to the shopping centre and back. I also had her, as well as her parents and a friend of theirs in the car when we went out last night.

None of them commentted about the noise being annoying in anyway, and as we got home, I asked them all if the noise from the exhaust was in anyway annoying, droning, upsetting and loud.....they all said no....

So where to from here, only up. Time to get my CAI as soon as I can to get more air in and away we go.

MASSIVE THANKS TO TREVOR AT CES FOR SQUEEZING ME IN AT SUCH SHORT NOTICE TO FIT THIS EXHAUST TO MY CAR :toast::toast::toast:

I noticed the loss in mid range straight away with the stock system fitted. AZZA I am glad you like the system I loved it on my car as well. And I liked the sound it made as well.

Cant wait for the Ute to arrive :clap:

Those who have been in my car know the CES is not over bearing (I know Chris (FRED) was very eager after the lift I gave him from Newcastle to Picton. I've taken my parents in my car several times since both the CES and the coilovers have been put in (both 50+) and neither of them have found them uncomfortabe, in fact it remains quite comfortable to have a conversation into the backseat, even on the highway at 110km/h and 3,500 rpm constant for 1/2 an hour.

24 hours on and Im still loving it. Im not finding the sound annoying or overbearing at all. The only time the noise makes itself known is when your using compression to decellerate through the 4000 - 2500 range, but I wouldnt say its too noticable

What he said...

I understand that all ZZE model corolla's have the same floorplan with the same exhaust route, but I stand corrected if someone knows otherwise....

Jeff, there is some evidence that suggests a cannon will actually decrease the power your car is putting down. If power is not a big issue, then noise is the next suggestion. Stock sportivo mufflers aren't that loud when you thnk about them....

There is also 'some' evidence that CES lose power or dont gain any at all...

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
