exhaust inlet on a stivo

[Phat]

ive ordered the xforce s10 twinloop in the group buy and now have received an email saying the 2.25inlet is not available, only the 2.5. my question is, is the 2.5 too big? will i loose low end power with a catback system? the xforce guys said it'll just be louder, another mate have told me the 2.5 is too big and he has lost low end power... wat do you guys suggest?

[sportiyo]

it wont loose power, in fact 2.5inch exhaust is good for stivo, its just u need a 2.5 exhaust to match the 2.5inch muffler, or u need a reducer?

how come i didnt get the email ???

i ordered the 2.25" as well coz i jsut wanan bolt it straight to the stock sportivo exhaust

yeh you can get a reducer

I got the email as well but only want 2.25" s10 as I don't want the extra droney noise that strawberryface was talking about in his review of it on his sportivo. And the alternate S12 - ppl on ozhonda have said they sound tinny.

I'm prepared to wait till April for when the suppliers get them in, but what are all the 1zzfe ppl going to do ?

i thought the s12 was supposed to be louder then the s10

i think my s12 is softer than s10

2.5'' would be to big for a 1zz but a 2zz should be fine

I've heard different. I've heard 2.5" will lose torque and gain a little at top end which is okay if you're racing and drive in lift everywhere. But if you just drive like a normal citizen, then stick with 2.25".
