Sparkco Exhaust (good sh*t!)
 

Just got my Sparkco Exhaust installed this afternoon...i love it!
The muffler gives out a strong, throaty deep tone as you accelerate, yet settles down to almost no sound at cruising speed. I recommend this to anybody looking to upgrade their exhaust while not spending too much on it. I bought it for $45.99 USD directly from Sparkco Engineering Tech. in montreal. Called Peter and he's very good to deal with. Ordered on Tuesday morning, he shipped it out that same day via Fedex, and I received it Wednesday afternoon (I live in Ontario, Canada). Installation (welding + custom piping) cost me $60 canadian. I will show pictures of it very soon.

seems like a good deal ... where did you go for the custom piping and welding for only $60 .... do you live near Toronto, cuz i'm also looking for a custom exhaust.

So roughly you paid about $70 - 75 for the Sparco muffler, and plus $60 for the piping.

doesn't seem bad....

did you go 2.25" .... and what is the size of the sparco tip.... sorry for all the questions ....

cuz if i can get a whole custom exhasut for $150CAD then that would be sweet

Well, i paid $160 total for the custom work and exhaust and delivery and all. I went to this chinese place called Racing Evolution on Burnhamthorpe and Creditview in Mississauga, did it in 1 1/2 hrs. Pretty good work. I'll post some pics once i clean my car.

This is the one I have:

I forgot the dimension of the tip...

You can e-mail Peter (the guy from Sparkco) :
info@sparkco.com

He can provide you with all the info you need.

p.s. I just took out the silencer this afternoon, and the exhaust is producing a very racy deep throaty note. You'll like it for sure man.

Hey, that sounds pretty good.
I live in Winnipeg and was on the verge of picking up a Mazdaspeed muffler.
But for the price that you paid, I'll check out Sparco.
Thanks!

hi
I am from Toronto, and I am just wondering about that place that did the custom piping. Do they do a mandrel (sp?) bend? or the rippled bends? That seems like a pretty good price for custom piping, and I wanted to ask if you notice any performance difference with the sparkco exhaust besides the sound? Is it loud? I am looking for something that isn't too loud. Also, is the custom piping stainless steel? along with the exhaust?

I think the place that i went to, did a mandrel bend. At the end result, the welding job was DECENT, to say the least. Not the most professional work, but it holds well and does the job.
As for the Sparkco exhaust, it can be really loud if you take out the silencer. If you want something racy yet mellow, leave the silencer on w/ the adjustment to the max. (there's a sliding rotary plate for silencing adjustments). The sparkco muffler is stainless steel, but the custom piping is not.

Hope it helps.

Here are some pics of my Sparkco exhaust:

great... another oversized fart tip :thumbs do

guess u'r a fan of changing exhaust/mufflers....

well, actually the exhaust outlet is not that big....the muffler itself does...it sounds great...so that's all i really like....
doesn't sound much like fart either

It looks like a fireball exhaust.

wtf are you talking about? :rolleyes:

I get exhaust systems that actually PERFORM and does NOT have a big ass bazooka can and tip where you can fit mcdonald's fries holders in

first of all, relax u f*ck nut...
second of all, exhaust systems that actually "PERFORM" are great in its own rights...but they cost hundreds more...and for what? you can never own the fastest car...there's always someone faster than you....important thing is to get something that suits your own taste, and not simply buy shit that "performs" when you can't even fukkin' use it on public roads that actually has a speed limit.
I ain't puttin' up posts to dis others for their own taste in car mods, so who makes you 'TheMAN"?

TheMAN I'm tired of your stupid comments, because they are really annoying the f**k out of me. What do you actually think that by spending 500 dollars on a whole exhaust system you are going to get 500whp, you are not . E-Diddy your muffler looks nice. So, TheMAN me and you at the track anytime with as you might call a gay,ugly,waste of money muffler, because that is what I have in my car and all my friends love it. :D :D

mygreenmazda, nice to know that i ain't the only one who thinks TheMAN's an annoying f*ck. I may not know much about car mods, but i know that if you're a true enthusiast who wants PERFORMANCE, exhaust ain't really the top choice. Only reason I got one was for the sound and looks. If i want a fast car, i'd go turbo for HP boost.
Thanks for da note mygreenmazda btw.

Yep, exhaust I guess you can say is a start. Turbo well then I would say spend the money and get the best. And by the way how big is the tip is it 4 inches or 4 1/2, etc, just wondering
