Expect loss of dignity, and increased levels of douche.

... you dont want stacks...

Yeah single stacks are no good you need the big ones like oon the 600+hp B-doubles

I only have a single on my 500hp detroit and its too loud and doesnt look as tough as the others at work.

Maybe you need a few hyclones in the stacks to improve flow while keeping back pressure at the required level.

i have one on my 5L diesel hilux. i like it it does get a pain in the ass because i didnt put a flex joint in and it drones through the tray but you can only hear it at idol.

wat he said.

Yeah go the single stack, shouldn't give much trouble regarding back-pressure.

Most of your trouble though will be getting the Series 60 under the hood to match up to it. Might want to check with an engineer first.

Dont get a series 60 unless u want oil leaks.

Talk to the exhaust shop about it and the transport dept.

The exhaust stacks on large semis are allowed because they release the fumes at a reasonable distance above the heads of other vehicles (special dispensation IIRC). On a lowly Hilux I hardly think that will be the case. I think you will find it is 40 cm behind the last opening window and angled down at a 30-45 degree angle.

ADR42 allows for above cab exhausts on commercial vehicles. The outlet must be at least 40mm rearward of the last unsealed joint in the floor pan.

dont listen to them mate, stackes done properly on a decent ute can look sweet and sound good..

ps bogdy home made stacks reak of bogan pride!

Problem is to do them properly it will probly cost some serious $$ for stainless heat shield surounds etc etc... and not sure weather the diameter of pipe for a little lux would gain any respect... patrol or cruiser you could get away with easier...

to the non believers!

ps make sure you get those rattley exhaust tops.... most anoying thing ever!

Chrome truck stacks on utes make baby jesus cry. However, I have built a car with a "stack" exhaust and there is a practical place for them -

It can be hard to route an exhaust past shocks/tank/winch/ whatever behind the cab of a 4WD.

A stack won't fill up with water if the engine is killed underwater

A stack isn't vulnerable to getting smashed under the car

It doesn't stir up dust like downwards facing undercar exhausts

They don't have to be 6" diameter, chrome, or even (very) visible.

Example - This car has a stack in this photo.

Yes, they are legal on commercial vehicles.


However, it doesn't sound like banks001 has any practical reason to run one, and is after something big and chrome, and that brings the Grimace.

Yep Steve, If its going to be used, fair enough, if its not......stop being a W@NKER!

Dano.

On a F250 or F250 they look pretty decent.

I've seen them on the jap 4wds hard to say about the look
also seen them on utes.

Usually they are shorter than a normal routed exhuast so may offer some extra power, they usually do on the F250/350 going by the kits, yet again they are also 5+ inch pipes.

Only other problem might be rain.
