UNBROKEN’s Iconic Silver ST build

[eec78]

Swapped the mufflers out...100% lateral move from the Magnaflows. No change in tone or volume I can discern and still shows a peak in cabin of 187hz. Looks like I’ll be building another set of resonators and leaving it alone now.
If anyone was looking to build a system though I’d recommend the Vibrants based on length alone...being 3” shorter than the Magnaflows makes packaging a lot easier.

At one point I think you said you were waiting for the Thermal setup - are you still going that route eventually or you sticking with your custom setup?

No, I waited as long as I could stand to then did my own thing.

Any sound clips of your exhaust system as it is?

 

[UNBROKEN]

More sound deadening. I didn’t even try for 100% CLD coverage here...there’s way more than enough. There’s a LOT of crap behind these panels too. I spent more time removing stuff than putting in CLD and CCF.
I added CLD and CCF to the rear ac ducting...they definitely needed some mass added and I figured the CCF may even make it blow colder.
I have a ton of CLD so I figured I’d slap some on the sub enclosure...that thing sounds like a tin can when you tap on it. Should be a little better bass response now. Anyway...all that’s left is the floor and that will happen when it’s gutted for the actual audio install. I don’t feel like pulling the seats twice.

Looks like your car was asked to visit the inspection bay at the Mexican border.

Save this...someone put a lot of effort into it. A couple of screw counts are off and the crash bar is 13mm, not 12 but other than that it made my life super easy.

Would it be possible for you send me this file - it's not opening for me either, mine is enroute as well and I'm trying to decide if I want to attempt it on my own

Message me your email address.

I opened up the slots for the UCA bolt a hair then did a normal alignment.

You wouldnt happen to have a picture or two of how you did this do you? I just installed the springs on mine and my alignment shop is struggling

 

[UNBROKEN]

I don’t. Sorry.
Are they adjusting it from the correct spot? Upper control arm at the frame?

 

[flhx06]

I know they are at the upper control arm. What he told me is that by lowering it it buries the bolt into the frame and there is no room to get to it. He and the other owner of this shop both bought ST's when they first came out so I turned him onto this forum. Neither has lowered theirs though so they haven't experienced this until mine. I am going to mention what you did and see if it makes sense to them. Hopefully I don't have the wrong guys working on this.

 

[UNBROKEN]

It doesn’t “bury the bolt”. That bolt is up high and hard to reach but still readily accessible.

 

[KegsBdry]

I had ZFG kill the engine noise in my tune and make the dash display the actual gear at all times.
Forscan I did Bambi Mode, killed the double honk and I can’t remember what else.

I'm guessing one cannot use Forscan to display the actual gear at all times on the dash?

That is correct.

Haven’t done much lately but I had this on the back burner and finally got to it today. I’ve been through 4 sets of exhaust tips on this thing...I was trying like hell to like the black tips but I just couldn’t do it. Didn’t want polished or chrome either and I decided I hate the double wall tips...and rolled edge tips. I tried both styles. I settled on 4” single wall brushed stainless but the only ones I could find with a 3” inlet were $70 each so I had to get creative. I found some 2.5” inlet polished tips for $14 each...cut them for a 3” inlet then spun them on a belt sander and got exactly what I wanted. I hate crooked tips so I fit them up with a spacer and welded both sets on together.

looks good!!

Based on that pic, I think your left-most tip might be crooked.

Nope...both are dead even. Pic looks off but they’re not.

Yep.....definitely crooked. Better redo them.

I mean, its bad enough he should probably just start from scratch and redo the entire exhaust system at this point.

You’re probably right. If mine looked like that, I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night and I would probably walk crooked too.
