LIBERTY B4 CATBACK EXHAUST

  Top of Page

Hey Guys,

Looking to get either a 3" or 2 1/2" Catback exhaust on my B4, found a few on ebay but for a standard liberty.

Does anyone know if the standard catback would fit a B4?

Cheers

it'll fit but there is very minimal changes.
the cat in the N/A is located at a different place compared to the B4, if the cat is in the middle (about where the gearbox is) then that's a straight bolt/weld on. Otherwise youll just need to add or minus some pipe work.

Cheers guys,

Probably to much fooling around, might as well spend a few more $ and get it done properly I guess.

Just one more question, I got turned away from a full 3" from the turbos due to the price. (quoted $1800, SS, which I thought was ridiculous). So I was looking at maby a 2 1/2" catback with a hi flow Cat. What you rekon the power difference would be? I was told there wouldn't be much difference, but I find that hard to beleive. Also a price if any1 has had it done.....

i woulda thought a custom full S/S TBE for that price is about rite. You probably don't need a full S/S so revert to std piping to reduce the cost; unless its your preference for a full S/S.  I think you'll benefit more from a full TBE than just catback.

That price seems reasonable for SS. Do you have a preference for SS?

Do you have a muffler you want to use already? If your on a budget, a mild steel with aluminium coating system is fine. SS costs double that of mild steel, and your only really paying for bling smile

I have just 3inch catback, anymore, and you will need to get a tune.

I just asked for a few more quotes on a full SS 3" around adeladie, $1800 is one of the cheapest I could find...
I'm gonna go for a 2 1/2" with a hi flow Cat. I was told you will get a small power increase plus a nice sound for around my price range. Thats all I'm looking for....

As noted by BigWillieStyles, probably best to get a tune after the TBE install to maximise the mod so you may want to add that to your costs.

Dont go with 2.5 inch just on the basis of your budget. If your just after a note, a muffler change should be fine. My 3inch piping didnt make a difference in the loudness of the exhaust and only a subtle change in the sound.

Btw, I paid 200 for my 3inch catback piping in ms with aluminium coating, plus 100 for a Red Back high flow cat from ebay smile

Hey buddy,

If it is just some sound you are after, take it to an exhaust shop and remove the rear muffler and get them to replace it with a straight out pipe that mounts in the original holes.

It cost me about $70 to get done, My car has a nice note and its still very quiet now. This only slightly richened up the AFR's too.

I did it for the time being just so i could hear my car, and its awesome smile

You can see similar to what it will sound like just by disconnecting the rear muffler and going for a drive. Then with the pipe on it its a cleaner sound
