I got tired of ******* with it so I brought it to the exhaust shop last night lol. It's hard to hang a muffler and have the tips and everything ride right when you're laying on your back. I also brought them the tubing/flanges/hanger that I have and I'm going to say "connect this to that" when I go by there today.

This whole system is been a royal PITA. I'll post a nice thread in a few days when it's done though. With the cutout open, it sound ******* WICKED at idle. I think the x-pipe or something was killing my lope, because now it sounds like a t-rex.

Bumpsauce.

I'm not really pleased with the way the exhaust turned out.

I'm going to change it a bit, ordered some tubing from summit and I'll give it a whirl again. With the 4" bullet in the I pipe AND the dual/dual, it is ******* SILENT.

Bumpsizzauce.

I raced an SRT-4 this weekend and couldnt pull him, it was a dead even race. My cutout wouldn't open and this current hackjob wouldn't flow. My SES light was on for my O2's not working either. Later I found out he runs high 11's, so I don't feel so bad anymore.

Bump. This is why I'm re-doing my exhaust.

http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...t/IMG_1742.jpg

Looks like it flows great up into the catback huh?

I thought he was going to miter it in nice and soft, make it look like a cutout. Nope.

I'm going to put the cutout below the backseat like it'd done 90% of the time, then reduce right after it to 3", make a 90* toward the driver side, then 90* up into that existing flange.

I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?



Damn that's the most bad *** quote eva.
