-gutted cats

edit: pipe doesnt touch driveshaft, there is a 4in clearance when the weight is on the wheels.

 

I would take it back and have them fix the issue with the piping touching your DS.

 

ima see what me and a crowbar cant accomplish first

 

Yeah I would definitely do something with the driveshaft issue, but other than that and the kink coming out of the muffler it looks pretty good.

 

WTF is that 130 degree bend coming out of the muffler!!!

 

looks good, other than the driveshaft issue! fix that and ur good

 

whew...didnt really notice, but my longtubes are lookin kinda beat....might be time for some corrosion prevention

 

wats the deal with that!?!?!

 

its not nessessarily a bend. i guess the way he explained to me is his machine couldnt bend the pipe smoothly all the way around, so he did two partial bends, then cut and welded them togeather. It looks bent, but it still flows. That will be getting fixed anyway, gonna have a small peice bent right, cut and pasted in =)

 

I'm not feeling it. That one pipe is coming out and making closer to a 180 degree bend.

True duals on our cars are tought to do because of the narrow center channel and having a parhard rod rear. There is no place for the exhaust to exit on the drivers side of the rear axle. I think a clean single exhaust is better than trying to force a true dual.

 

fram oil filter

 

that bend.......... and that bend should of been the outlet and goin out the drivers side. to me....each side should have an outlet and an inlet not inlet inlet and outlet outlet...

 

then you would have the same thing only backwards. the point was to get both pipes over the passenger side without going under the axle.

 

yeah dont look at that =( i forgot to buy an oil filter and the parts store closed on me...thats what was laying around

dont worry, usually its K&N =)

 

Did you use stainless steel?

 

wasnt stainless, but it was **** that wont rust. damn i cant remember the name! ill call and get back to you.


BY THE WAY, there is a 4 inch clearance from the driveshaft and exhaust when the weight is on the wheels =]

 

Aluminized Pipe?

 

Is your magna-flow x-pipe stainless? All I could find by Magnaflow for the x-pipe was their stainless one and I don't want stainless. I really like how the magnaflow x-pipe keeps the pipes cloe together exiting the X

 

yeah the xpipe is stainless. I got it from somewhere other than magnaflow but it was advertised as a magnaflow xpipe. it cost me about 84 bucks.

 

with 2.5" pipe couldn't you go over both sides of the axle? it would make the X muffler in the rear a lot better fit
