Default Custom Single Side: Complete!

Over the Mardi Gras holiday I finally got around to fab'in up my custom single side exhaust. Thanks to my buddy Kris and Stells370 for helping!

What I used:

Buddy Club Pro Spec 3" universal muffler in brushed stainless
Vibrant 3" stainless quiet high flow resonator
Surewin stainless Y pipe (with ported and smoothed merge)
(3) Vibrant Stainless 2 bolt flanges w/ 2 gaskets

I bought 5ft of 3 inch stainless tubing, 1 90*, 1 45* and 1 *180. I used maybe 1 ft of the straight, the 45* and part of the 90*.

First I started by removing my Stillen CBE and putting it on the scale.

75lbs for this monster! It weighs a ton!



I don't have many pictures of the progress but my buddy took a few pics of us working.



The hardest part was making the bend around the sway bar and under brace... because of the 3 inch pipe, it does hang a little low.



My buddy and I TIG welding up the resonator...


Everything pretty much done, except for the hangers and final welding.


All finished!








It sounds amazing. It is loud... compared to the quiet Stillen. But, it weighs in at 35lbs said and done. Which saves about 40lbs from the Stillen... or even stock setups. I love the way it looks and couldn't be happier with how it turned out!

I'll have a sound clip coming soon.. I have to charge up the Go Pro!

Thanks for looking!



Sounds clip. Sorry for the shaky video.
