without a doubt I am doing this in 3 weeks when I get a break from the hospital. To think that I was about to pull the trigger on a $1200 + catback I don't really care about the gains... I just want a nicer tone.
Thanks for the great Idea.

I personally would suggest ppl to actualyl get pipes bent with tips if you dont' want gains and just want the sound.

1) All the exhausts would go out the back and not have any running around the bottom of your car

2) When you floor it the exhaust sound doens't open up as much as a CBE or muffler delete cause enough gases are going through the muffler.

Sounds like a leaky stock exhaust to me. Oh wait, nvm.

Okay so granted it's a pretty cheap and/or ricey mod, but nobody is going to DIE from this. The place they are putting the washers is like a foot from where the regular exhaust dumps out...ever heard of diffusion of gases? Thats why you can sit inches behind your car with it running and it will never kill you.

I can probably confirm this, seeing as my exhaust on my Camaro was fully dumped RIGHT below my drivers seat lol. I certainly didnt pass out...

Man...you guys are rough. What's so bad about what these guys are doing? A couple members here have done the muffler delete and nobody had anything bad to say about them. All these guys are doing is a partial muffler delete. We all know it's not a performance mod, but WHO CARES??? You guys should use the time that you're spending picking on these guys and use it to make fun of the dude that's running stetched tires and a -12 degree rear camber.

Seriously.

Why not do a more permanent solution? Drill a bunch of holes in the muffler. Problem solved!

You know someone's gonna read that and say 'Oh that's a great idea!' and then do just that, right?
