OEM Mod exhaust - 4 pipe
I've been researching this mod for months. I contemplated getting the Megan Exhaust, test pipes, or both ... etc. I thought about doing only the 2 large perforated, or 2 1/2 pipes-- I ultimately went with doing all 4 pipes. I actually went to a local Meinekie and spoke with the owner who actually performed the mod step by step for me. I showed him pics and videos and he was great to work with. All in, it took 2.5 hours from getting the car on the lift to completion.
He went through many blades on his sawzsall and angle grinder, which he wasn't expecting. He used stainless steel pipe as well. I opted to cover the perforated pipes rather than cutting them off and welding on new ones. It was a much easier and faster way to do it. The sound is beautiful! Like most say, it's about 50% louder than stock. Cruising, there isn't much of a difference- zero drone! I paid substantially less than $400.. PM me if you want the price. For anyone in North NJ, I'll hook you up with the place I went to if you're looking to get this done. Next? Maybe resonated test pipes ! |

I thought there were only two perforated pipes on the inside?

No , there are 2 big and 2 smaller perforated areas .
The 2 perforated method are the 2 bigger pipe replacement . All 4 is clear and so all 4 replaced . Here is mine with pics and DIY video (2 big perforated pipe replacement) => http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=733817

Gotcha, thanks! I didn't realize from other pictures, that the pipes that look to have wool wrapped around them are actually perforated. Is that correct?
OP, sorry to whore your thread up with questions! |
