Exhaust Mod pictures and video (including no exhaust ;))

GewoW · 04-04-2011, 04:23 PM

So I modified my exhaust from the previous car that was flooded (check sig). Here are pics and video.
The car sounds waaay better. It has developed a bit of a "nosey" tone at 2500-4000 which is more exotic. The walls resonate in tunnels which is always fun. A bit more bassy down low. Can hear the difference all the way to redline. So very happy I did this.

About 30% louder IMO.

VIDS - watch in order (and HD). It goes without saying that they cannot really recapture the essence of the sound:

montreal red · 04-04-2011, 05:21 PM

the new tips look pretty good but maybe you shouldnt have painted it all black. cant see them now.

Sean05 · 04-04-2011, 05:25 PM

i would have just painted the muffler cause the new tips looks nice.

GewoW · 04-04-2011, 06:27 PM

Meh! no big deal tbh. Lol the sounds makes me forget about any potential pitfalls.

kcdude24 · 04-04-2011, 08:02 PM

Sounds and looks great....can you provide some details?

What tips?

What type of coating?

It looks like welded patches over the existing perforated pipes. Do they completely wrap around the pipe and then just tacked in/welded down the seam?

saeedg48 · 04-04-2011, 08:06 PM

sounds pretty beastly.

Tips 304 SS 2.5''
Coating high temp powdercoating
Welded patches is what i believe was done, not a whole uncut tube as this, I believe, would require cutting it from both sides.

wow that sounds awesome. I kinda of like the black tips, its nice to see it switched up every once in a while

Stainless 45 · 04-05-2011, 09:20 AM

Did you have them cover both sets of perforated pipes (there are 2 per side) or just one in each chamber? I recall one guy who covered them both and removed all the "steel wool" and said it was too loud, like straight pipes. Very clean mods and awesome sound BTW

Exactly, I didn't want that. Just one pipe - the longest one. And the fiberglass stayed in.
