Well, its new to me! lol

Matt (93luminaz34) and I traded exhausts yesterday, he wanted quieter, I wanted louder. Heres a before and after vid... before you comment on the before part let me say a few things, the car was COLD, first start up of the day, the smoke isn't new but it passed e-test that way I'm not burning oil or coolant that I know of, pretty sure it was just cooler outside so you get that.

Now I'm going over in my head if I want to go through with FWI, its now pretty loud... I might try it, we'll see.

nice...but yikes...Don't rev the crap out of it while it's cold!

 

Yeah, I wasn't thinking, I was just in too much of a hurry to get to Matt's and get started on the work before it started to rain. In hindsight I should of waited till I got to Matt's to do the before vid.

Yeah that loud exhaust has gotten me into more than my fair share of trouble over the years so I decided to go back to stock exhaust. To much attention from the police, neighbours, pretty much everyone :lol:

 

Good deal for both of us.....trade exhausts + 150 from Jamie. But the exhaust has almost $400 in Magnaflow components alone.

 

I'm glad you like it, it certainly sounds mean, ESPECIALLY when you put an intake on as well.

 

I welded my Z34 tips onto your old GTP exhaust tonight, so now my install is all done. I still can't beleive how quiet it is :lol:

 

I don't miss the rasping between 2000 and 2500 thats for sure.

Matt, what did you do to get the Mufflers to sit straight? it doesn't look like you rotated either of them...

 

As Matt requested, here is the vid of his Lumina getting pulled back into the driveway, no exhaust past the down pipe!

As for my intake, I'm gonna go ahead and make it, but if it ends up being too loud it may be a "track use only" situation, we'll see.

I shortened the hanger for the left muffler by about an inch, and then welded the tips to suit the cutouts.

 

I wanted to rotate the left muffler a bit, but once its been clamped its pretty much impossible.

 

Thanks for posting that vid. :lol:

yeah....there was some POS Prelude sitting there that I've never seen before. Horrible fitting body kit on it.
