what cat-back system do you have?

Two bolts and a cutter take the exhaust right off

Rdss, that thing is a beauty.

How did you take off the stock cat back?
Did you have to cut it?

Thanks!! Like SBPPhoenix said, just unbolt from the cat/test pipe and I cut in the middle of the straight pipe right before it goes up over the axle. I plan in having a fling welded in so I can put it back on later if need be.

Heres what came of my tailpipe. It really brought the sound down and about 95% of the resonance. I was kind of on the fence and was looking for other muffler options but not any more. I plan on getting a nice band clamp for the tip and at some point I will either paint it or have one piece of pipe mandrel bent to match what I have.

Nice looks awesome sound clip is a must now lol


And were is that thing about how they cant void the warrenty for a catback

 

[rdss]

I will work on the sound clip. It's the Magnasun Moss Act, I have voided my Cat back warranty (and technically second cat since it's been pulled, but it will go back in before going in for warrenty work), but they can not void any other warrenty unless they can prove that the problem was a direct result of the cat back.

Ok thanks ya i wish the sedan catback can complety bolt off

Thats what was stoping me from doing a catback

 

[rdss]

No problem. Yeah, a simple flange would have made our life easier but added cost at the factory.

 

[sonic hotness]

Ya that's for sure. Lol

Ya I plan to put
A 2.5 inch piping with a resonator and a es tuning muffler with a down tip like OEM hopefully not to loud

 

[rdss]

That should be a nice set up.

 

[mitdr774]

Even if I end up with this exhaust for my car I may still just use a turndown instead of having a big tip out the back.

 

[sonic hotness]

Ya i like the turn down


Anyone else have a custom system
