|
|
I am working on my exhaust system and started to think about exiting the exhaust just in front of the (U.S.) drivers' side rear tire. I wondered if anyone else has done this and what your thoughts are on the look and sound. For now I am using 2-1/2 inch pipe through a round magnaflow muffler. I am almost to the point where I need to decide in order to finish the project. Any thoughts or input would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Too easy to damage if you go offroading, intentionally or not.
There's also the problem of heat coming up through the floor... _________________ Vaughan Scott

I did do it on mine,
I used 2.5" pipe, I could only get a cherry bomb to work under the middle everything else was too big and would have been torn off on speed bumps etc.
Be forwarned it was LOUD _________________ 3 928s, |

Lizard -
how/where did you attach the tail pipe? I was looking at a few places but was not sure where it was safe to drill into. _________________ 1979 924 n/a

I had one hanger right off the headers, another at the 90 and that was it, I didnt get too much flex in it and didnt hear much banging at all. _________________ 3 928s, |
