i know this may sound stupid , but it's kinda temp depending on how i like it.
now u know by the right rear tire that's were the ehaust bolts are.
well mine's keep breaking apart from there.
i used muffler patch does'nt really work.
it's split again , u can see smoke come from there, i don't really mind i like how it sound's :cool2: .
but when you change gears or sometime's when idled it rattle's in the back.
so can i get like a pipe all the way to the end just take off the muffler, will sound really loud.
or get a pipe make it big kinda pack it on the inside and add twin tip's to it?
any comments are welcomed.

I just wanted to comment that you should get that fixed soon, b/c there is many drain holes in the trunk area that will let the smoke come in the car and we all know that is not a good thing.

yea you can cut off the muffler nad just replace it with pipe. I did it and it was loud but it was more deep then a loud dirt bike. :)

i was thinking though since it's from a v6 it might contain more backpressure than my stock right now?
then again maybe not. i might just do that, what u said, but won't i lose some power?

Back pressure... no no no... The V6 one should have less restriction.

You might lose some velocity though if the chamber is bigger.

Once I went to bone yard and removed "ENTIRE" exshaust system in 20-30 minutes with only a '1/2 rachect long extention an 6-point 14mm socket. Counter guy said he couldn't sell me the whole thing cuz its illegal to sell converters. maybe some states you can

the muffler look's simular to foobari, but close to robt5580.
it's in the SHOW YOUR EXHAUST forum.

it was rattling all day, i looked under and the pipe is somewhat separated from the extension, were from there to the muffler there's about 3 hole's around there.
i also noticed that the muffler piping is smaller than the rest of the exhaust.
everything else is new 'cept for the muffler and it's piping.
