with the amount of expansion and contraction the pipes go through, they like to loosen up...and then sieze so you cant retighten

 

alright so it came in the mail today and it is really small. now should i just cut out my old muffler and have it replaced? thats what i want to do but idk if i can do that myself. i want to take it to a shop and have them weld it into place. any idea how much that will run me?

 

if they charge anymore than 20-30 bucks its a rip off. It should only take like 10 minutes to weld that in.

 

alright but should i have the other one removed and replace the one i have now? and should i have to buy the pipe that they are going to need to do the job? i just dont want to go there and they tell me they charged 60 bucks for some extra piping they needed.

 

Ask them how much they would charge to do the work.

Make sure they understand not to do anything unless you permit them/agree to it before they do the work.

 

they said they would charge me around 70. no more than 90. thats the cheapest i could find around here. i called all the muffler places. this place seems the best so im giving them my business. they specifically specialize in exhaust work so i figured they would take good care of my baby.

 

That seems pretty steep just to weld in a muffler and some extra pipe.

 

i know. its the cheapest i could find around here and i dont know how to weld so i just got it done already.

 

Looks like the stock tailpipe, am I right? How does it sound?

 

yes its the stock tail pipe. it sounds mean. a lot louder. better under 3k rpms a good low tone once it goes into overdrive. im very pleased with it. ill try to post a video sometime if i can figure out how to get them off my phone!!!
