ebay dual exhaust

Post by Graphite SRT » Thu Mar 19, 2009 12:02 pm

has anyone ever bought one of these.

I have to get a muffler for inspection and it also has to fit the lip kit.

From the pictures it looks like it may hang bellow.

I was looking at one of those the other day! They look to be to the same spec as the R/T so I bet it wouldn't be too bad.

..and here's a pic of how it hangs... I don't know if it lines up with the cut-outs of a lip kit tho.... never put my rear on, and it may not even be the same exhaust...

looks like the vibrant rear section to me, if you could email the seller and have them measure the tips from center to center and then measure your cutouts from center to center you will know, other than that its kind of a guessing game...

If it's the same exhaust from that video, it doesn't sound anything like the vibrant which is pretty loud.

I'd go with the trubendz exhaust personally, It's pretty cheap and the magnaflow muffler sounds great and is good quality.

quiet is what im looking for, i am going to have a cutout for when i want loud.

It looks like that one will not fit the lip kit, i remember having to cut into the bumper behind the lip just to get the exhaust i have now to fit up in the cutouts. I do not want it to hang bellow.

Did you not keep the stock SXT exhaust? You're swapped correct?

I had one of theses on my car (it just sits and collects dust in the garage now)

It did seem to hang a bit low on one side, so i got one of the exhaust clamps and put it around the rubber exhaust hanger and tightened it up till it was level with the other side. Worked like a charm
