New exhaust on the lude

Post by LowNSlow » Tue Feb 23, 2010 3:51 pm

Well the lude has 300k on it and it's time to replace the ole' rinky dink muffler that is falling apart from the inside out...it's definitely a rattle machine.

I ended up getting a S2K muffler for free... but it was WAY too huge to fit under my car without dragging.

So I found a oem integra gsr muffler for $75... snagged it thinking I'd be able to make it work.

no dice, it's also a tad bit too big....

so I took the tip off it... and took the car to a local shop.... the plan was to replace just the muffler but turns out theres random holes in the piping from the cat back.

So ok, replace the piping and the muffler, alllllllll good.

They cut the old piping off and look inside the cat... it's all clogged up and has seen better days.

Alright, fine, chop that off as well and put a resonator in it's place.

So what was just a muffler turned out to be a new resonator, piping, muffler, exhaust hangers :P

She sounds stock now....and no more rattles.

:thumbup:

TERRIBLE cell phone pictures but it's about to rain I think so no washing the car for a real shoot.

Real shoot coming soon though, I promise =)

Oh and I used some high heat black paint on the muffler so it didn't stick out like a sore thumb.

butt dyno shows atleast a 300rwhp gain...
