Louie, how did you cut out the rear of your bumper to look that good? did you just use the cutouts for the r/t exhaust to start with?

basically. . the first exhaust i've ever had on it was a rice cannon out of the left r/t cutout. i didnt like the empty cutout so i took a straight edge and made a line. .and pulled out the dremel. then i took some sandpaper and sanded it smooth.

then. .i got an srt4 rear section, and had to cut it wider, so i took advantage of it and changed the shape too.. this time i cut it with a razor blade. cuts like butter.

i did the same type of thing in front. . foglight mounting cups, lower grill llittle stick things.

i am thinking of doing that to my car, to fit the SRT exhaust when i get hit in a couple weeks. buut also because my bumper, when i got the car, was warped from the stock exhaust, it looked as thiough it had gotten extremely hot and melted the bumper a bit, and in the middle of the bumper, it is kinda warped too, so i wanna get rid of those warps... sorry for the book and the thread jacking...

Thanks louie, looks like i have a new project to do

its not hard. .just take your time. .and be careful not to melt the bumper with the dremel.

and i suggest a fiber cutting wheel for it.

or. .if you trust yourself with a razor blade. .use that.

It's not a dual exhaust. It just has dual tips.

I don't understand why people want 2.25 inch piping on a N/A car anyways, I just say whatever.

Louie · Post by **Louie** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 10:06 am

yea magnaflow sounds amazing. a little raspy above 5k, but thats just because thats the only muffler on my system.

note, who has 2.25? u lost me

and no..its not true duals. .but its much easier writing "i like the duals better" than "i like the single exhaust with the dual tips better"

The stock SRT-4 Exhaust is 2.25.

randy, do you realise you are making absolutely no sense whatsoever?

I always thought all neons had 2.25 stock piping so what are you guys talking about?

My point is, there isn't any performance difference from a stock Neon Exhaust vs. SRT-4 Exhaust

(Some people don't understand this)

some peopel want it for the look... not the performance...

So you own the APC Red LED Neon muffler tip?

Post by **Diablo0** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 7:44 pm

Ummm... there are more things than just the size of the piping, there is also the muffler design. Stock has a muffler which is more or less built for nosie reduction than performance. The SRT is a less restrictive mufflerless exhaust system.

Then again I guess I have to bring up piping size for just the sake of bringing it up. Non-Magnum exhaust (SXT, ES, SE, ect) is 2" so the SRT exhaust is actually larger. On an Magnum the piping is 2.25" so on those the piping is the same size. So what do you get, on a Non-Mag going to the SRT exhaust you get larger piping and less restriction b/c you're getting rid of the restrictive muffler. On a Magnum you're pretty much just getting less restriction. BUT with that less restriction you gain more noise b/c of no muffler which generally speaking a non Turbo'd car needs to have a muffler to be bearable and *cough* not get tickets *cough*

plus the mufflerless exhaust will sound raspy aka shit.

There are performance differences

What the hell does that have to do with it. Some people buy it for the looks of the dual tip exhaust

I understand it might be .25 inch bigger, but why the fuck would you want 9 bends of piping on your car?

Damnit, my image isn't loading that I wanted to post. Will edit later with image.

Post by **Diablo0** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 8:19 pm

On a turbo'd car it's not a good for performance since you really want to get the exhaust out with the least amount of resistance as not to put any backpressure on the turbo. Plus you have more air flowing through since you are pumping more air into engine. But we are talking about N/A Neons here and those bends aren't to influencial on performance since we aren't shoving as much air through the exhaust system as a turbo'd car..

I bet they are influenical, just not as much.

Post by **Diablo0** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 8:33 pm

Ok, are we talking about huge gains here??? Going from my stock R/T muffler to the Thermal only shows gains of less than 4-5whp. I highly doubt those bends cause enough resistance to be noticeable on a N/A sub 140 whp Neon.

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 8:47 pm

no, i don't have the APC Red LED tip... that's for ricers. i outgrew that shit. all show does not mean rice.

The more horsepower you make with other modifications, the more exhaust matters.

Post by **Diablo0** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 9:40 pm

But exactly how many neons out there NEED something out of the 2.25" size piping and would need to get rid of those 9 bends? Not that many, just look on here and the ORG, there are VERY VERY few. But from what you are saying, the Mopar SRT upgrade exhaust is perfect for all of us. It's 2.5" and only has what... 2-3 bends...

Oh wait...

noTe wrote:I don't understand why people want 2.25 inch piping on a N/A car anyways, I just say whatever.

Damn, I guess 2.5 is uselss also, but wait if 2.25 is useless on a N/A car why are you so concerned of these 9 bends.

Gonna have to quote evlneon on this...

evlneon wrote:randy, do you realise you are making absolutely no sense whatsoever?

EDIT, just an FYI for everyone thats reading. I do not encourage the use of SRT exhaust due to it being a mufflerless setup on a non-Turbo'd car. This setup will be loud without proper modification to reduce the noise.
