rep for sure...

How well are axel backs supposed to help our cars. Would it even be worth 300+ to add it on (horses to dollar ratio)?

Crazy part is i fired it up with silencer in it and it wasn't that loud close to stock. I will do videos of exhaust note and post them on here.

rep given for doing something different.

bulletSisedan · 02-15-2007, 10:23 PM

I wouldnt run it with the silencer but i dont want that ratteling fart noise....

i hate that noise that ricer civics have.

hoanger · 02-15-2007, 10:51 PM

sweet, thanks for the heads up
if its like stock with the silencer, you should take it off
unless of course you want it to be like stock

It usually doesn't get rattly or tinny unless the resonator and cat are taken off. this should still have a deep throaty tone to it with the silencer out.

Great idea for those on a budget or for something to be different. I hope everything turns out

Thanx man I appreciate that I take your opinion with great respect.

I had my friend weld the exhaust for me last night I forgot my camera.
I will take pictures of it tonight. Keep you guys posted on it.
I still have to smooth out the welds and primer and High temp paint the pipes I made. I will have pix of that also later this week!

:)

Bump bump in the night!

***fiji06si13*** · 02-21-2007, 12:51 PM

Look at begining photos more pix on DIY!

mfinlay04 · 02-21-2007, 01:36 PM

overall not a bad idea just wish you could have gotten some crushed pipe without the stress relief points. Check out some the pictures from mine. I had mine crush bent but the pipe is still smooth inside.

***fiji06si13*** · 02-22-2007, 09:34 PM

Well I had to redo the pipe I had one side to long and the other to short causing it to be to close to the lowercontrollarm and sway bar. When it is being rewelded I will let you know and this time i will have pix and maybe even video!
