exhaust !!!!

[AspitFire]

Ok guys...if you knew or not my stock exhust had a hole in it...now today when i was croissing a bumpy intersection my exahust got REALLY loud i think it broke before or after the CAT man is it ever loud...everyone looks at me now....anyway i now NEED to get and exhaust...i called extrem and they said around $250 for mandrel bent cat back to muffler...they said it may be more or less they would have to see it that $250 includes labor too...but i dont know what to do....greddy and borla are like $500 right??? what about pacesetter??? or if i do custom what muffler to go with...?? thanks!

pacesetter will cost you about $150... i think that it is a 3 piece design...

in the meantime... get some exhaust pipe tape or something...

or.. if you just need the pipe between the cat and the muffler.. mine is @ jeremy's house (unless he tossed it)... u can have it... i'm not sure if it will fit though???

[AspitFire]

will the pacesetter rust?? is the pacesetter mandrel bent?? if i get that i would swap out the muffler for a new one..kinnda like mike did.... besides from my car being REALLY loud now...it actually doesnt sound that bad...it is has a really DEEP tone...but to loud..i can feel the floor vibrate...

[rebby]

i think that the pacesetter is stainless steel and that it is mandrel bent... u might want to call Nopi (or somebody else that carries it) to be sure though...

[everetty]

I'm pretty sure I remember reading that the pacesetter is aluminized steel, and I don't think that will rust.

:lol: i wish :lol:

the price has gone way up over the last year... w/no 33% coupon @ carparts.com anymore... expect to pay around $400 for it... i paid about $375 w/a 25% off coupon... that was the best deal that i could find!

pacesetter is aluminized steel no rust and i just ordered it for 150.00 and I will tell you all what its like. and josh, curts exhaust (stock) is still here in my garage so if you want it for parts let me know by monday night cuz tuesday is trash day.

pace setter is alumadized steel. it will rust but only if it scrapes the ground or rusts from the inside out. also mufler looks and sounds fine to me. i bought my muffler cause i like dtm style mufflers. also greddy is like 600 and it comes with the same 2.5 inch mandrel bent pipes. and in my opinion probes with open pipes are still way less loud than all the chevys with duals


your car cant be that loud. my truck with a 454 and open headers that was loud.

[MN Probe GT]

My greddy was $490.

[Racer X]

damn really ive seen a used gready go for 425 on pt i think greddy is a rip off. looks cool on 95+ car though. remus looks best on 93/94 cars remus is like 600 bucks dou

thanks for all your feedback ..i will be ordering the pacesetter here soon...did you guys order it from nopi?? im not saying my car is louder then some trucks with dual exahust or anything i am just saying it is loud cuz i am pretty sure it broke before the cat...so pretty much after the headers there isnt anything in its way...but anyway..how long did your order take mike??? I really dont like the pacesetter muffler i..dont like the yellow in the tips so thats why i would get a new muffler...

[Eric94GT]

hey kirk, where did you use the lift to put the exhause on?

If this summer I bought a borla exhaust, hi-flow cat, and headers, how long do you think it would it take me to put them on if I had access to a lift. I might be able to use the one at a friend's work.

What about on just jack stands :( ?

[MN Probe GT]

Deleted what post?

Those pics were taken at EP transmission (chris carlsons dad owns the place or something) Jack stands would really suck. And we needed to use air tools to get the cat bolts off.

You should check and find out where it broke... Mine stock exhaust busted right in front of where it went into the muffler. If that's the case, you're in for an easy repair (by the way, if you buy a cat-back system you can do it yourself - just some bolts - even easier than a valve cover (and much bigger bolts too!)

If it actually did bust before the cat - then anything you replace after the cat will make no difference.... And that piece before it is what you should be replacing. I don't know specific numbers, but I'll bet that piece isn't cheap...

Make sure you know what is busted before you spend money fixing it, know what I mean?

I know, gtting back on topic again...

[MN Probe GT]

removing the stock exhaust was not easy for me. I had to saw it in half because the bolts were rusted so bad. I had to use an impact wrench to get the cat bolts off. wasn't fun. And it was on a lift too. Still probably easier than valve covers though.....

[AspitFire]

good point...i will check it out tomarrow...i still need/want a new exaust anyway...
