I got my 3in done today, Its from the flexbolts (Name??) back.
I got it done for $175 and its bolt on. I have to go back for the 2nd flange because they ran out. Its crush bent but OMG the difference is HUGE!!!!

The muffler is an OBX B10 N1 (3in inlet) I got it off ebay for $65 shipped (hump)
The car pulls so hard, holds a steady 10psi.......fun fun!!!!!

I'll get better pics of the whole car.

It looks like they did a great job on it, even though it not mandrel bent. Very clean and a great price. I'd like to hear some sound clips.

omg my car is so fast now im going to the track tonight and its not loud its real deep and throaty

Its all in the choice of the muffler. It has some buzz when reved to redline which I dont do offten. Other than that its damn deep.

No check engine light also. (lol2)

3in crushbend should be ok....

Nice work...

one suggestion: UPGRADE THE DOWNPIPE...you will notice more high end power and a bit less torque down low...maybe..

no CEL give it time my friend give it time! Mine comes on every so often just to say hi!

turbo speedy · Aug 7, 2004

lol that kool but mines not on yet and i wanna keep it that way

mspeed101 · Aug 8, 2004

Is this a full 3inch exhaust or just the catback? Also did you run your car at the track yet?

turbo speedy · Aug 8, 2004

Its from the flexbolts back. Its still got the S bend and that little angled piece.

Ive ran at the track a couple of times. My best time is a 14.1@99mph, Ive been getting anywhere from 14.3-14.5's. That was with 10psi and a filter. I was going to the track tonight but it kinda got rained out.
(fu) Florida

Ohh and the CEL comes on and off.....

NoVaMSP · Aug 8, 2004

looks really nice , i think the muffler is to close to the bumper tho
oh and the CEL will deff come on . that lift is awsome i wish that was my backyard !

looks sweet. Post some sound clips.

igdrasil · Aug 8, 2004

Yeah Sound clips

Anyway...Thats Why I think is ridiculous to spend $1,000 on an exhaust setup like I see around! IT SUCKS for those people.

I paid $200 2.5in from the Downpipe to the Back, with a $75.00 Dynomax 3in exhaust.

nice... must be loud (lol2)

jersey_emt · Aug 8, 2004

Mandrel bending pipe doesn't reduce the diameter; crush bending does. This creates the least amount of resistence for the exhaust to be expelled, and therefore will give you more horsepower highend.

This is his friend. I was posting in his name to give the info. hehe

Im glad he decided on that muffler even those I suggested it. I didnt really think he was going to get it. He kinda mooched off our friend Will. He has the same muffler and Sean (owner of MSP) wanted a big muffler. So I told him about the OBX's. Those werent final pics of it mounted, but the muffler isnt that close to the bumper. Ohh and thats actually at a shop. Its called J&V Tires/Mufflers. There cool, they've done my exhaust, my all of my friends exhaust. Its the only shop that deletes cats (nana)

nice... must be loud

Its not loud at all. It may seem loud because its really deep. When boosting it sounds like a monster!!! It backfires when the intercoole gets hot too. I can make it backfire anytime....hehe

The 14.1 was on about 2gallons of 110octain. It was mixed with a few gallons of 93 so it probably made at the most 100-104octain.

Heres final pics. The muffler does look close but its not tha close.

I'll try and get some clips. I got to talk to my friend Mike.

Damn, I'm sorry, but that paint around the muffler is as good as toast.
