Corksport Exhaust ?

[evilmonkeyMSP]

so, Ive got my exhaust on & besides some minor hanger issues I love it. I just have a ? tho. Now i am getting some nice carbon buildup on the body right above where the tip is. I know this car runs rich as hell but gees....

Now my ? is, is there anyway to help reduce this excess & what is the easiest way to get it & keep it off the body?

i had it reflashed when i first got it back in 03...will disconnecting the battery somehow cause it to go back to how it was originally?

no it won't.....do you have cats with that exhaust?

If you don't that's why you are getting so much s***, i just have a catless dp and stock catback and i get a lot of black shiznit.

yeah...no cats, thats what i figured but just wasnt sure as to an easy way to keep it from building...besides wiping it off every day.

That s*** wont damage the paint will it?

yea it wont affect anything by dis-con. i agree with hooked up... you could just run more boost to burn it up.. lol but.... then again... (omg) (omg) go boom boom.... j/k dont know what to tell ya.

a hi-flow cat won't even fix it, you have to get some sort of air-fuel timing (DSM afc, Unichip, MPI Tuner, etc.) and hopefully that would lean out the air fuel ratio so you wouldn't have so much buildup

You have a couple of options-
- Clean that spot with every wash (if you wash weekly like me).
- Paint the underlip black (see Wings West rear).
- Through tuning lean your car out so its not as rich...
- Put your cats back on.

Briefly I wanted to paint mine...but instead I clean it non-stop.
