markxr6t Member 476 Member For: 20y 3m Location: Perth WA Posted 21/05/07 12:48 AM Share Posted 21/05/07 12:48 AM 80$!?I tried to get this done, and they wanted to charge me 400$ for it.. just for straight through pipe, no hotdogAnyone know where I can get this done in the Perth area? ;\Grapnel Mufflers in Balcatta are the only exhaust place I rang who would happily remove mufflers and weld in pipe. They quoted $140 and were the only place who didn't automatically try to sell me a whole new system. (ie they'll actually do what you ask for).

Just recently bought an 04 envy green xr6t ute.After alot of reading on the forum about exhausts think I have decided to get the centre muffler removed and replace with straight pipe in stead of with the hotdogs. doing it for the sound effect and as it is a ute drone wont effect me (hence opting not to use hotdogs). Just wanted to ask if anyone new a good exhaust shop to go to on the south side of brisbane that do good work. any help would be great P.S, I like a nice loud sound but dont want it to end up like a B&S ute( loud) I want a nice hway note but then when you put ya foot down people will notice. is the straight pipe to loud? or is it the way to go.

If you want it loud leave the hotdogs out!! when you replace the centre muffler ask them to make it flanged so it bolts straight in and make sure its mandrel bent!! should set you back about $270 for a good set up.

I checked the welds, nice pool effect and no splatter, and most of all no leaks. Pitty your on the other side of the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or if anyone has a section sitting around....I know Vik did once and I wish I'd picked up his dogs when they were on offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
