Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 1m 7d Posted 12/09/12 08:42 AM Author Share Posted 12/09/12 08:42 AM Had a good look at mine today and its not flanged after the diff but yours looks like it is Fletty? I think I'm just cut and weld if I have to flange both pipes.After a lot of looking around while I was at supercheap getting oil I had a look at their exhaust tips and got a 2.75inch inlet with twin 3inch outlets (just gonna cut the inlet to 3inch) for $50 in stainless. Only problem is its got rolled tips so gonna weld everything up and put it all together and if its really that bad with rolled tips I'll cut them off and no harm done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, cut it at the same point and weld straight 3" on.Senna, I have thought about that, but im really happy with my ride height at the moment and cutting them down will lower it more? I have SSSL in the back and SSL in the front.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 1m 7d Posted 18/09/12 02:37 AM Author Share Posted 18/09/12 02:37 AM Did this yesterday guys. Looks almost identical the pictures Fletty put up but with polished stainless and twin 3" tips (ended up getting rolled tips real cheap and they sound good so not changing).All up cost $80 for parts and I helped my old man weld it all up. Results are amazing! My dad has header back quad exhaust on his GT and this sounds very similar on idle then gets a little louder through the revs and backs of when cruising.I'll try get a video but sound quality is pretty sh*t on iphones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throw some pics up if you can, I know what you mean about the video, doesn't do justice at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it day to day? What cat back do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 1m 7d Posted 19/09/12 03:40 AM Author Share Posted 19/09/12 03:40 AM Probably not the best pic but this is how it was all tacked in place. All that changed after this was being properly welded up. Unfortunately its not as easy as a job as you would think because the exhaust pipe going into the rear muffler isn't aligned with the tip so we had to cut a slight angle on each end of the straight pipe to make it all fit! Other than that I think it was about 2 hours work but a hoist was definitely needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 1m 7d Posted 21/10/12 03:41 AM Author Share Posted 21/10/12 03:41 AM I think restrictor ring removal you probably need to but rear muffler removal is fine. I'v had mine down for over a month now and so far so good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
