hey im lookin to purchase some mods from RRM in a couple of weeks. Im looking at purchasing an Axel Back exhuast from RRM ( i would buy the full cat back , but im a cheapy =P and im low on cash) thats besides the point, I wanted to know once you remove the stock piping/muffler, does the axel back parts just drill in the existing screw holes or does more work need to be done, like welding or something like that which takes up a lot of time.??
and does anyone have a clip of what the sound difference is, or atleast what it sounds like? gracias!
Pictures are always great

 

PLEASE SEARCH FOR THE SOUND CLIP

as for your other questions. Once you remove the stock exhaust system, your axleback will bolt right up. HOWEVER, you must get under the car to check if you have a triangular bolt flange, it will consist of a triangular looking connector(3 bolt places). If you have that then it will fit.

No welding is needed. Time takes about 10-15 minutes to take off the old exhaust and in with the new. I did have to modify my hangers, the mech that helped me install couldnt get it on to fit. However, others have got it to fit no problemo.

If you want pics, you can check out my car domain link in my sig.

 

i dont think in the 06 will fit

 

I have an 06 with the Axleback, it fits.

 

Mine bolted right on with no problem, I had to go buy nuts to attach it but that was the extent of my problems

 

ok so basically the '06 ralliarts might need a lil work before attaching. Can this be done without a mech?

 

^ depends if you have any knowledge to do such things, if you have a friend or family member that does this stuff it'd probably be helpful. It's not the easiest thing to jack up the car/electric lift it and get the stocker off, it is bolted on tight. Wouldnt hurt to have a mech do it

 

I had to cut the nuts off my stock muffler (they are welded to it) after breaking the bolts because they were frozen. I have metal cutting blades for my skill saw, you can also use a grinder. I bought three 3/8X1 3/4 bolts with lock washers from Home Depot to replace them. Check your other post about the cat if you want power not sound.

 

what ever, looks like im gonna have to go to a mech =/ im first gonna go to Mitsu dealership to see if they're nice enough to install for a lil cheaper.

 

dealers by me **** you on installing anything. go to a muffler shop or something like that.

 

Before you go and buy RRM's axleback you should check out how much your local muffler shop would charge you to do one. I got a complete cat back for less than the axleback. Just throwing out some options for you.

 

hmmm ... so ralliart50 u have a complete custom cat-back on yer ralliart?

 

Sure do. I also added in an 18" resonator to quiet it down a bit.
