Nice exhaust, nice write up.

 

I just installed the JIC stainless steel exhaust and boy it does purr at idle! I still have the resonator on, but I'll probably take it off this weekend.

Anyway, my question is this...

Those 2 metal wires or "strings" that came with the exhaust - WHERE DO THEY GO? I know they're supposed to tighten something, BUT WHAT?!

 

hey.. I got your IM. At first I thought they might be for grounding purposes. Then I thought they could be for securing the SS clamp connections - however, I doubt they would hold if the bolt came loose.

So I'm gonna go with a ground.. Normally you see the ground around the cat bolts before the rear 02.

 

Very nice. I don't normally go for the angled look, but the Evo pulls it off well...escpecially since the tip is so CLEAN!

 

Is the JIC angled out? Can you snap a pic of the rear. thnx

 

Nice write up, thanks! Please hook us up with a sound clip if you can.

 

Could someone bring back these photos... I look everywhere and cant find a
"real" photo of JIC catback...

I like to make sure that it's a TRUE 3.15" inch with no taper down ANYWHERE...
Also want to see if thats a straightest possible exhaust..

Thanks,

 

it has a taper on the flange that mates to the cat, & inside the resonator, didnt have a tape-measure on me, but it looks like 2.5 to 2.75 if my memory serves me.

 

Whats up where are the pics that were attached to the write up?

 

Yea, can someone re-host the pics or maybe have different pics of the JIC exhaust?

 

bump!

 

wait, so JIC still has a taper at the flange on their bullet series? I thought they updated that and made it 80mm all the way minus the res. of course.

 

What do you want to see on it? I have the JIC exhaust but I don't want to have to remove it to take pics. There are some pics in the registry of my car if you want to take a look. naucrx's 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution

Yes, the JIC bullet exhaust has a taper.

Here's what I did to fix it, cost $50 at a local exhaust shop:

Before:



After: (no, that is not a tin can)

 

^^ is that part mild steel ?? btw thanks for link to pics,

 

well that's well and good for the stainless buyer's but what about those of us who want the ti. model?
