I have been calling around local shops for prices on installation of an exhaust and the eibach pro kit but, I don't know where to go. Do I go to a chain store like midas or meineke or to some ma and pa deal. Any help would be much appreciated.

 

What type of exhaust? Custom, cat-back, axle-back etc?

 

meineke will do it all

 

i actually dont have the exhaust yet, but was holding out for the greddy

 

Get some jack stands and a socket set. It should take an hour. If you can turn a wrench you can install a cat-back. Springs I'd get done professionally. If you don't have a shop you know and trust, go to a chain store where the staff seems to know what they're doing.

 

thank you very much. The cat back will screw on and a newbie like myslef can do it you say. I might give it a thought. I appreciate it.

 

Mechanically it's simple. The only difficult thing is unbolting the piping from the cat (it's torqued on TIGHT), but that can be done with a good amount of WD40 and some muscle.

 

im sure this has been covered and im sorry but, which do you prefer, cat-back or the other kind. The weld on kind i guess. And what do each sound like.

 

cat back is going to be your best performance because you are changing the whole pipe from "the cat back" to the exhaust tip. it will also be louder because of this. for even more performance get soem high flow cats, or remove them completely (illegal, tampering). also a header and downpipe. this will all releave backpressure.

 

what do you personally have on you car

 

Muffler and pipe size determine sound more than anything else.

EDIT: Look in the registry.

 

i have stock. i'm not getting an exhaust til i can afford both a header and exhaust section. i don't like the idea of sounding loud and not being fast (or faster). if RRM has a cat-back out by then, i'll see how that sounds. hobie seems to be an advocate of the buschur. i'd like to see some other companies make catback too like greddy, tt.....i am also considering flowmaster

 

Yes, I am. And anyone at the NY meet this Saturday should get a chance to hear it. I'll get a chance to hear an RRM exhaust prolly too and hopefully compare to some custom jobs. Huzzah!

 

i have the rrm axel back exhaust with a custom 2.25 inch catback . . . sounds really good . . . i'll be at the meet . . .

 

i got a custom, Ask Nycrazy, its loud as hell with my headers
