RE: LOUDER CANS! LK? - LKTraz - 05-30-2016
At the most a hacksaw to remove old mufflers.
Pull clamps and try to wiggle/pull old ones off first. If they won't come off then hacksaw just forward of the clamp location.
New ones will only require wrenches or ratchet and sockets to install.
The ramps should give you ample room to work.
I have air cutters but that's only for a more convenient way to cut off rusted clamps and pipes. Still need to use a hacksaw to finish pipes as I can't get to the tops with the cutter.

X-pipes have been around for quite a while, this one just has the Roush name on it.
RE: LOUDER CANS! LK? - Twitchin Kitten - 08-31-2016
erm, yeah. I'm talking about the sound
RE: LOUDER CANS! LK? - Biker Dude - 08-31-2016
I prefer to hear them under load, such as on a dyno:
RE: LOUDER CANS! LK? - Twitchin Kitten - 09-01-2016
Yeah but that car isn't using the added on pipes like they show in the article and video, it comes with those, no? Also sound inside a garage vs outside in the open air are going to give you two different sounds and levels of loud.
I'm still trying to find the pipes I want and was set on the manglaflow's until I heard those from Roush.
RE: LOUDER CANS! LK? - Biker Dude - 09-01-2016
Like I said before, youtube. You can get all tied up over the sound, in a garage, behind the car not inside it, with green eggs and ham... The one from behind it is nothing you will ever hear while driving. Chances are whatever you pick, you will be happy. Borla, Roush, whatever...
RE: LOUDER CANS! LK? - Twitchin Kitten - 09-01-2016
Yeah, I know, but they each have something a tiny bit different than the other in sound and it is making the choice harder. Sometimes too many choices can be a bad thing.
RE: LOUDER CANS! LK? - Twitchin Kitten - 09-05-2016
OK I'm at a loss for info here.
I can't find a place online for "suggestions" on what is sold or anything for my car specifically.
I WANT CHERRY BOMBS! they have the sound that makes me giggle in delight.
They have no site.
I don't know what to put on there without losing back pressure etc.
HOW complicated are they to put on compared to the Magnaflows?
Am I better off buying the parts and having my mechanic do it? Can I DIY without issue?
Throw some knowledge at me guys.
RE: LOUDER CANS! LK? - Twitchin Kitten - 09-05-2016
I'm confused. are they American or UK?
