Is this H Pipe good quality?

Rush · February 21st, 2009, 12:21 PM

I removed my H Pipe today. I filled it full of water and found a pin hole in one of the welds. I had some industrial strength J B Weld, so I put some in the small hole and sealed it up.

The H pipe says "Off Road Use Only". Is this a decent looking H pipe?

I don't know if it is "home made" or not. Is it worth putting back on the car?

Thanks!

yeah its good. and the off road use only is because it has no catalytic converters.

It's also worth a ~11rwhp gain over the stock catted H-pipe.

Does that plate in the pic only say "for off road use only" in small stamped letters? If so, it looks like an older MAC h-pipe. You could sand the entire h-pipe and spray with with high-temp aluminum color paint and be set for a while. VHT high-temp paint is good stuff. As far as quality, if it fits good and doesn't leak, it's good for now.

Hey,

Thanks Guys!

I will get some high temp primer and paint soon and spray it. It seems to be in pretty good shape.

I just didn't know if it was a "home made job" that needs to be replaced or not!

I am really happy with the car so far.
