H pipe adapter

Lepidus · February 9th, 2010, 08:20 PM

Hey I've been looking around to see if this worked. I called AM and asked a guy and he said it works and everything. Then I asked a Muffler shop and the guy said it wouldn't work.

So I'm going to ask here

Would this work? I already have the Magnaflow dual exhaust and I was wondering if the adapter would bolt up and make my car sound and drive faster.

Also The muffler shop guy said I could cut off 2 of my cats since I have 4? Any suggestions? I live in Tx btw. Thanks alot guys!

i too saw this the other day and i think the shop is trying to get you to do there own set up. try another or two so you get more opinions.

Buy your mufflers and tips and get a shop to fab you an h pipe and the rest and you will save money man, thats what I did

Codeman · February 9th, 2010, 09:22 PM

that h pipe will work.

Lepidus · February 9th, 2010, 09:27 PM

Ok so would I need all four of my cats? or can I cut two of them off then put this H pipe on?

Codeman · February 9th, 2010, 09:39 PM

you could cut the front two off, then you would have to have the shop fab up a pipe. I am not sure if you would get a check engine light. All i know is that the h pipe you are looking at will bolt in place or your current y pipe on your car. If you want an h pipe and are having a shop do the install, tell them that you have the cat back system and you want a h pipe and no front cats and get an estimate. I would not think that they would charge 125 for the hpipe. It is up to you. Someone will come in here and let you know about the cats and if it will give you a check engine light.

Alright well when I went to the muffler shop the guy said i can keep the front two near the headers and cut the ones in the back and my I shouldn't pop a check engine light.

i had my back cats cut off and i live in tx but i havent had to get it inspected yet but i think itll be fine and my check engine light hasnt came on.
