lol, the neighbors that used to yell all the time got tired of hearing us early saturday mornings workin on the cars, they ended up moving,

the muffler is stock, i dont really know if theyre are any exhaust leaks, any easy way to tell?

whitemustang02 · April 5th, 2008, 08:43 PM

get under the car and looks for black soot around the connections

dgt_mustang · April 5th, 2008, 08:47 PM

wish it wasnt dark outside, ill have to do it tomorrow, anything else to look for?

... here is how you can tell... on a cold morning start your car in the garage and let it sit there with the garage door half down, if you start smelling sulphates and phosphate and chemicals that aren't normal then they are gutted... cats eliminate harmful chemicals, some which have an odor that you can smell

MWWarlord · April 6th, 2008, 01:13 AM

No cats with a stock setup...yeah it sounds like crap. However, I would recommend high flow cats over a catless setup. No legal issues and it still sounds good.

ahh i miss arizona.. can do what ever the fuck you want...

Dansby · April 6th, 2008, 01:30 AM

If I was a cop, I would pull over a 4x4 ricer too.

Jaylyons1 · April 6th, 2008, 09:45 PM

Id say no.. but im no expert!

RavensChild · April 6th, 2008, 11:24 PM

and here i come with a stupid little question about exhaust,

so a o/r pipe is a catless setup, correct?

Trent-04v6 · April 7th, 2008, 03:26 AM

ON SUBJECT: that sounds like a stock v6 that is getting a rev way to freakin early in a cold start.

<---97cobra btw just on my gfs comp n she was allready logged on so i figured id bump up her post count. lol
