    This is what I made in an afternoon. Cut the exhaust before the kneck down (2.5" to 2.25") so it was 2.5" into a 2 chamber flowmaster then it's 3" out the side with like a 4 or 4.5" tip, it didn't end up as far back as I hoped though. It cost me a total of $0.00 .... It works for now but I want a louder muffler to set off some alarms. [​IMG][​IMG]

    uh huh...where did you have it dumped?




    btw where you have it exit will make a huge difference in sound (follow me on this). if it exits outside of the body it will a sharp insteaneous sound where if you have it dumped you will get a mellower more average sound, will also set off more car alarms this way :birgits_tiredcoffee
