Exhaust Update
« on: September 15, 2004, 05:06:45 PM »
After installing a Thorley header and high flow cat and 2" muffler and tailpipe. I have gained 3mpg on the highway which is great with the gas prices in Ca.

Oh, did you have to have any custom exhaust work done to fit the CC to the header or to the exhaust pipe?

Yeah, does it make a nice sound? How is it off the line with that combo?

It sounds good not to loud but you can hear it. It was a magnaflow muffler. There's quite a bit more power from idle through 5000 rpm. It revs alot easier now. I removed everything, installed the header,then towed it to a muffler shop for them to do the rest.  :)

Didn't want the noise ticket??  ;D

Those flames get pretty big out the end of a header without the pipe!  ::)
