Imapal gets a new exhaust! not sidepipes tho :[
So after many painful months of practically open headers. i decided that i finally had enough of it for my daily cruiser. i ordered whatever i needed from summit on tuesday and on saturday, when my boss let me use the shop. i went to town!
ramps were a must and allowed me to not break my neck trying to get under her with just a jack.
not much of an exhaust huh? :lol:
because its a 4.4 with a cam for low end torque and fuel efficiency i wanted a Y-pipe. it isnt tuned but maybe one day when i have more time ill make a new one. i started with my old pipes.
all cut by hand on a band saw
not a bad fit huh ?
after afew measurements, practice fits and the cutting into the straight pipe. i tig welded it all together to create my Y pipe
it fit like a glove
i dont feel like having any problems from anyone as of now so i kept one of my cats.
im a novice tig welder so there not going to win any beauty awards but its strong as hell!
i used a 2.5 hedman baffled muffler because it was cheap and well made. plus allowed me to put it in a tight space.
fully put together.
Some videos of her running. its so quiet when compared to before! its incredible. i started it up and didnt know it was running :lol: but it still has the most important characteristic of all.. it still sounds like a V8 when i get on it it sounds Perfect. its everything i was hoping for. now i can make my camaro that much louder! >
(my electric fans over power it abit but i shut them off)
