DIY - Pacesetter , Flowmaster 50 and High flow Cat instal

[tuner-automotive]

Just an update.......

I recently lost my job and the 1835cc engine in my bug is acting up.
So this means that until Im working again the DIY is on hold.

Its all gonna go in the truck , just not as soon as I would have hoped.

ALright , got the Muffler and Cat installed.
Pics are in my user portfolio.
Ill upload them in a bit and give full detail later.

Its all installed except the header, thats next.
Interior sound is MINIMAL.
Throttle response is WAY up!
Time and a full tank of gas will tell HP and MPG gains.
I reset the ECU after install aswell.

Alright heres the cost breakdown for my custom 2.5" header back exhaust
Magnaflow ss muffler = $42
SS High flow cat = $41
Instal with mandrel bends , hangers, and O2 sensor bung = $245
Total for custom exhaust = $328
Thats dirt in my book especially when I get a high flow cat, choose my own Muffler and have full control of how the bends are going down and hangers.
Pics to come, but for now there in my user gallery.

Im pleased thus far.
Thanx go to ...

wow that came out really nice


any side pics? i cant tell where the tip comes out

[tuner-automotive]

Tip comes out in the factory spot. Behind the drivers rear tire.
1st pic shows that.

[silversuper]

yea i got that, just not the height.

i was torn on how high to make mine cuz i didnt want it to hit the fender if it got pressed up and i dont want it dragging all the time

[tuner-automotive]

Oh , sorry .
I guess I didnt understand the Q.
It sits at the same factory hieght , about 1.5-2" from the fender or so.
