Default clamp exhaust

has anyone used or seen clamps used in exhaust? because im thinking of doing this along with an o/r h pipe and 40 flowmasters, i just want to do it myself instead of welding, clamping seems more easy to take off to pass emissions tests

Well the o/r mid pipe is gonna be nuts and bolts. A cat-back is where you are gonna be using clamps. I used clamps on my cat-back and they work fine. Just gotta make sure they are on good so it doesn't leak. Also welcome!

On the cat-back yes you can use just clamps. The mid pipe bolts up to the headers and bolts onto the cat-back. You can do the whole exhaust without welding.

Are there any mufflers that can clamp on or can any mufflers be clamped on?

As long the piping is the same diameter it should clamp right on.
