Anyone know of a side exhaust that would work on convertibles? There HAS to be one out there, but everything i find says it will not work with the vert. Its kinda funny too, some catalogues(sp?) i have, have a picture of a vert wwith it on, but then it says will not fit a vert. Kinda funny..

 

odd why wouldnt it fit a vert? cuz how the frame is made for verts?

 

Well, in essence the vert kinda has a cheap subframe connector. Im guessing that is what the pipe would hit and cause it to be so low. But everything i find supposedly doensnt fit a vert. I think imma start to have to do some custom fab work to get it to work... its the same thing with long tube headers they wont fit cuase of extra braceing on there too

 

u might wanna ask a local exhaust shop about modifying a setup or ask for there suggestions. its def cause of the SFC

 

Ya i tried a local one the other day and they told me they wont do it cuz its too low.... I guess they didnt notice how low the whole car is and not to mention the front bumper to add to it, so clearance isnt much of an issue to me. So im thinkina ordering in the roush side exhaust and modify it myself to work. I might go shop around and see what others say also.

 

i dont really know how the SFC work cause i have a coupe but could you notch them out for the exhaust then make a u shaped piece of metal to go under and around the pipes to connect the SFC back together. just a though. i dont really know what urs look like thou

 

im almost posotive borla makes side exit kits for a vert check their website but they are expensive $$$$$$$$$

 

ehh, they look like really small subframe connectors a kind of square tubing..not a bad idea tho

 

im not sure how structuarally sound it would be but i dont see a problem with it. If borla makes one it would be bad a$$ but you would also feel it out your a$$

 

i wouldnt not cut up the sfc's. probably a bad idea. they put em on verts for a reason. i just wouldnt trust it. side exhausts do hang really low too. the guys at the shop were right. you have to have a really nice kit w/a muffler w/ in/out on the same side and it all has to be tucked way way up as high as you can get it. i fabbed one up for my car a while back and it was cool but was way way too low and would scrape on anything and everything. just my thoughts about it. it looks awesome though and i think it would be awesome if you did it.
