Funny how he changed it.. [8D]

 

didn't want to **** off the local female population here....I hear they get offended rather easily [8D]

 

Okay, first of all, from a parent's point of view: teenager+sports car = bad

Second, the GT takeoff muffler is one of the few mods I'd let my teen driver do, because it is so harmless. Unbolt old muffler, bolt on new muffler, and that's it. There's a slight decrease in backpressure, which should (using my parental-form of logic) actually relieve pressure on the catalytic converters and help them to last longer.

Just remember..... teen driver + sports car + (think before you act) = not so bad [8D]

 

the cats are WWWAAAAYYYYYYY up front, the muffler is WWWAAAAYYYYYY out back, separated by 6' of exhaust pipe. A new muffler will have no bearing at all on the cats. In fact, as someone else posted, a new performance muffler will actually decrease back pressure. Possibly making your cats last longer, while improving fuel mileage slightly. It's like changing your shoes, it will make no difference to your hat.

 

ken, my man. either u have no idea what 6' is, or u just cant judge distance/length. theres no way theres 6' between the two... more like 2 1/2-3'. dork?

 

chris, I am a parent of a teenager (she drives a Focus) so I understand their concern when it comes to messing with cars that may void the warranty or not pass state inspection.
I just had duals put on a couple of weeks ago, andwas concerned at first that the cats would be tampered but like many have posted before me, they aren't affected by the GT mufflers. I love they way they look and sound now!

 

I'll pull a tape across mine from the cat to the mufflertonight, then we'll see who's the dork ?
