If I get a muffler or high flow cat that needs to be welded in my brother can do that at his house using my midpipe. I’m trying to find out what would be good to use and where I could get it locally. If I have to, I’ll put my stock cat midpipe back on so I can get the ticket dropped and have some more time if I need to order something off the internet.

08silveRADoman sorry my career path doesn’t stand up to your approval. After serving in Iraq as a medic and experiencing the way it feels to TRUELY help someone else in need I thought it might be nice to do it for a living. So what is it that you do that contributes so greatly to this country let a lone your community, just curious since you want to pass judgement?

I work at sears auto center in colonie and have friends at other shops, problem is the cop wants me to contact him within 7 days for him to personally drop the ticket. He didn’t even give me anything to take to a shop. I know what you’re talking about, I’ve had to do it for people at work before.

Thanks, I actually volunteered to go with a medical unit out of Glens Falls and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. As you can tell it has helped me to find a direction in life that I will be happy with and pay the bills, lol. I was interested in social work before I went to Iraq. After all the shit I did when I was younger people are surprised at the direction I’m headed now.

Hey good luck with the medic training.

On your problem, just get a generic silencer in the diameter of the outlet on the muff. Probaly your quickest and cheapest fix.

+infinity

and i think a great route for any car is stock exhaust+cutout, temporarily could you mock up a stock catback or will it not bolt up to your downpipe?

Take a peice of sheetmetal, put a 1" hole in it, and bolt it between any 2 flanges in the exhaust.

when i had my 89 and 91 rx7’s, I used a generic silencer to quiet it down when i wanted. It worked quite well. I had the borla on my 89 TII and i think it was the N1 on my 91. Get the silencer and you should be fine.

My uncle had a thoroughbred farm. Had to do 3-400 bails once or twice a month. Load onto trailer, off trailer, into barn, then into loft.

Before he had one of those hay conveyor belt/escalator jammies it was hell.

I’d recommend the Apexi World Sport…if they make the N1 for your car they make the WS model. Baffled muffler, still makes good power, and purrs like a kitten. I had this on my supercharged Maxima and loved it.
