    Blew My Exhaust

    Well went to go test drive my car today and the screw that held the muffler on the bracket snapped and my muffler fell bending the tailpipe right were it connect to the muffler and broke off. If it's not weldable i am then going to either put Dual Exhaust on it with flowmaster super 40 mufflers or just buy one flowmaster super 40 muffler and attach that to my single exhaust.

      The sawzall partially through it two days ago had nothing to do with it right? :p jk mang
      Even stock duals are an improvement vs the single exhaust. If you can afford it, go for it.

        A flowmaster isnt going to hook directly up to your stock system as the smallest they come is 2.25 inch in/out and your pipe is 2 inch. You can make it work however with reducers...thats how I got my Summit race muffler on my 87.

          well the muffler was replaced before and the the people who put it on used the original screw onto it. It originally had four screws to hold the muffler onto the bracket but the guy only put one on the bracket so one side of the bracket was holding nothing. After all the bumps i have to go over to get to school the rusty bolt just snapped.
