Go to the parts store and get a stock replacement muffler and tailpipe.

Cheap, not great for performance, and quiet. Mileage won't be much different.

Do NOT for any reason get a stock muffler....Stock tail and a stock y-pipe aren't too expensive, but at least geta better muffler....The stock replacements go down to like 1" on the inside...Just replacing the muffler, you will notice a huge difference in performance....

upgrading to a stock H-pipe and stock duals with a decent muffler won't cost too much.

I just checked the price of a stock replacement muffler at Advance, and they want $75 for it. That said, go with what mrltd said about the muffler. Super Turbos are pretty quiet and cheap.

Even a 2 chamber flowmaster will be very quiet on an otherwise stock exhaust...

example 1st gear the whole time...Stock single exhaust with a 2.25" flowmaster 2 chamber...

Even quieter than that is a Flowmaster Delta 50. they are a lot quieter than a 40. Im gonna replace my 40's with some 50's

Now thats preety dern queit... What about cat's Suposedley they cant take them compley off any more, so i might have to get some sort of new cat's Any recomendation for this? 2 chamber flow master muffler And a tail pipe so far :-D

[mrltd]

Never could take cats off....Big no-no from the EPA...the 4 can be replaced with 2 though.

[DarkKnight]

I only got two, and both are cloged... we dont have emmisions test here... I just dont know squat about Exhaust.. :-/ And dont they usualy run like 100$ a pice?

[mrltd]

Nope, more like 45 bucks

[DarkKnight]

! thats not bad, so two cat's a two chamber flow muffler and a tail pipe for now ;-P Any one got a around price range? So when i go to have it done ill know if im getting screwed? And yea i know they all say " Depends on what needs to be done so i cant give yea a ball park figure" But when funds get limited so does work.. :-/

[mrltd]

y pipe is 27 bucks, tails are 28 bucks...Stock H is 85 bucks.... all from advance auto (partsamerica)

[DarkKnight]

I got the y pipe still so with the cat's and the tail pipe it's about 118 maybey at the shope 130 or so? Humm verry interesting. Thanks mang. :-D

You should spend a bit more and go for the stock h-pipe. My old Vic had the stock exhaust, complete with 4 cats, y-pipe, and stock muffler, and it sucked horendously. It sounded like a weak V6 and was very restricting. Go with 2 summit cats(they're cheap), stock h-pipe, and 2" summit turbos are $35 each(the 2.5" turbos are $15). Going with a dual exhaust will help you gain more power and better fuel economy. Win-Win.

Humm, if i would do it my self with this stuff, do i have to know how to weld. and how can i take my cat's off?
