so as you guys know i got my exhaust on today and it looks and sounds rad as fuck but there are a few things i just dont get. one it costed me 100, the gaskets didnt fit and the guys who put the new ones on i dont think bent the hangers so i hope its fine otherwise ill have to bend them myself (i havent seen it in person yet just a phone vid) but i will have pics up tonight and video tomorrow

i dont think the cops followed you for ur muffler then cause the muffler isnt loud at all without the resonator removed.

Chrisr414, what city do you live in? When I was a teenager and had my riced out cars the cops would bother me and give me 10day fix-it-ticket all the time, but now I drive cars that aren't p.o.s. and I don't get bothered!

During the summer I was driving my mr2 around a lot since I just got it running again and I have 0 of the 2 oem cats and I removed the resonator, and my exhaust is 3" that widens to 3.25" before the muffler, comes out of the muffler 4" and widens to 5" at the tip; anyway, the muffler vibrates everything and I was driving with my friend in his VW rabbit with 1.8T and the exhaust fell off before the car just after the turbo and my exhaust drownded his out...and I never have been pulled over in the mr2 for my exhaus(knock on wood) and the car stands out even without the exhaust!!

I live in oconomowoc btw

ive been looking at this, not bad, not too loud or ricey
That's my car. I got my free because they use my car as prototype. I have no issue with it at all (after almost a year). Sounds good. The sound clip at youtube is w/o mid-muffler, w/ Compect header, and AEM V2. I put my mid-muffler back on 2 wks later because it's a bit loud for me. Sounds perfect now.

Bend the hangers to sit more even.

I used the box end of a wrench, if you have a pipe small enough that might work also; possibly the handle of a hydraulic jack.
