Default RE: Installing new exhaust

the hack saw was a joke everone but for real go to the store and pick up a $4 bottle&tourch it comes in one package can get it just about any store that has automotive department. I have used this on exhaust before and it works for the fact that the nut will exspand larger than the bolt because it gets hoter.

I may or may not do it on my own.. I really haven't decided... Is it hard to menuver the muffler and pipe over the rear axle when the car is only lifted up a foot or so? I mean, say I do get the nuts off the cat converter, buy a new gasket for that connection, undo the 3 nuts from the muffle pipe and the .. I guess its a center or mid pipe??... and remove the stock from the hangers... I still have to do some funky squeezing to get the new one up and over the rear axle.. just not sure how much room I need...

And what am I suppose to do if I break a stud or something at the cat?? This is my every day car.. I can't **** something up on it and have no vehicle.

If you break something on the cat... **** it drive it w/o the exhaust a day or 2 won't hurt anything in the long run. And I dunno how much of a lift you need to get the exhaust on but it shouldn't be THAT hard...

than you go to autozone, napa,chker and buy a new one for like 20-40 i beleve they are.

I got one my cuz has a kia yes i said kia. anyways his muffler got tore off about 1 1/2 years ago and his car sounded very good no backfire i mean it sounded deep not like a tin can. so we left it alone and he had a littl pipe we welded on to face the exhaust down so we come pulling out of sonic in his car and all of the sudden it is loud as **** imean LOUD! we pull over and he hit the j pipe we pointed down and riped off the rest of the exhaust so now he has cat 10-12" of pipe and that is it man ill tell you that car is so loud it will give you a headache just riding in it. Oh when people pull up to him and ask home what he did to his car we tell them he has no-tech exhaust. LMAO
