Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hello Fellas,
Today I received a set of 3.6 mufflers in the mail and I soon figured out that the C4S tips that were included do not fit on my C2. The exhaust pipe that is attached to the chrome tip is too long. Does anyone have a set of exhaust tips or maybe just the exhaust pipe that connects to the tip from the muffler (only if it will fit the C4S tear drops). I will trade the C4S tips for C2 sport tips or duals as well. Thanks again.
Ryan
I dont have the stocker tips from the 3.4's. I sold them with my old fabspeed exhaust.. I wonder if a muffler shop could fab up a pipe so I can fit the C4S tips on... I really like the look of them.
I just went to a muffler shop and they did not want to attempt to fab up a pipe for the C4S tips.. plus they could not flare the tubing to mate with the muffler correctly. I may just run it without tips until some surface and just get the PSE Hack done in the mean time... if I can find someone that has mandrel bent piping..
I bought a 2.25" "J-bend" tube from
JGES
for $24 plus shipping and had it shipped to my shop. For some reason, the J-bend was cheaper than the U-bend. Since I was cutting it anyway, it didn't matter. One J bend is enough for 2 mufflers.
Read all about it in post #520 and post #579 of this

Hey Ryan, let me know if you are interested in our Dual style tips for your car and I will make you a nice member deal on them. The black chrome would really look great on your black car and give it a more aggressive stance. PM me if you are interested or have any questions.
Thanks,
??The C4 tips have a longer pipe.?? Find a shop that will cut the pipe mount the flared end and trim what is not needed then weld the shortened pipe with the tip back onto it.
I wish I had confidence in the shops around here. Most places either do a hack job or break stuff along the way. I like to keep it simple for them. I'm the guy that looks over your shoulder since is my porsche they are using blow torches and grinders around. They are used to working on chevys and fords. I've had numerous bad experiences in the past.
Plus why would I want to ruin a perfect set of c4s pipes?
sorry for slow reply:
I would not monkey F%$ with that pipe...find a set of tip that fit your car...any MKI tips should fit, there are lots of them out there for not much money....

I didnt rerad that full ad, but those "look right"
the C4S tips should be worth more, check the F.S. forums
you need to drive up with your bright green JD hat on and some suspenders...tell em its your bosses car and "HE's" picky...
I seriously cannot believe how many people say the muffler shop wont bend and weld in a piece of pipe..wtf do these shops do????
I also had a shop say they "couldnt do it" or say it was $$$$$ because it was "custom" **** its a pipe...you weld one end and you weld the other end...DONE!!
HAHA. I agree. How hard can cutting and welding pipe be?? I know I could do it if I had the equipment. Today I actually found a exhaust specialty shop in Omaha. He was a "yes man" and assured me the PSE Hack would come out great (stainless steel and mandrel bends). I gave him the diagram from the forums so he can't really jack this one up. We will see. I should be getting a call anytime to come pick them up.
I may ask him about fitting the C4S tips on (if he does a good job on the mufflers).
Hi Ryan,
The silver car is not mine (it has a tubi exhaust). I'm running fabspeed maxflo mufflers with stock tips (installed by previous owner). Some day, I'd like to have a full Manthey system.
Well I got my mufflers back from the shop and they are all hacked up... the guy welded a 2.5 inch pipe instead of the 2.25 that I requested and it was complete slop. I wish I could just do everything myself since I hate paying for half *** work. The sound is decent, not too loud or too quiet. I wish it was a tad louder but what can ya do.....
bigger is better! Sloppy? Oh well. They will get louder in time and they are louder outside then inside. Find a covered garage or tunnel, they are louder than you think. should be pretty nice!
