The only reason I took them off was because I had installed a set of modded 3.6 mufflers.

Coverage and how to read this overview
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.

Hey Guys,
I have an annoying rattle in my drivers side muffler. I took it off the car and flipped/shook it around a few times and there is a piece clearly loose in there...
You think I should operate on it and some how fix it... after tig/mig it with stainless steel?
Or should I just replace it?
I need some opinions...
Thanks
some people have just sliced them open and tacked the loose parts back on... weld er' back shut...
That said you have to have some welding skill for that. There are 3.4 cans that come up all the time for cheap and even 3.6 that do too... the other option is a Fister D replacement... they have a 1000 votes as "best value/sound for the money"
he uses OEM cans for his mods
see if I can find some pics for you
Thanks man!
are those the same ones i'm running stock? if I recall correctly when i took it down, had a name like Aisman or Eisman? I should've paid more attention to the name...
But regardless.... I'm going to a indy that I know tomorrow and i'll attempt this with my mec!
Here is a pic of the left muffler....
Tomorrow it's due for open heart surgery
If that doesn't really work, I will probably need to find the same one somewhere...
That's right. They are free for pickup, of just pay shipping. They do have some seam splitting, but no exhaust leaks and no rattleing. The only reason I took them off was because I had installed a set of modded 3.6 mufflers.
Fergus, I did have them for sale, until I realized that they did have some seam splitting. Then decided I would rather give them away, rather than have somebody complain that I had misrepresented them.
Just operated on on the muffler and everything is ok now
There was a loose pillar type thing that was free. I just took it out and reinforced the other one since it was looking like it had it's days...
Also did a Oil change! Man, this car is truly amazing! I'm not going to lie, I had the best time with it last night lol
After the muffler fix, I think I cruised All of Ottawa 50 times.
Yup! Exact same procedure!
Man, I was cruising and driving till 3 am and I had work today at 9am.
I literally couldn't stop driving!! this car is incredible!
My lisence plate frame for the rear in chrome came in today and my clears are going to arrive any minute!! Now I just need the chrome bulbs, tires and alignment, then pedals... then mats, then....
No I never been. I know it is available about an hour away.
I don't really want to track the car for some reason. I know it would be extremely fun, and I think I would get to addicted! I want to keep it mint with spirited drives here and there and save $$ in a sense...
Later on I might though!
before DE's i thought it would be "hard on the car" and as long as you dont go overboard... its NOT... just eats up a little bit of tire and thats really about all... well worth the $ and really wont harm the car IMO...try and go to an event for a "look"... you will really want to get out there. Its like driving very spritiedly, for a longer stretch with no worries of a ticket
The way you worded that post actually makes me want to get out there!
But I will def take a look and see for myself what's available. I know it would be a hell of a good time...
But This car really got to me! I actually appreciate it so much! And knowing that I have parts on order and next mod ideas just excites me even more. More so then my previous car that's for sure.
Can't wait to finish work and get in her!!
Hey Ed don't get the poor guy into trouble to soon, he just got here
Listening to you reflects how most of us feel about our rides (I think).
Just be warned once you get hooked on customizing there really is no stopping...it's like a drug
I started with a clear markers just like you... now look at it, soon you'll be like one of those guys that keeps looking back at their car as they walk away...sloooooowly
Or worse be like me... I walk backwards!
Congrats on your P.!
Cheers,
Sid.
