Budget Exhaust build !

[ALXinNZ]

I have all but completed my dream car and with the recession costing my job and the house rennovations taking up the free cash ( faster than any car build!!) I needed to come up with a cheap exhaust that was going to be tidy and cool.

So when my mate shelled out for a new system for his 993 I struck a deal and for $300 nzd i completed the following.....

What do you think?????
Cut heater boxes off then turned flanges 90degrees to fit the 3.2 right side only.


Cut the catalyc converters out and ends off.


Fab inserts to replace original inserts

Pack with firberglass in fit into existing housing

Tack in position, remove and finish weld

Modify o2 sensor to reach the mount on 993 system

After painting and fitting. I think I deserve a beer

Very nice........I found packing with steel wool lasts much longer than fiberglass...

Oh Crap....... Too late now. I did use recommended packing though not the cheap stuff so hopefully it will be ok..... It might sound really bad too so might get tossed out yet!!

Thanks for the information though I will use it in the future

OK, LQQKs great! How does it sound?
Just to clarify, this went onto what motor?

They are on a 3.2 ( Should work on most engines) . And I am not at the point of starting yet, still got a few wee things to finish... I really hope it sounds ok though.
