$120 for the cat and center muffler section

$40 for the tail pipe section (no rear muffler)
PART # T5713

a 'c' clamp and freight and your going to be getting a cheap exhaust system, waiting on delivery which hopefully will be by next week

The centre section doesn't come with a cat. It bolts on behind the cat.

**jazza15** · 19-11-2009, 12:37 PM

So $160 for centre muffler and straight through pipe to the end?
Where do you get this 'c' clamp you speak of?

**Not_An_Abba_Fan** · 19-11-2009, 12:58 PM

The 'c' clamp is the clamp that holds the tail pipe to the centre muffler.

**stevoss** · 19-11-2009, 10:09 PM

opps my bad i typed it wrong, its cat back lol

**stevoss** · 22-11-2009, 07:28 PM

arrived friday and i must say really looks the part, hopefully will be on a hoist otherwise its the garage floor at the mechanics for me tommorrow

and i already had a look, its all of 4 rubber mounts on the hangers and 2 bolts on the cat flange that need to be touched other than that its all going to bolt on no probs

for anybody else doing it the workshop manual says to soap up the mounts so they slide on easy.

**stevoss** · 23-11-2009, 10:20 PM

yeppers had it on a hoist today for the total of 20mins

pics are below

Sound was completely unexpected, grumbly on idle and fairly deep on take off but cruise about 2000rpm and its exaclty as quiet as stock,

awsome and better than i could have asked for

**stevoss** · 23-11-2009, 10:22 PM

so grand total price for me was $20 for use of hoist $3 for 2.5" c clamp (from exhaust joint) $16 for chrome tip + exhaust

very happy also will get vid up tommorrow as i had to work and dont have one at day time

17mm bolt at the cat
13mm bolts at the c clamp
a screw driver to unclip the 4 clips that hold on the rubber mounts, and it just works

**dark_realm** · 24-11-2009, 03:43 AM

can't wait for the video!

**stevoss** · 06-12-2009, 04:35 PM

here it is sorry i think the quality of the vid is shite but what can you do i spose, but its awsome

really happy

**carra909** · 06-12-2009, 10:41 PM

hey thanks for telling me about this, i went out n bought the parts, put it on on friday night
havent stoped driving her around all weekend.

i got mine from auto one and only payed $158 for it including a c clamp

im not to sure but am i ment to put any sealant between the two joints because it was leaking alot of condensation through the connection. ill have to put it back on the ramp to see if i have it connected in fully

**fatboy15** · 07-12-2009, 03:12 AM

**stevoss** · 27-12-2009, 11:49 PM

LOL. I have but I don't get replies. Didn't realise the thread did hahaha

**2DIE** · 21-12-2010, 04:29 PM

Just get a hotdog muffler instead of a resi unless its for roadworthy reasons or its too loud. They quieten down a little and get rid of raspy and crackely sounds.

**Mirkz** · 21-12-2010, 06:46 PM

nathanVS, I've also tried to send him a pm about a full system but am yet to hear back

I want it quieter, it doesn't drone much but when it does it's bloody loud. got an amazing sound at the moment though.
