Re:is the flexpipe necessary?
----, my setup is top notch sucka. This is the first setup I've ever had that I started with no open downpipe. I have a full exhaust with a muffler and everything. :)

Re:is the flexpipe necessary?
im confused??. there is this kid in my area with an eclipse and i dont know his set up is weird i cant figure out if its a greddy kit or what cause the intercooler says greddy but he prob just bought a greddy intercooler but anyway. he did some custom ---- and he has like and acutal muffler sticking out of his front bumper then he has the regular exhaust. what the hell is the one in the front from. whatever it is it sounds like crap. worse than a ------ ups truck.

Re:is the flexpipe necessary?
ok thanks whitey. cause i can always hear that POS driving around. i like the sound of my rex with a short ram and header with no exhaust better and even that sounds bad. maybe its just the way he did it. it really does sound like he's driving a truck.

Re:is the flexpipe necessary?
hooking up a vacuum to your breather is also benificial ;).
I didn't have a flex pipe, I drove about 1500 miles with no flex pipe, no problems there. My new downpipe is not gona have a flex pipe either. O ----, i just realized as I was typing the last sentence that thats probly the reason why I kept blowing DP gaskets. Ok never mind, run a flex pipe. ;D |

Are you saying that jokingly or are you serious? Cause you know that is true, it frees up horsepower. |
