exhaust
 

i want to put an exhaust sys on my new neon but i hear strait pipes are bad for valves and illeagle. now if i get rid of my cat (or hollow it out) and just put in a muffler, it shold sound leagle and be illeagle?? and what are my chances of getting caught?? cuz i relly dont want to pay 600 or so for a cat back system but if i go with the hollow out of the cat and put in a good muffler do i need to tune crap?? or anything or just bold on the new stuff?

Re:exhaust
 

different exhaust system on a stock car=5hp or less.......why not start learning about i dont know....turboing your car and get an exhaust to match the turbo setup you pick instead of worrying about beating the stock 4 door civic that happens to be driving next to you on the freeway.

RANT:YOU ------- JESUS FREAK YOU ARE NOT WELCOMED ON MY EARTH. GO TAKE YOUR JESUS LOVING RHETORIC SOMEWHERE ELSE. WE DONT NEED FUCKERS ON SITES ABOUT CARS SHOWING THEIR LOVE FOR JESUS. BY THE WAY, GOD HATES YOU AND WISH YOU WOULD JUST DIE. ---- YOU, YOU PIECE OF ---- MURDERER.

incase you couldnt tell, i hate religious people more than i hate anyone else in the world.

Re:exhaust
 

Back on topic, what is your main goal with this car? Do you want to run a 12 second 1/4 or do you just want a daily driver with some pep? Or are you a ricer and you just want something that makes your car sound like it has power? Either way I think an exhaust will only gain you 2-3hp on a stock vehicle. My advice would be to save up for some turbo components and boost that bitch.

Re:exhaust
 

basicaly i want a car that i just drive and is "cool" to some peoples standards and if some one at a light wants to race i will not embarrise my self too much and sound cool, and im woried that if i buy a muffler that on the HW it will have a ennoying low humming loud sound, i think i will go with a CAI and no turbo, well maybe way down the road but this car is new and has some good warinties and i wont want to ruen them for now, but maybe if i have the car in like 10 years or so i could go turbo but by then i guess i will have another car, but i want a exhaust system and im not sure how to do that and i dont cant to get one that makes loud noises at HW speeds and i will go with the CAI and i hurd about this pully thing that gives less power to the a/c and some stuff so that more power goes to the wheels, i dont know if this really helps or if things will ware down fast, need the info please

Re:exhaust
 

bigwig stfu and keep it to yourself. been warned.

too your question, cai will make your car sound "cooler" without voiding warrenty. pretty much any "performance" muffler you put on your car will make it loud. it wont make a dif from your stock exahust. it'll just be loud.

Re:exhaust
 

BigWig just STFU. No one cares about your religious beliefs. ------- douche. >:(

Re:exhaust
 

Hey being a douche isnt that bad. I think big wig doesnt like religious people because some religions dont condone homosexual behavior Big wig is obviosly homosexual hence the rainbow flag.

<<<<<<<<Big Wig and his boyfriend playing catch

Re:exhaust
 

All he had was a avatar with a cross, what's the big wig-out for? the avatar is just a little place to have something connected with you to show. He didn't go preaching anything.

Just back off you ------- fag.

Re:exhaust
 

bigwig, you just got yourself a new avatar >:(

1 warning.. do not blow off a new user like this, or your going to be blown off

Re:exhaust
 

no, jesus died so that we (believers) can get into heaven when we die, not people like bigwig, they get stuck in hell driving honda sedans with black steelies, 3 ft. wings, and fart can exhaust

Re:exhaust
 

Ah this "HMT" and not "Honda Tech" right?



Anyways if you're not going to turbo your neon and you just want some sound then just install a muffler. By the sounds of your needs it wouldn't be worth all that money for a full exhaust to get you that extra 1 or 2 horsepower over just a muffler on a NA car.

An NA car with a full exhaust may sound cool at first and for driving around town but if you do any amount of extended highway driving then make sure you keep some ear plugs in your car!

I had a full exhaust on my 93 coupe but I was also turbo so it wasn't real loud, but a while back I removed the turbo from my civic and now it's loud as ----! I made a couple road trips 2 hours each way and let me tell you it gets annoying real quick, especially when you're trying to talk to other people in the car...."what?"..."what was that?"..."what?" was most of the conversation.

I'm looking into an exhaust for my MR2 but I want it for the HP gains not the sound, I like the stealthness of a quiet exhaust on a turbo car. But the Blitz Nur Spec exhaust for the MR2 has dynoed a gain of 18hp and 16ft lbs of tourqe.

Well I hope this helps you out a bit and good luck with your Neon. Welcome to the board!

Re:exhaust
 

get a 2.5 stair muffler and a 2.5 resonator to replace your cat and keep it quiet, then goto your local exhaust shop and find the youngest guy there to do it, he'll keep the costs down for you... Most exhaust places will weld up some pipes for like 80-90 bucks if you bring the mufflers in, and you can get whatever muffler you want from ebay, with a in/out oval muffler because the strait through ones sound like ass and half the time they don't fit right=more money to install.

After that go back to ebay and pick up a cheap cai and throw in some 93 octane gas, then advance the timing some(i doin't know how to do this on those cars). You could feasably get about 10 hp somewhere in the powerband.
it'll probably cost you just under 200 bucks when all is said and done.

p.s. it's always good to have a firned that can weld.

Re:exhaust
 

Just my opinion, but I'd go with a home made turbo set up. Can't beat the sound of that BOV ;D

Re:exhaust
 

---- guys im wthin driving distancde of bigfag and would love to rage on him and then calm down with a nice bang out session with his sister.......yeah, to each his own...get the muffler but it will sound ratty with a hollowed out cat.

Re:exhaust
 

i could be wrong but the neon has a mandrel bent 2" on it stock with is good enuf for any bolt on mods you plan on doing soon. so it see it as not worth your time just get a nice muffler that will free up your flow enuf to make a noticeable difference. add intake adn you should be happy for the time being.
