Yay more boost... hack job inside
WTF? You might say...
lol, yeah, that was my new exhaust hanger. I made a couple of them.
I hacked it off and replaced it with a 7' piece of flex pipe. Sounds very lopey at idle, couldn't hear much over my tires at speed, but I picked up about 2psi up top.
After using a porta-band (battery powered band saw) to cut off the muff, I wiggled and tugged, and wiggled somemore... then I sprayed everything with WD-40... then I wiggled and tugged... and then finally got the muffler/tailpipe off. 2 3.5" exhaust clamps, 6 sheet metal screws and 1 large coffee can later... I have no muffler and a really awful looking exhaust. I'll get better pics in the daylight.
I lost my auction on e-bay... but I've been offered a second chance!! I'm hoping this welfare looking exhaust will convince the wife that a little magnaflow would do me good
BTW - I floored it on the way back to the house on the testdrive and my SES light came on and stayed on while I was WOT. Once I got off the pedal it went away. It has flashed a couple times since I've owned the truck... but only a couple. What could that be from?
