GIlegacy Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I did it tonight. I used 3 washers just the cheap .99 SS ones from walmart. The sound is interesting. definatly not the same as the bosal on the wrx but pretty good. I might bring it down to 2 washers on each side and see how i like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I for one say it is officialy called the "HOG-MOD" how does that sound to everyone? Definitely sounds better than calling it the 'MEAT_MOD!! I'm intrigued; I might have to give this a try myself... Seek first to understand, then to be understood. In other words: SEARCH before you post!

gfxdave99 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Well i dont feel bad about buying chappy's exhaust now at least If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough. - Mario Andretti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zildjiank Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 So I figured I'd give this thing a try, however funny it may be (seems to me that we are usually trying to get rid of exhaust leaks...not make them!!!) Bought the washers, and started putting them on, when I dropped one, or maybe two in the exhaust pipe! I managed to get one of them out, but I'm still not sure whether I dropped one or two, cause I swear it was only one, and I fished around forever in the pipe to find the second...hmm... Well aside from my stupidity, I got it done, and it sounds okay...definitely more noticable, but not as loud as an aftermarket exhaust... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIlegacy Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 lol i dropped a few into the pipe.. i just started the car and pressed the gas until they blew out. if you hit it with a wrench and hear a jingle its still in there=very bad ju ju Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostjunkie Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I'm probably cheaper than the next guy, but I cannot believe that people are falling all over themselves about how great AN EXHAUST LEAK SOUNDS! If you look up ricer in the dictionary, intentional exhaust leaks have to be right up there with cut springs and 3 foot tall aluminum wings...

dtmenace Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 ...If you look up ricer in the dictionary, intentional exhaust leaks have to be right up there with cut springs and 3 foot tall aluminum wings... please stay tuned for the "menace wing mod", available in one size fits all ...adjustable from 3-6 ft, and comes in all LGT factory colors!

SubiGT Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Bump for "menace wing mod"!!!! Back on thread, just spent 6.3 min under my wagon for the HOG-MOD. I like it. I'm gonna ditch the resonator next.

If you look up ricer in the dictionary, intentional exhaust leaks have to be right up there with cut springs and 3 foot tall aluminum wings... i don't think people are falling over themselves with this. it's just cheap, fast, tunable and easily reversible. if asked, i'm going to say it's a gohan racing exhaust. i've also come up with a formula to help determine how many washers to use: 50/your age=# washers. here's mine, 50/42=1.19, this is probably where i'll end up (currently at 2) btw, i like rice (the food product). sansei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIlegacy Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 the factory midpipe doesnt look too restrictive... its the ypipe and small arse dual pipes comming off that look restrictive. Im sure this little "leak" helps a bit and it does sound great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccorry Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Ah... .who knows what "the most restrictive thing is". Everybody just speculates on that. I have had the Hog-mod for almost a week now... with a 2 washer installation. I like it... but when I get some time I might try dropping it to 1 washer... just to see what it sounds like.

TSiWRX Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 ^ Hey, I resemble that remark! My Blitz Nur-Spec Touring fart-cans actually have 4 and 1/4 inch tips, so take that, DK! All kidding aside, I agree, all we have to do to have a "performance exhaust" is just run an open DP. Besides, with just about any exhaust leak short of something pre-turbo (and even some, in that case), we still get plenty of "boxer rumble." Ah... .who knows what "the most restrictive thing is". Everybody just speculates on that. +1 And everyone and their cousin has the data to back up their claim of what changes net the most gain.

PGT Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 OMG! Finally caught up with this thread. I jokingly suggested this idea to some Mid-A people a year ago and they all gave me crap over it. I've had two aftermarket exhausts on my car and both were too loud. This mod is probably perfect for most drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
