enkeiandmore Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 i did this early this morning like around 4 am and it is amazingly loud on my car. is it due to me removing 1 cat and having another high flow cat and different mufflers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enkeiandmore Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 nah but it actually might be too loud and have to go back to no washers again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMac1203 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 How many did you do? Try just 1 washer. Or then you could try 1 on only 1 of the bolts (instead of 1 on each). Need a CarPC bezel? PM me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bms231 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 hmm.... u almost have me wanting to do this to my 08. how long have people been running w/ this? no troubles? dealers flip out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMac1203 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 People have been running with them since atleast about 14 months ago (when Hog created this thread?) This causes no problems, it physically can't, it's located after everything on the exhaust system that matters. Dealers are tricky, some will take them out (because it's technically an exhaust leak), and some will let them be. It in no way voids your warranty or anything of that nature though. DO IT! Need a CarPC bezel? PM me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bms231 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 ^^ yea i heard that before. i had hyundai void my warranty b/c they said my intake caused the car's brake failure. yea. i have heard it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must be directly connected to the part. Can't remember if this law is new or old. For some reason I seem to remember it being a newer thing (within the last 10 years?), but who knows. Also, I don't believe that they can cross-reference something like that. I mean, theoretically if I have a GT35R turbo setup in my car and my brakes go bad, sure. Obviously I had too much GO, and not enough STOP. Then SOA might be able to void my brake warranty. But in terms of a few washers, the worst thing they'll do is not warranty the mufflers and/or y-pipe if they rust prematurely hah. Even then, they'd have to prove that that was due to you spacing the pipes with washers. Don't worry about it. If you have to take the car in and you're worried, just remove the washers. Takes 10 mins and frees your mind of worry. Need a CarPC bezel? PM me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmeat Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 DO IT! No problems for 18 months here. I'm Stage 2 and catless too. 50,000+ views can't be wrong! OK OK, that has nothing to do wtih anything...but you get the idea. no one has ever reported anyting bad, other than too loud for them. I'm pleasantly surprised... It was most certainly worth the couple bucks and 10 mins of my time. CLICK HERE FOR THE HOGZAUST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, mine's pretty loud, but I'm used to it now and saddened.  If I do go about adding additional washers (which I probably will), anyone have the bolt size? I'm looking to replace with stainless this time (meant to last time I added a washer, but didn't have the time). Need a CarPC bezel? PM me!

I'm looking to replace with stainless this time (meant to last time I added a washer, but didn't have the time). 3/8" washers work. (3/8" diam bolts) i've had stainless on there for about 2 months now and they still look shiny. It's not about speed, it's about acceleration!

bms231 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. 2302) (Federal Law) Subsection © deals with aftermarket parts   ooooo trust me i was well versed in this. that law means nothing. tell a dealer that and they dont care about it. you actually have to have money to prosecute them and they still have the right to deny you service which is normally the case. it is total B.S.  SOA just told me that by that dealer putting Krex in my engine, if they were to link it to engine failure that b/c of the actions of the subaru dealer my engine warranty would be void. aight that nice.

BMac1203 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Wow. So SOA could void your warranty because of malpractice of a dealer's service? Isn't there some sort of system of checks and balances? I'm not quite sure how a dealer's actions are held accountable under you... Sounds like you should get a great warranty and service tech should be fired, not the other way around...But hey, I think in reality, I don't live in it.

Canon20D Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 well SOA assumes you know what the dealer is going to do BEFORE they do it and therefore would have allowed them to put it in your engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
