rice_rocket Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Well I suppose so.. just not so reversable.. JB weld on exhaust piping never works.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
instantfury Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 something similar, epoxy or whatnot. sucks though cause i bought a dremel just for this. eh oh well everyone needs one right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmeat Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 OK, don't panic! Either: 1. Buy and jack and cut the nut off once you have the proper angle $20. 2. Buy a nut splittler, this will basically "crack" the nut in half, and you can pull the bolt out. $20. Either way, you win. Every man needs a jack. Every man also needs a nut splitter. In my case though, I'm married. Seriously, don't cut into your pipes. I think it would be a bad idea... 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...
fishbone Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I cut through one damn stubborn bolt without jacking the car up. I slid under it and cut that sucker right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
instantfury Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 (edited) then you are a better man than i fishbone. lol i have half of it off but the nut is stripped. nut splitter here i come! did you use a dremel? i have the reinfored cutting disks. is there a better disk?

fishbone Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Not a dremel. My situation was a bit different though. I was able to open up the bolt about an inch before it completely seized and I rounded it. So what I did was I spaced out the muffler from the Y pipe as much as I could, stuck the cutting disk in there and turned it on. 10 secunds and the bolt was cut in half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
instantfury Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 nice, wish i had such luck. hopefully today ill be able to procure a jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maniaxzero Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Thanks hogmeat! Sounds awesome! more quiet than I thought! Finally finished it today...tried PB blaster and electric impact gun nothing worked, too rusted... So i brought it to a shop today and got it done for $20. They had to torch all the bolts and nuts. Two nuts were stuck so they had to cut those off.  BTW, did anyone extend the stock muffler tips? Is there a write-up for it? I hate how the tips are so tucked in. I'm either going to extend the tips or get new bigger oval tips so it fits the gap better.  I'd always been a fan of AMG exhaust tips fitment http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/2066/ag07e63leftrear.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabotaged Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Got my first random compliment tonight.. I stepped on it until about 5k rpm in first to maneuver around and through a yellow light in thick traffic and then let just coast down. Some random guy in a Cavalier goes HEY! HEY! Hey man, nice car. the power of hog-zawst! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmeat Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 There will be more to follow! I remember I just coasted down to a stop at some stoplight, and I must have made some crappy ZX2 Ford Focus jealous. Started racing it's crappy litttle hamster wheel, and then followed me. Wanted a race. I promptly embarassed them. LOL. I'm pleasantly surprised... It was most certainly worth the couple bucks and 10 mins of my time.

zombie-jesus Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Just did the hogzaust mod at the recommendation of the salesman who sold me the car. I dig it, not too loud but plenty of rumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishbone Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 My hogzhaust will be coming off sometime soon. It is becoming less and less wife-approved as time goes by. I am also not enjoying the black color that the underbody is starting to take on. Having only one cat left in the stock exhaust, you ca bet my tips started getting darker and darker. I guess it's time to invest in a pair of real aftermarket mufflers, if not for sound then for performance. The stockers just plain scare me when I consider the fact that they are not a straight-pipe, but compartmentalized instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogmeat Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 A little soot won't hurt anything. I don't know why you have alot. I'd check your tune. I ran Stage 2 for a long time, with NO CATS, and little to no soot. I'm pleasantly surprised... It was most certainly worth the couple bucks and 10 mins of my time.
