I just wanted to know where I could get some exhaust tips to replace the oem tips and what would you guys recommend.I think these are fairly easy to install right?

 

Any muffler shop or automotive supply store should have some tips...just visit one.

I think some CL members mentioned in a previous post that they had some at Midas.

 

I picked up a pair of these, just havent had time to install... Im pretty sure I got the right size:

magnaflow 4" diameter, 4.5" length, 2.25 inlet. You can get them in 3.5" diameter as well...

 

where did you get those?^

 

i got them from an online store...Performance Peddler to be exact. I just went to magnaflow's website and picked an online dealer.

 

there are plenty of after-market tips available, such as Borla, Magnaflow. The problem lies in the car's exhaust pipe itself, which has protrusions on the inner pipe, after you remove the outer finish. These protrusions will hinder the installation of the new tip. Installation requires cutting the old pipe off and soldering the new tip to the muffler itself.

 

i found this out at the time of installation

I knew the tips needed to be welded; but I was hoping for a straight 2.25 outlet that could be cut down to about an inch. I ended up cutting the outlet on the tapered section and used 3 stainless rivits--instead of welding--to secure the tips in place. It's solid. I think it came out quite well and it only cost me $54 in the end

Its dirty, but here it is:

i like the look, i like them better than the OEM tips. I bet thoughs tips gave you at least 7hp! hehe

 

looks good but i don't think it will be worth the hassle for me.

 

I can vouch, First time I got to see these tips in person I thought they were Tanabe Tips. Silly Me

 

Save your money and get exhaust!

 

^^^ Agree!

 

I want to chrome my exhaust tip but I dont' know how to take it out

 

Where in FL are you?

Prospect Muffler, in Okland Park, does excellent work at a very reasonable price.

Did changing the tips change the sound, i really dont want to get an exhaust because i dont want ANY exhaust noise while cruising on long trips.
