If you have front and rear solid mounts with Protane motor and tranny mounts

[bmoha2]

Do you still need a downpipe with a flex section?

 

[HIGHPSI4]

Yes.

 

[slowgsr]

I don't use one.

 

[kmoore]

Yeah... I would think. Why wouldn't you? It's not that big of a deal.

 

[bmoha2]

SS downpipe to rust is the flex section. I spent a lot of money on a Buschur racing SS downpipe and I am kinda pissed it's rusted. Only on the flex section but it's still rusted. I think next time I will make my own 3 inch downpipe with no flex section.

Solid mounts better use lockwashers and locktight. My car is a loose bolt machine.

Why didn't you just get an ebay downpipe. As long as its stainless steel it should be just as good as the buschur and a hell of a lot cheaper.

Edit: you could probably have an exhaust shop cut out the rusty flex section and weld in a solid piece of stainless steel.

Lol this thread is two years old he had either sold the car or the setup by now I am sure..

 

[bmoha2]

I still have the car. I switched over to a punishment racing 3 inch stainless dp, deleted the cat and welded a front section onto my Thermal Research exhaust. I still have the Buschur racing 2.5" ss dp and am thinking of selling it.

 

[DashLaflash]
