New MBRP exhaust! - MuskokaZX3 - 04-15-2011
Hey all,
Just got home from work... Got my new system installed today!
So... What we had to do to an 04 sedan system to fit my 07 with gfx!
- firstly cut the stock just past the muffler
- second, attach front pipe with resonator to flexpipe (btw, my flexpipe is welded to my cat, sucks now I gotta get header and flex)
- third, cut welded tip off of tail pipe piece
- fourth, search through all the tips at work to find a duel wall 2.5" inlet!
- fifth, cut pieces of the sub fram so the new hanger will fit
- sixth test fit end piece with tip for hanger weldment
- seven, weld hanger onto right side of tail piece and insert into new hanger location.
- eight, bolt on new 6" long tip (bolt on rather than weld on so I can put a black tip o. In winter and polish my 304)
- nine, start 'er up and admire the job!
All-in-all, system is awesome and sounds even nicer than my first one on my 01 automatic!

Hey Muskoka, you work @ MBRP don't you? How do I go about getting a replacement tip for my system. When I got my system used the tip had been removed. A nice shiney replacement would be pretty sweet.

Hmm, that's a good question.... Your tip was welded on no? The tip used on my system is actually for a Tacoma system or something like that... Also the tip of my tail pipe had to be expanded so I could use the tip cuz it's 2.5 inlet! The nice thing is we also carry black powder coated tips of the same one so I can swap tips if I want...
Let me see what I can fish up though! You'll want a duel wall I assume not single wall!

I would just like a MBRP tip. When I got my exhaust used the original tip had been removed. I just have a cheap Canadian Tire turn down welded on the end and it's rusted to rat s#!t.
