AND189 · 12-17-2009, 07:19 AM

hey i have been throwing the idea of getting a 2nd axle back muffler and cutting it open and welding in a u pipe so the muffler is bypassed i have driven with the muffler detached i found a huge difference in speed/ engine response so i will cut the muffler open weld in the u pipe seal it and weld it back so it all looks stock, aim to get a littal more speed/ engine response and a better sound any thoughts ???

Why spend the money on a muffler? Just run a straight pipe.

because mate, i want it to look stock

you can delete, the rear muffler , but
you will not meet the noise restrictions , which i
beleave is the same as NZ 95. D/B .
Even if you did what i did inlarging the excit of the rear muffler to 2.5"
the bend required to make it look stock is to tight to be any advantage .

AND189 · 12-18-2009, 07:46 PM

Once you open the muffler you will see that it divides into two chambers. The exhaust goes into chamber one and then through a area with a trap door of sorts till it reaches the exit pipe. What i did was connect the main exhaust pipe directly with the exit pipe bypassing all the chambers and thats it. Weld the muffler shut and nobody can tell it has a surgery has been performed and well you saw the video so you know how it sounds. Looks just like a OEM yaris muffler.

if I say so myself haha

ezhacker1 · 12-20-2009, 06:25 PM

how high was the rpm in the video? How much would it cost to do this surgery?

Black Yaris · 12-20-2009, 06:28 PM

just get an electronic exhaust open dump valve

if you install this just b4 your muffler, you will be able to electronicly open the exhaust with the flip of a switch

It goes up to the limiter. I charged $100 to replace and a core muffler. I haven't done any in a while. I did quite a few here localy, but the Yaris is not the popular go fast car around year so only a few people really wanted them.
