Default Test pipe.

The bottom of my cat rotted out yesterday (sunday) and nothing was open. So i threw in a test pipe that i made with 2.25" piping.

It sounds like i have a fart can now. Or a huge exhaust leak. Most of the noise is comming from where my test pipe is, so its probably an exhaust leak...

Damn rusty exhaust bolts. Took me so long on a gravel driveway, no jack, had to dig a trench underneeth....

I think tonight, ill run out and buy a nice new 2.25" cat and weld it in since the stores are open.

Vent.. Kinda.

I feel spoiled now. I thought I had it bad when I had to park my car up in the grass, after I drive down the side walk about 10 feet.

do test pipes make your car faster or slower ...stock n swap? i have heard both, that crx/hatchs need back pressure etc...

As long as you have a full exhaust with the right size piping after the test-pipe you shouldnt notice any loss in back pressure..
And as far as the power increase ..that depends what motor set-up you have..
