Ever fix your exhaust with beer cans?.....I have.

Sooo...I'm driving my B20 LS because my winter beater GSR has a bad fuel pump. All of a sudden, it gets REAL loud.

Here's why...

Well, I'm not about to have it fixed...I've got a new muffler to throw on this spring...but it can wait until I "officially" take the car out of storage.

So, here's my solution...

Believe me, it took a long *** time to find these cans...all because of this damn thing:

Anyway, I cut the ends off the beer cans, and then I cut them down the middle, and wrapped the sheet of aluminum around the exhaust pipe, like so:

Then I wrapped some coat hanger around the pipe and the exhaust hanger that had broken away from the pipe (leaving the hole):

The result...GOOD AS NEW! Well, maybe not, but it got me to the bar tonight with no fear of getting pulled over...

Get me an avocado, a snorkel, and an ice pick...TRUST ME BRO...!
