well, after trying to drill holes for my 5 pt harness i noticed something... I DRILLED right into my exhaust! And my friend was there to look and laugh!

the canister looking thing between the cat and the muffler! (is there a name for this thing?)

theres a nice 7/16" hole in it now and i'm just shocked how my hands were so careless with a drill

Is there anything I can use to "patch" this hole up or should i go get it welded at midas?

Genius strikes gold! well, atleast my exhaust piping

...oh well the hardest part is over...and i look black from all the soot and crap underneath the car

Took pictures! Will post soon!

Go to pepboys. They have something that adhears to the small holes that like that will act like a band aid.

Good job ace

 

JB Weld

 

That's the resonator. Without it, your exhaust would be even louder and raspier.

 

Better than drilling through your brake lines would have been

 

That would be your resonator......easy fix. You get the

 

sheeit, hole in resonator=better flow, leave that **** poked.

 

hahaha..... your application to we-todd-did racing is in the mail... hahaha... oh ****.

weld a patch on it. good as new.

D

 

D: i'll be waiting for the application in the mail

 

LMFAO.......way to go ace

 

Not as bad as the stereo (amp or CD changer) install in an RX-7 tt (FD3 ?) where they put a hole in a $750 gas tank! LOL

 

OWNED!!! and not even by the wankel suprisingly enough...

 

that happened to a kid in the integra forum back in the day...good ole best buy installers grounded his stereo into the gas tank

nice work! i was thinking it would be cool if i drilled into my tires while i was putting the autopower in....

 

LMAO...nice one... I probably would have been laughing too if I was there.

 

you could even get a little piece of aluminum flashing with jb weld and then use a stainless screw fastener and tighten it around everything.

 

Nice... oh well, it could have been worse.

LoL, man that is terrible... that sounds something like my dumbass would do. I just have bad luck like that hehe

 

14 yrs ago, my friend were installing one of those goose neck EQ on the side of the center console of his 88 MR2 SC. After mounting the base, he notice a red liquid coming out from back side of carpet. It end up to be Red Antifreeze!
He drilled into the Radiator lines which runs along the center frame of the chassis.
Cheap *** EQ end up with an expensive repair

 

So you made some Speed holes in your exhaust...
I dont see the problem

 

jb weld is your freind

 

cut up an old pop can and use hoes clamps to attach it. it actually works. I used to do that. not on my teg tho but other crap cars. It works leak free.!

 

 

holy krap! who brings back posts from last summer to offer advice?

I know tom is a dumbass and all, but after 15 months, even he probably figured out how to fix it.
