Anyone ever tried it?

I need a new muffler and theres a set on seattle craigslist that fit my pipes for cheaper than a generic replacement.

 

not somethin u see everyday but i guess it could work...not sure why you would do that but have at it

It will probably be pretty loud. Its like putting glasspacks on your car. If the mufflers are old and the glass packing is no good it will be even louder.

 

I wouldn't do it, but that's just me. Are you replacing a stock muffler or a cheap aftermarket? If the car is already too loud, this will probably make it worse. If you are looking for power gains, just buy a cat-back system that is designed for your car.

 

pretty sure it'd quiten it down actually. we put a 954rr SILENCER on a ford fairmont and you couldnt hear it. you cannot see through it. factory SILENCERS are very restrictive.

 

generic replacements are only like $20... you need cheaper than that?

 

I did it years ago. It takes some work with the welder and scrap piping to make the inlet work. It was quiet.
