Default WTF?? How could this happen???

I just installed T1R b-pipe and test pipe as some of you guys might know..

so it was way too loud for me and i got silentser for my spoon n1 and went for a short drive around my home. and when i parked my car at home and the Silentser is NOT THERE.. I was like WTF?? so i looked inside the muffler cuz my car is still quite and it's sucked in to the rear section pipe.. How can this **** happen?

i just got it today and tested out and got it fugged up. Grrrrrr

Don't you use the bolt that holds it in?

So the silencer was in the rear part of the axle back where it bolts up to the b-pipe or near the muffler?

Do you mean you used a wrench or just your hand?

Wow, first time I have heard of this. Hope it never happens again.

At least it didn't get stuck in the muffler

Just pull the silencer out by the retaining nut to get it out.

How the hell did it go in? From a vacum or from stopping? The pressure of the exhaust should of blown it out.

with all the talk about sucking and blowing, this thread should have a warning

BTW, dont use your hand to tighten the bolt next time

It might suck in occasionally.. i would'nt know.

Either way, thats really interesting. I nearly drove when i first put my silencer on when it wasn't put on properly. Cause i gave it a little rev and it was rattling like hell. My friends warned me it might pop out and hit something behind me... fast.

So i quickly took it off, went home to have it put on and tightly hooked

It still rattles abit under certain revs, but it's tight!

seriously though, did you expect it to stay in? I would just stick my hand in there and pull that thing out. Live and learn i guess.

yes it's still stuck and i cant get it out..

but i am out of town so when i go back i need to figure it out how to take it out..

It sounds alot quieter at like 3000 rpm or so.. but higher rpm it sounds about the same..
