Magnaflow Muffler built into trunk with Side Exit

Featured Replies

Today I did a funny thing because of the way I built the back for my car I ruined everything and anything that was stock. I wanted to do a center exit but it was too much complexity. So I cut a hole in my already insane trunk.

Shouldnt be too loud with EA82 

But with Ej205 i am sure it will suck haha

 

 

Why would you place the muffler in the car?

Its not going to be in the car to make it safe this is just the beginning of that project took me a few hours. i am going to build a box around it seal it off properly make it all air tight and hidden so I can pass inspection. Just the best place I could think of to help with ground clearance and all that. 

looks like your building the perfect pizza delivery car, the trunk warmer option.

Haha exactly!

why not just straight pipe it and be done with it

Ground clearance in what way, I've had axles hit the gas tank and exhaust piping before the muffler comes close to hitting anything

next update will explain better in pictures. Also yea no one really fabricates things these days. Instead of asking why how about you ask your self why not? That is the whole point of my truck framed RX. I wanna see how crazy I can build a car.

I saved this car from death. Its almost rust free right now. 

 

Since I cut the stock location out so I ended up moving the muffler  into a new home.

so the muffler went into a similar area just higher up so i can build skid plates and all that.

I will lift and drop this car depending on the season. Winter run a 2 inch lift with blocks and prelude springs and svx front struts and summer some type of coil overs/ground control set up. Just figuring out what to do with coil overs because I want at least 6 inches of suspension travel and that is not easy to make or buy cheaply.

That sounds like a huge pain in the rump roast

Just swapping suspension around its not gonna be to bad lol.

Starting to block this thing off this is a mock up for this box I am going to have it so I can bolt it in and use some kind 

of gasket to make it seal perfectly.
