m4a1mustang 09-15-2010 09:13 PM

Hard not to believe. You're basically removing 80% of the muffler from the system. :icon18:

kenchan 09-15-2010 09:15 PM

lol, im going to do this on my Honda Fit. :ugh2: :bowrofl:

yeah guess that's true hah, idk, i just figured that'd maybe sound leaky or raspy or something, i didnt really know what to expect ya know what i mean, you hear most exhaust leaks on a toyota tercel and sounds like complete crap, this on the other hand i think sounds quite good

ncheung85 09-16-2010 12:57 AM

just take a ratchet and loosen up the 2 nuts after the cat. that **** will roar. try one side first because 2 might be too loud. lol.

shabarivas 09-16-2010 01:01 AM

hahahahah... post sound clips for sure

Dan Z Man 09-16-2010 07:08 AM

ok i'm definitely doing it today, it's nice out, now mind you, the only thing i have to take a video is an iphone, so im warning you now the quality wont be that great lol, i should have this done around 1 o'clock or so, gotta do some things then i'll get right to it :)

Holliday 09-16-2010 07:37 AM

I just did mine today. I have been waiting for my Berk exhaust since January and my friend is about to ship it to me here in Germany. I went ahead and did this to tide me over. I have Berk HFC's and I hate rasp with a passion. This sounds amazing to me! No rasp and very little drone on the Autobahn at 120mph :) I can't believe the sound you get with 16 washers and HFC's!

For those looking for sound and don't care about gains try it out. You have absolutely nothing to loose doing this MOD. If you don't like it, take the washers out and put the gasket back in and tighten her back up.

Good luck to all who try this :tup:

Dan Z Man 09-16-2010 03:34 PM

I did this too while waiting for my exhaust for a few weeks, but promise us you'll do it right later!!! It does definitely not fail to satisfy but it's such a ******** "mod"!

the economys that bad that we resort to washer mods. :facepalm:

wilsonp 09-16-2010 04:33 PM

Maybe it is the stock muffler that is so bad?

HAHA! I just wanted to see what it would sound like and I was bored. I already ordered my Berk CBE back in January Triple's, I just installed my Berk HFC's and was ready to hear what this car can really sound like :)

I know this is a flamer mod but you can't judge it until you actually hear it for yourself. I had a friend over today to paint his inter cooler piping and he was like, "NOO, You didn't!" Then I stared it up and he shut up real quick because his jaw hit the ground.

He owns a 350Z and was very impressed with the sound these washers made, as was I when I first heard it. I do have HFC's so I can't say what the stock exhaust sounds like but I bet it sounds good either way.

yeah no worries lol, it might not be for a while, the whole "money" thing is kinda tuff right now..but when the time is right, gt haus exhaust here i come!

although on a side note, i was lurkin around the forums a bit and someone said motordyne is going to be doing 370 stuff, i might just hold off till then, i checked the products they make for the 350 and holy crap they seem pretty amazing..i hope we get a intake mani soooo bad, but yeah, that's it for now lol..

Too small of a gap and it may end up sounding like a shitty exhaust leak.

We've been running like this for almost 5000 miles. I love the sound for the pricetag... $Free - I've got more spare washers than Home Depot.

Waiting for the MotorDyne exhaust to come out. Until then, this suffices.

Someone already has a video with two washers. The video is on the closed thread, check out the link to it.

hmmm i dont think that's two washers :-/ i was checkin it over and it looks like four washers

kenchan 09-17-2010 09:25 PM

in the winter time you're going to have steam come out the washered gasket area and your car's going to look broken. :icon17:

haha this is very true, that's gonna be fun explaining to people :-P

ncheung85 09-17-2010 10:29 PM

Holliday, hook me up with some video of your ride + hfc + washer mod. I just want to see how loud is it. Might do this to my ride before i get my exhaust system.

ZForce 09-17-2010 11:18 PM

I would prolly put it back to stock in the winter time and run it only during the sunny cali days (8 months out of the year).

ZForce 09-17-2010 11:21 PM

k..this may seem like noob question, but what else would need to be loosen up to be able to get some slack to slip in 4 wahers?
