I went to my local muffler shop here in Naples Fla. (a good one).. and had them put on a 9x14" Magnaflow under the drivers space.. Also had them put on the tailpipe, and bend it to fit around and out an inch behind the back bumper on the left side.. (using the factory hanger was my requirement.. All welded.. slight slash cut on the tip..

PROBLEM.. although sounds swell, and I can hear it now..! with the soft plastic out and the windows down.. IT IS SUCKING UP THE EXHAUST..!!

I am wondering if anyone might know the aerodynamic configs for tailpipe placement to get the gasses sucked away, instead of into the vehicle??

Tip out at an angle??

Stuck out farther behind the bumper..?

Maybe pointed down some??

the original one didn't seem that special in outlet placement...

I am going back there today to talk to the owner and see what recommendations he has..

Any input from you mechanical engineers would be helpful..:confused:

Thanks..!!

 

Maybe if it came out to the side just behind the rear tire?

 

thats wierd... ill take one guess though. Are you sure theres no leaks in the pipe?

 

Thanks fellas.. I went back by there today and we discussed the possibilities of putting it on the other side, (where the stock one came out). But I* didn't want that.. So we put a slash cut turn down on it (for free).. WORKS FINE.. no smell on the way home with the windows down and the back canvas open.. No leaks in the welds either.***Will post pictures in my gallery here in a bit.***..

Would recommend them to anyone in the lower west coast of fla. 182.00 total cost including the stainless Magnaflow 6x9 oval.. :toung:

 

you are not supposed to drive with on ly the back window open. It creates a vaccum in the cab srawing in exhasut fumes. If you take out the rear side windows too you won't have anymore issues.

Eventhough you cant smell it anymore I woudnt advise driving like that. Carbon Monoxide is what you should be concerned about and that you can't smell.

 

I DID HAVE THE SIDE WINDOWS OUT AS WELL.. all the zip out plastic.. and the 2 ft. windows open...

But problem appears to be solved now.. Will paint it BLACK.. soon.. (the muffler tip..!)
