So i got the top tab welded on by my buddy now i have to put the mount back on an figure out the bottom tab

Looking good, can't wait to see the final result. Pictures and test drive video of course. tongue.gif I always daydream about the possibilities of doing engine swaps and what not, then I remember I don't have a garage. >.> Nice to see someone successfully going up to a V6.

Ok i got 2 exhaust ideas floating around in my head
lmk what you guys think
Idea 1
2.25 y pipe into 2.5 flex joint. That dumps into a single muffler an angles out infront of back pass side tire
idea 2

2.25 daul exhaust. With 2 mufflers an both angle out in front of back pass side tire
Any thoughts?

I LOVE THE DUAL EXHAUST IDEA. That's likely how I'll do mine with a proper rear diffuser or something to make it look right, but I"m not sure about the coming out in front of the tire. On the off chance you one day get skirts, the exhaust might be in the way, and any water vapor that gets all dirty as the car sits, when started and driven down the road could get on the rear quarter panel. Go for a "rumbling" sound though.... especially with the v6, good a throaty would be sweet.
I got some painting done. Waiting for the lexus L to dry to put it on but.... it looks so pretty
Trace- i had the same exhaust set up on my old escort an didnt have any problems with it
The coupe will be the pretty one other than rims an a drop at some point this one will stay faiely stock

Liz- why am i seeing my engine bay the same time as 6gc
That being set it looks great
Thank you

Definitely go with true dual exhaust. Would be a shame to restrict the V6 after all that work. I'd have it go out the rear though. To me side-pipes belong on muscle cars and hot-rods. That's just me though.

If i go out the back itll be Single for sure dur to lack of room for tubing

95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy99 gt hatch beams swapped wife's94 st hatch my daily driverhttp://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=82235n
Hmm, would be better out the side then. Would be a real shame to have to run a single pipe.

2001 Miata LS 5-speed
Hon it was easier to just post it cause you know how crappy my phone is at sending pics. But your very welcome. Oh yeah i touched up your scrapes on your other parts. What would you do if you didnt have a loving wife that can do almost anything with a car for you....lol
Honestly there wouldnt be any real restiction difference in the 2 setups 2.5 single exhaust would be plenty since i wont be running a cat or a resonator. So im not to worried about that
Maybe its just me but i think side exist looks cooler than a big tip out the back

An i just seen the engine bay in person it looks amazing

Oh i'm not saying big fat fart can out the back... no way.
but this isn't bad, but I don't like them that far apart http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...xhaust&st=0
But you can get the idea, There was a user on here who had twin exhaust out the rear with like 8" chrome tips. Blued at the end. SExy sexy. but I cant find the thread or the pics right now frown.gif
Page 19 you see neon has twin tips out the back
http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...9339&st=360
page 17 through the thread you can see 808's cut exhaust tip. and that side profile....

When I do it, I'm going with something like that, except twin tips, prolly about the spacing of just inside the tails. Maybe 2-2.5' apart.

But ultimately dude - it's your car and I"m going to be excited to see it regardless of where the exhaust pipe comes out smile.gif going to be bad ass

I think at this rate it just going to come down to price
im going Monday to see how much its going tp cost
Im hoping to stay around 150 since i have the mufflers an atleast one flex tube
So ill have to wait an see but duals are sounding better an better lol
One more unique thing for one unique car lol

True dual 1MZ sounds a bit like poo poo. Have it exit like a normal car with a normal muffler. Pick up a Greddy SP2 or some other nice looking non fart can muffler.

If anything, have the exhaust shop make a Y-pipe that doesn't meet @ 90 degrees and you'll be fine.

Think i might do a y pipe an shoot it out the side till i get the magna fliw muffler i want
