Cost to install exhaust tips

Shawn — That will do it. I was told that the exhaust needs to be replaced. Is this car worth buying and if so, how much am I looking to spend on getting the exhaust replaced?

My advice: Get it inspected by a professional used vehicle inspector. Was told this would be roughly 3 hours worth of labour from a local shop. Or am I better off getting a full system put on.

Curid — This seems reasonable, especially if the quote includes an OEM catalytic converter.

Looking to put an ARK performance exhaust on my veloster turbo should i purchase from he shop and install all in one or buy it separate? A poorly designed exhaust can hurt performance.

Hey I have a fully stock Mitsubishi Lancer and am looking to increase the sound. I have a ford taurus se and the exhuast broke from the bolt on flex pipe and i just wondering the cost for it to be weilded back to the bolt gasket. They may have a bolt-on kit for a Lexus that could be slightly modified.

My exhaust pipe cracked from muffler to exhaust tip. It sounds kinda cool on my 07 civic. I want to get a performance exhaust just for hell of it wider pipe from headers. What would total cost be parts installation.

Headers cost about the same amount. I have a Grand Prix and needs new exhaust system what should it cost me I am retired and want to know a fair price. I own a VW passat 1. Unfortunately automatic. What suggested cat back systems would you guys recommend? Also, anybody from the Cincinnati Ohio area able to recommend a good shop? Looking for sound, and performance without breaking the bank. Shawn — EuroSportTuning. Send them a message, or call and ask for Frank. Those guys have forgotten more about European performance than most shops know!

Looking for approximate estimate. I got charged I feel I was ripped off. They said it was the car had California emissions. They said I needed a new exhaust system cat-back. Does this sound reasonable? Hi Jason, I have a Maxima.

I plan on hitting some shops and start getting estimates soon, but I wanted to get your take on suggestion and potential cost. Wondering what a flowmaster exhaust system would cost on a Silverado. Any help would be appreciated. I have a toyota camry se…I really want to put a Borla exhaust. Do you have any suggestions regarding my choice or do I need to look for something else.

Buying a tuned exhaust system that fits your specific vehicle is always best. If you try and fabricate something, you can create bottlenecks in the system. I have a tk Holden Barina Sedan.

I want it to sound really nice, but the current stock exhaust is tucked away underneath. The rear bumper has no cut out and aftermarket body kits are expensive and rare. Justin — A tuned cat-back system with a dyno chart showing horsepower and torque gains. I usually point people to Magnaflow, Flomaster, Borla, Gibson, Corsa, or another major brand like that. I got a Dodge Charger sxt the get up and go blows but after the gears start switching it hauls butt I was wonder how to enhance the get up go increase speed and sound without breaking the bank what should I change to increase to speed and the get up and go.

Have you looked for an aftermarket cat-back exhaust online? I have a mustang V6 what exhaust brand will be the best for me and make lots of sound? Alex — You might check out Corsa or Borla, but the truth is there are a ton of companies making decent axle-back exhausts for that car.

Martin — You definitely have an exhaust leak somewhere. You need to get this fixed ASAP, as an exhaust leak can kill you no shit. Be sure to crawl under your car and look for a hole in the exhaust. She realized some pieces, with the inclusion of what it is like to possess a marvelous coaching mindset to get men and women just learn about chosen complex things.

Many thanks for coming up with these useful, safe, edifying and also easy guidance on this topic to Tanya. Would a high flow muffler reap any rewards? Do you recommend getting a Straight pipe or a muffler? I want to make it loud but not too loud. Thanks in advance. I have a chevy trailblazer ls. The main difference, in the end, will be the durability factor. Stainless steel can last a lifetime due to their ability to resist corrosion. Some local retailers may install the exhaust system if you purchase it them for free.

Talk with a few suppliers in your area to see if any of these promotions exist. Advertising Disclosure: This content may include referral links. Copper is in the middle of the galvanic chart with plain steel at the anodic end and stainless at the cathodic end.

The cathode always corrodes the anode. So, if the headers are stainless the copper plating will simply corrode turning that nice shade of green eventually exposing the base metal. Copper will protect a stainless nut but corrode a plain steel nut. If the headers are plain steel the copper will accelerate corrosion on the header.

Ideally you want to match anode to anode and cathode to cathode. Aluminum and plain steel are right together at the anodic end of the scale. There are special circumstances like stainless which just does not like to pass electrons even though it is at the far cathodic end of the scale.

This might extend the life of the nuts a couple of weeks. You would never use copper plated studs in aluminum. Just a follow up on the topic of Manifold bolts, studs or cap screws. I discussed the subject with the Porsche tech I use. Porsche does indeed use plain steel hardened cap screws on the exhaust manifold. Porsche's argument is that hardened steel will not gall in or corrode aluminum.

Thus it is the safest fastener for the head. The cap screws they use have a beefier head than usual and they feel it should last as long as the exhaust manifold. The techs are advised to keep an eye on them and replace them if necessary. This tech soaks them in WD40 and lets them sit for minutes.

He tries to torque them out gently and if the screw does not want to come out easily he grinds the head off which leaves enough screw proud for a Snap On easy out tool to grab. He says he has never had to use a drill. He has only had to replace them on high mileage early Boxters and 's. Not one yet. Porsche does not recommend the use of antiseize with it's cap screws.

The tech does not know why for sure but thinks that given heat cycling and vibration it may increase the risk of the screws loosening causing a leak. Automakers are very conservative with exhaust issues because of carbon monoxide. Let's give a big round a applause for the Lawyers! While Porsche may feel that their cap screws with the beefier head will last as long as the exhaust manifold, real world experience shows that this is simply not the case.

In a '97 Boxster with only 22K miles on it, five of the cap screws were frozen stuck in the exhaust manifold in This car had not been driven much in the winter and had not been exposed to road salt, etc Unless I am misunderstanding and Porsche means that as long as you don't have to remove the exhaust manifold you'll be okay.

IMO, the best course of action is to remove the cap screws and replace them with studs and to then use lock washers and nuts made of a material that will not rust solid onto the stud. Even if you have to ever have to cut off the nuts, you can still remove the exhaust manifold and then more easily access the remaining part of the stud using the same method as that recommended by the tech. You do not need winter or salt when you use plain steel in contact with stainless under high temp conditions.

Porsche is banking on the cap screws lasting as long as the header which obviously and frequently does not happen. They prefer to protect the most expensive part, the head. The screws and the header are relatively cheap. They are counting on their techs to pick up the bad screws before they become a real problem. Many, however do their own work or use indies. We here are aware of the problem and will take whatever measures are needed to prevent a big headache.

Thinking it over I think the best approach is to use Porsche's hardened cap screws and change them at intervals before they deteriorate to the point of breaking. Using studs and various fasteners is not going to get you anywhere. The problem is that you have an aluminum head and a stainless steel header, metals at opposite ends of the galvanic scale, in a high temperature environment, exposed to the elements.

There is no way to reconcile that. Fabspeed is using composite gaskets which isolate the header from the head but to my knowledge nobody has come up with a composite cap screw.
