Well here's the story I had a 96 z and had put jet hots and true duels ending in 3 inch purple hornie glasspacks on it. Well needless to say that car got totaled along with most of the exhaust system. Well i picked up a 95 and it was completely stock. After 4 months I was getting tired of it being so damn quiet. I had takin off every single part of performance I had invested into my last car and threw it into the garage to go onto the new one.

Here's where this all comes together. I thought to myself "hey I have a 3 inch purple hornie glass pack with turn down in my garage". Why not cut the intermediate pipe after the converter and have someone weld on the glasspack. So I went ahead and did it. It actually sounds pretty damn good!! I excited cause im probably getting about the performance of a aftermarket catback exhaust and I spent 10 bucks out of pocket to get it welded on there.

This is only temporary until I get the jet hot lt's and duels back onto this car. Also has anyone else done this before? I'm kinda curious cause even if I bought the glasspack that day the total cost of the system would be 60 dollars. So not a bad idea for the guys looking for good performance per dollar.

 

heh.....same exhaust I am running, Hooker Jet Hot coated LTs and purple hornies.
Lots of guys look at the hornies as too redneck but they are cheap as hell and sound damn good, I get lots of compliments on my exhaust and when I tell them what it is they they get this stupified look on thier face.
Unless you go big money and get a stainless exhaust setup most catbacks are like disposable lighters, use em up and throw em away so its not worth it to me to spend more money on a Hooker catback or similar setup when the glasspacks get the job done.

 

Hehe we think alike. I love the sound of these things. They're decently quiet when you are idling or at part throttle but scream like mad when to stomp on it. Can't wait to get a new set of headers anf purple hornies If that make me redneck then hell I'm I redneck with a damn good sounding car

 

I am going to have to hear it Mike.

Just to let ya know, the car will not be ready for the dyno today, but we are hoping for 3pm tomorrow. If you want more info PM me.
